Technically it's neither true or untrue because there is no proof god is or isn't real. But from a logical standpoint you take untrue in this situation.

Sir William Mitchell Ramsay, a renowned archaeologist and biblical historian, initially questioned the historical accuracy of the Book of Luke and Acts of the Apostles. However, after extensive research and archaeological fieldwork, particularly in Turkey, he became convinced of their reliability, even becoming a Christian himself. He is particularly known for his work on the historical context of the Book of Luke and Acts, demonstrating their accuracy in describing the social, political, and cultural landscape of the ancient world.


Overwhelmed by the evidence he uncovered, Ramsay became a Christian and a strong proponent of Luke's historical credibility.

Ramsay was educated in the Tübingen school of thought (founded by F. C. Baur)[1] which doubted the reliability of the New Testament, but his extensive archaeological and historical studies convinced him of its historical accuracy.[2] From the post of Professor of Classical Art and Architecture at Oxford, he was appointed Regius Professor of Humanity at Aberdeen.[3]

Specifically, Ramsay's studies in Asia Minor led him to accept the trustworthiness of Luke's account in the Book of Acts. He wrote:
"I may fairly claim to have entered on this investigation without any prejudice in favour of the conclusion which I shall now attempt to justify to the reader. On the contrary, I began with a mind unfavourable to it for the ingenuity and apparent completeness of the Tubingen theory had at one time quite convinced me. It did not lie then in my line of life to investigate the subject minutely but more recently I found myself often brought in contact with the book of Acts as an authority for the topography, antiquities, and society of Asia Minor. It was gradually borne in upon me that in various details the narrative showed marvellous truth."[14]
Regarding the authorship of the Pauline epistles Ramsay also concluded that all thirteen New Testament letters ostensibly written by Paul were in fact authentic.

God has mercy on all our souls.

We are all sinners and in need of mercy.

God loves everyone.

It's nothing more then the same love from an abusive boyfriend. One who dictates what the rules are and gets angry and punishes you for acting against his will.

I reject such a relationship.

It’s true.




As discussed ad nauseum in these forums, evidence that any parts of the Bible are true does not therefore make all of it true.

For example, parts of the story about Santa are true, but we know the full, midern story is not.

You don't have a soul and there is no God. Don't worry -- You're lucky to be alive at all.

Babies who get cancer are sinners?

Let me guess - an abuser abuses you, because they love you?

And no, I don't "hate" god any more than I "hate" the tooth fairy or bigfoot. They're allthings that human beings made up.

Anatomists have studied the body very carefully and there is no soul. It's made up, like everything about religion. It may make you feel good, while alive, but there is no soul in you body.

I would love to see some evidence of the "good" work this "good" god is in charge of that he is doing for us every day supposedly? And Jesus did not die...even if you believe the story, he was gone for 2 days and now is "alive" again? I know of people that really DID die as a sacrifice to save others. They aren't gods, though.

May God change your heart. May he release the stronghold your abuser has on your life. May he give you strength to move past darkness and live life in His glory and light. May you find forgiveness of yourself and choose to see His true love for what it is. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

This is as much bunk as religious beliefs might be. Physicists believe as much as 97% of the universe is dark matter. Who knows what we don’t know. We know very little about how we got here and how the universe was formed.

We may not yet know how the universe was formed, but we do know about the human body and we know there is no soul.

Religion is made up. Science is not.
