laughable.
I actually am glad to see so many young people questioning the validity of the Bible these days.
I have been questioning it for over 60 years, and still find it totally absurd.

Bitch about it if you want, No one should care care about anyone elses' opinion
regarding religion....these evangelicalistic sarah palins and dippy congressman are disturbing.
No ONE knows what happens when we die...so why try to PLEASE someone who never existed, and threatens us with hell and damnation if we don't "obey?"????????????

And I WOULD DEFINITELY NEVER try to please someone who keeps teeling me that he gave
his only begotten son....if someone ASKED ME TO DO that I would Christopher Hitchen them!!!!
