    Do the numerous mistakes in the Bible play a part in driving people away from religion?

    But do you see thousands of metaphors?

    Do the numerous mistakes in the Bible play a part in driving people away from religion?

    Are you referring to the theory of thousands of metaphors in the Bible? That's something you'd have to tell yourself if the only "spiritual book" you have is the Bible. I doubt this matters. When people learn about the Bible, even if they accept that it may have errors in it, it is the...

    Do the numerous mistakes in the Bible play a part in driving people away from religion?

    Do ex-Christians or "Christians by name" tend to think that since the Bible is flawed, religion is false?

    Why is science knowledge not considered more important than religious belief?

    I was using you in singular and basing my claim on past discussions with a particular poster.

    "Only God can judge me!" Religious debates rerun

    Even if they were — which they're not — you wouldn't be able to know that for certain, but I doubt that would stop you from blindly believing in it.

    Why is science knowledge not considered more important than religious belief?

    I thought it sounded pretentious since I know how much you loath us.

    Why is science knowledge not considered more important than religious belief?

    I literally linked a whole document explaining that not all reflexes are learned and more. Sucking the thumb, for a baby, is a reflex. I thought you studied this stuff.

    Qatari sociologist blames plastic surgery, blasphemy, homosexuals for Beirut blast in expletive-fill

    I guess I just don't place that many expectations on people who happen to be sociologists, doctors, scientists or ministers. If you insist on making things complicated... Do you actually know if he labled himself a sociologist when publishing the video or if it was just the title of the...

    Are there questions God doesn't want you to ask?

    Acts 2:23 this Man, delivered over by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God, you nailed to a cross by the hands of godless men and put Him to death. Source: 138 Bible verses about God, All Knowing

    Qatari sociologist blames plastic surgery, blasphemy, homosexuals for Beirut blast in expletive-fill

    He didn't "blame homosexuals". If you listened to his speech, regarding homosexuals he said, "Lebanon is famous for the prevalence of sodomy and the abundance of homosexuals in it." that's it. That's all he said regarding it. He also said in the beginning, ".. This might be the reason..." did...

    Why is science knowledge not considered more important than religious belief?

    In other words, you have absolutely no idea. which individual fish first learned, due to genetic reasons, that it can use electricity as a weapon? It wasn't a behaviour before the first one(s) did it. Did they have the organs for it randomly for ages and then one day the fish realized they work...

    Qatari sociologist blames plastic surgery, blasphemy, homosexuals for Beirut blast in expletive-fill

    This is what's called denial. Big dif :rolleyes: Do you like public panic? What is the reason you need the Lebanese to concentrate on "unsafe storage conditions"? Does it help the homeless? Has it been proven the reason for the explosion was simply "unsafe storage conditions"? He's not...

    Qatari sociologist blames plastic surgery, blasphemy, homosexuals for Beirut blast in expletive-fill

    I mean, based on what are you claiming he wants to divert attention from the explosion? It did not even occur to me. You must have some valid reasoning — and preferably solid proof — for suggesting that. I find nothing unusual about his speech. It's not a shocker and I don't know how you came...

    Qatari sociologist blames plastic surgery, blasphemy, homosexuals for Beirut blast in expletive-fill

    It's not a personal opinion — at least not as a whole. Personally, I could not care less about anybody's education in a case like this. It is simply irrelevant. What you can't face, is that what he says, from the Islamic point of view, is true. It must be the fact that he's attacking your values...

    Qatari sociologist blames plastic surgery, blasphemy, homosexuals for Beirut blast in expletive-fill

    First of all, what he's saying shows he has at least some education on islam — which is what he's speaking about. Secondly, if he wasn't, the point is what he's saying. Focusing on his profession seems like purposeful deviation from the point he's making. Not to mention how your comment — if...

    Why is science knowledge not considered more important than religious belief?

    But you haven't proven that. You can't. You assume. That tries to explain how the body of the fish creates electricity. We know it has a special system inside it that makes it possible. But where do those come from? Why would fish have those? Does evolution explain why some fish have those and...
