Jesus spoke in parables

A LOT

So you can't take absolutely everything literally that's where interpretation comes in

It is a love letter, not a history/science book

> Some stuff is figurative
@Riddle Provide an example, please?

Idk what it is about Ellen degeneres but she always looks so sad

Legit adam and eve

But we know natural selection is what happens

@Al <3 The bible says that if you have enough faith and tell a mountain to throw itself into the ocean, then it would do so

there is no fruit to provide knowledge

it's only the "should i listen to god" lesson or not

bruh

> @Al <3 The bible says that if you have enough faith and tell a mountain to throw itself into the ocean, then it would do so
@BrightPopz I see. Could it possibly be referring to the “glorified bodies”?

But one thing I don't get

Why are you telling people how to follow their faith when you don't even believe in their faith

That's actually bs

because traditions are cool

There's alot of ways to interpret the Bible

the bible has many contradictions but christians make up for it saying shit like "oh well he's all knowing, he knows what to do"

"just accept it"

Ever heard the bible saying that, with god you could do anything?

but..... u can

> the bible has many contradictions but christians make up for it saying shit like "oh well he's all knowing, he knows what to do"
@Atari That is bullshit. Read the original. No contradictions.

As long as you don't incite violence against others using the Bible, it doesn't matter how you interpret it

@Al <3 100%

“… with God all things are possible.” — Matthew 19:26

“…The LORD was with Judah; and he drave out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.” — Judges 1:19

And... name three. If the Bible has “many contradictions” name three.

Boom, biblical contradiction.

Bush

You must remember that the old and new testament were written at very different times

So you couldn't do anything with God until the new testament?

Both long before modern science

the bible is just cringe

the churches used it to indoctrinate people to do what they want

it's a false hope

@BrightPopz Once again.. You’re using this wrong. If they weren’t *able* to drive out those in the valley, it’s because it wasn’t intended to be that way.

Not all churches

You're entitled to believe that

That is objectively true

As long as you don't look down on people of faith I am not too fussed about it
