I believe that someone's going to send me a couple hundred kilos of gold, so far I'm still waiting.

@TMDOMarie55 the principle is the same

and no, you cant 'update' holy texts

thats a little thing called blasphemy

or is it heresy

technically i think its heresy

spreading false teachings

how would anyone change the word of God?

@SANCTIONED, you just advanced to level 9!

> so going reddit atheist mode and saying 'hurr well there was a reason back then but not now' doesnt work
@ImNotGas That is exactly how bible stories are explained in apologetics. Like exactly.

@SANCTIONED per james j, weigh the pros and cons lmao

pre or post everyone has their suppositions by which they live ... else they are inconsistent

@Zuluzeit theres a reason they are called protestants and not catholics or orthodox

@james j that isn’t how religion works. You don’t weight the pros and cons - I’m not sure what you mean

Are you a leftist god believer?

"what god really meant by thou shalt not steal is its ok to do so if your hungry"

I’m talking about an alternative moral frame work than modern religious provides @TMDOMarie55 eating pork was a example

I lean the way i feel. Still working shit out with God,

@james j so, leftist dogma

@Ghostdog you know those are not comparable

we've already told you leftism is like a religion

The American People as a whole have been complaining since The very Begining. https://www.senate.gov/about/officers-staff/vice-president/VP_John_Adams.htm

Real liberals Noah Fairy Tail when they are it.

you have the original sin of 'privilege'

you apologize for your sin constantly

@ImNotGas if they are both dogmas I would pick the one that uses more analytical thought to come to conclusions

> "what god really meant by thou shalt not steal is its ok to do so if your hungry"
@ImNotGas Yes, chock full of sliding scales and moral relativism. Hardly immutable and infallible, at the very least.

@Zuluzeit it is infallible, the interpretation is fallible

@ImNotGas my point exactly. These are what people believe to be holy texts. Not people just “making things up”

the same tales we are all told...i just don't like to offend.

"im so sorry my ancestors were colonizers please take my money government"

> @Zuluzeit it is infallible, the interpretation is fallible
@ImNotGas Seems like infallible would come with a workable way to communicate infallibly. Js.

Moral framework is basic logic

You don't want me to laugh at you because you believed in God?

you can laugh at whoever you please

@ImNotGas if you are Christian the answer to your stealing question is no you can’t. Period

> Moral framework is basic logic
@inwa Well said.

I was saying earlier how trumpism and the belief of the kraken is very much parallel to religious thinking. It’s why I think people already religious are prone to and willing to believe in trump/kraken tales
