[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sin is literally absence of God. Where he doesn’t exist. He gives life. Life requires light. Darkness is the absence of light, and hell is that place without a bridge to return to his presence. That is why there will be weeping and moaning and v asking if teeth. Unbearable emotional pain is something indescribably endless. Imagine being suicidal from emotional pain and not being able to escape it even in death. Put it in that context.[/quote] Put it in the context of someone who reads an ancient book written for ancient, mainly illiterate people who had it read to them, if they knew about it at all -- and believes it! 2,000 years later![/quote] I do. Do you believe in Greek mythology 6yr bc? How about how it shaped the study of astronomy and the ability to bet on Elon musk using digital currency to send a Tesla to the moon? You know that language changes and some things are lost in translation? The Bible is a respected text that is validated by many others including the Torah and Qur’an And ... astrology too [/quote] Yes, the Bible is a respected text. And it's no more to be believed in than Greek Mythology.[/quote] I wouldn’t take it I literally, but there are a lot of old myths in the Bible that probably came from something first. Noah and his ark, for example, are now suspected to be a story of survival of the annual deluges in that part of the Middle East. [b]I can believe there’s a kernel of truth in some of the stories.[/b][/quote] There's a kernel of truth in most stories -- that's why they are told and evolve. But it's no reason to believe they are factual and must be believed under pain of hell. We have Aesop's fables and Greek and Roman mythology that are full of kernels of truth - but no one is told or forced to believe them.[/quote]
