You have a really strage definition of "prove" when it comes to your religion imo. A system of logic that applies one method to one source, and refuses to apply the same method to any other source is obviously inherently flawed.

The people (humans) who wrote the books in the bible obviously had no idea where the sun went at night and didn't know what stars are. Why would I believe their bronze-age stories about the nature and origin of the universe? They are simply not a reliable source.

Furthermore: Bronze-age moral philosophy is a joke! It's puzzling to me without end how anyone would look for moral guidence in a document that fails to condemn slavery and fails to condemn treating women as property.

And equally important: Why would I then not believe all other bronze-age stories to be equally true? How do you know King Unis did not hunt down gods to eat them? How do you know all the other bronze-age creation myths are wrong?

Compare the manuscript evidence between the Bible and other bronze-age creation stories. You'll then understand the difference.

No, I don't. But maybe you can explain to me what you think the difference is because I really don't see any. And any claim that the bible is a "God given book" based on claims in that book (or books based on it) is just ridiculous. I hope you can see that.

Yes. I can see the problems with a claim that the Bible is true because it says so, especially to one who doesn't already trust it. A implies A just doesn't prove all that much. That was why I was suggesting you examine the manuscript evidence.pic.twitter.com/WeMlsBBshX

I grew up in a catholic family. Even wanted to become a priest at one point as a child because I believed the nonsense for a little while. But then I grew up. My youngest brother turned out differently and even got a university degree in theology.

My other brothers doesn't vaxinate his children bc he believes that this is safer and he also believes that belief is inherently morally supperior to knowledge, thus he refuses to do any research on the topic, bc no matter the outcome, in his mind he'd lose moral superiority.

* other brother (singular) * vaccinate I wish I'd be exaggerating but unfortunatly I'm not. This was literally the topic of the last longer conversation we had. I'm still angry because of how stupid his position is! I'm now completely avoiding talking to him.
