The only problem is how do you know WHAT light is real, and WHAT God? There have been and are, many many Gods- and all people are convinced their God is the correct one. If you believe in God I am quite sure you are altogether convinced that you have the one true faith- whatever that faith happens to be. You might be right, or perhaps EVERYONE can be right, or maybe no one is right. There is simply no way to know. Perhaps it is you who are fooled. Perhaps it is Solon. Perhaps we are ALL fooled. I am certain we are all fools, even you.

Message 14067624 Above your eyes is a link for you to click on, Greg. It will give you the point of view of an former Christian minister. You accuse me of quoting something out of context, but you neither mention what, in particular, you are referring to, nor what the missing context is, nor how you resolve these fatal flaws that belie the assertion that the bible is inerrant, and the perfect word of a perfect God. I am not going to do your thinking for you. If you make an accusation that I am quoting something out of context, then make that argument for the thread. You do know what quoting out of context means, don't you? So give us the context of these atrocities. I would enjoy having your comment (and the proper context) on all my quotes each and every day, together with your interpretation. Clearly, I could just quote the whole chapter and bold ALL the contradictions and atrocities, etc., but I won't presume to guess at what context you presume to suggest is missing from my bible quotes of God's written words. WE are going to see a lot of God's words and look at their self contradiction, inaccuracy, and so on. Now, when you tell me what is out of context in my quotes, I will respond to your criticism. You will have the opportunity to do this every day!
