Nullius in verba (Latin for "on the word of no one" or "take nobody's word for it") is the motto of the Royal Society.
Faith is strictly forbidden from science.
science relies on proving everything. till date, it has found barely any proof of a god
Pi is science and Pi debunks god. For starters.
That's just one of the many.
You can prove some biblical lines wrong your pi example
Are the same passages in the Quran?
If it has 1 (one/uno) baloney, then it is no reference manual
The koran is worse.

lmao
The Quran claims to be written by divine inspiration
the bible not so much
The bible claims infallibility
Where?
That's just a link to the concept of biblical infallibility
scholars argue over this
while you can't argue over quranic infallibility
since it crushes the faith
The Quran was written by Mexican terrorists
It was written by a crossdressing nonce
If it has 1 baloney, it gets shelved next to Gone with the Wind. Another fiction story with some historical truth and a good moral.
I don’t think you could classify the Bible as fiction, though, since that’s not the intent it was written with. The worst you could say about it is that it’s poetry and fables from a particular culture interspersed with politically motivated history, but that’s a far cry from calling it fiction
The view that the Bible was written to 'control people' is basic and superficial at best.
If anything, it was the culmination of the moral teachings at the time that ended up persisting through for a variety of reasons.
The same systemic values you can find pretty much everywhere, and they all have a common root in biology.
Hairy Potter was a big seller to.
The Dead Sea Scolls read like the Potter isle at Barnes and Noble.
Ver 1, Ver 1.a, Ver 2, Ver 2 in Greek.
It was just a popular story amongst illiterate goat herders that had no clue.
Then the intellectuals of 1k CE polished it for 500 years.
They still missed a lot of holes though.
It absolutely was not written by “illiterate goat herders” lol
It fully was
then why was the story in oral tradition for 1k years before it saw parchment and quill?
The new testament wasn't even recorded in real time.
GG @wuzamarine, you just advanced to level 6!
Perhaps it was, but the people that compiled it were some of the most educated people of their time. It’s not intellectually honest to discount it as being the product of the uneducated
3rd tier to.
There are also copies of the New Testament from long before 1000CE, and that’s not even getting into the Old Testament, which is far older than that
The New Testament was started 50 years after the fact. That was only the first couple of paragraphs.
The edits continued up until the 1500s
They’re both a load of horseshit
That bible has more holes than swiss cheese
Ok? 50 years is not that long when you’re dealing with ancient documents. It’s certainly not 1000 years, which is what you initially said
The people who wrote it to was to politically control the masses

How many old vets do you know that are not full of shit?
