“The work of God”?

The king James Bible, or the Old Testament?

Both of which are just a collection of stories, most of which were written years (in many cases 100's of years) after they were supposed to have happened. They have been translated and transcribed so many times that the message of the original stories have been diluted so much, that I'd be surprised if 5% were even close to the original message. In the case of the King James Bible, it was written by servants of the ruling class as a tool to control the uneducated, and no doubt changed to suit the narrative of the king.

I'm not going to mock anyone who follows any religion, but it's not for me.

In early versions of the bible there were stories of fire breathing flying dragons and even people flying. When they realised people were questioning these things, they omitted them in re-writes.

Since Enlightenment every single thing in there has been questioned and apart from the odd moral you can take from some of the fables, the whole thing needs omitting from literature.

I wouldn’t mind if Enlightenment was a few decades ago but it was 300 years ago now and we still have people believing in religions.

Been posted before but this seems like the correct place, not a god just Karma and Karma is a woman. If I could take emotion out of the situation then I would be treating this virus with apathy. The fact that the young in general seem to mainly escape its clutches seem almost designed even though I know it’s not.

For clarification, which god are you referring to here?

We are indubitably a virus.

Which re-written version to keep trying to mask and omit as much of the bollocks, inconsistencies, proved falsities and fantasies of the Bible is that?

There’s no such thing as God and Jesus never existed. They’re just personified stories of the Sun.

I’m no scholar, so I don’t know exactly why some books were taken out of the King James Bible, and left in the one the Orthodox use. But I do know, most will say the same thing, just translated differently.

You can’t prove that God doesn’t exist, just as I can’t prove to you he does. That’s your opinion and I respect that. As for Jesus, as a man there is plenty of historical evidence of him. Josephus, a Roman historian confirms this earliest.
