The Catholic church has constantly held their beliefs, because they were "sent from god". The Catholics wanted Copernicus killed because he had the crazy idea that our universe is heliocentric. The bible is infallable? The bible was a book written by MEN. That is why it is at fault.
If God was all powerful, why would he care on spreading his word? That's like the president coming up to you and reminding you that he is such. It's illogical.
I love how you keep coming up with
Biblical examples why the Bible is the word of God. I could tell you all day that I am god. I'll even write a book about it. Does that make me God? It could, just as well as the bible could be the word of god. If you believe so blindly about this, get your system checked.
The bible is symbolism. Why don't people get that? Things were written in numbers not because they were SPECIFIC countings, they were symbolic representations. The bible is not a law. Any law is subject to change. Where would we be now in America if the Constitution was not changed? The bible was a guideline for law that the framers had in mind for THAT time.
Science has consistently and thoroughly proved religion wrong. Religion is a scare tactic. I know priests. As I said before, I listened to them talking while inebriated. People need religion in their life because it makes them feel important, more than that tiny nano-molecule of pathetic existence in a vast, uncountable universe without end. If it brings comfort to you at the end of the day, wouldn't you believe it? Why do you think America doesn't show you about all the innocent kids we kill every day to protect what we have?
Religion is just something weak people ned to have so they have a reason to exist without making something out of their lives.
