No, it's not something I can't discuss rationally, it's somthing that frequently gets into talmudic detail, and becomes unbelievably boring. Gensis, Job, Mark or Peanuts, none of the references have any basis in anything except pure superstition.

If you chose to argue Plato and Homer, or the Egyption histories, at least you'd have something more solid to base the arguments on, although they'd be no more likely to be factual.

All opinions about "God" are constructs of men to explain what they don't know or understand. And are usually beliefs instilled by upbringing, not logic.

But, do we really want to go in this direction? I'd just as soon drop the subject and discuss different things.

As Gem is desperately trying to do: I'll vote in favor of capital punishment as punishment, and nothing else.
