I don't "condemn" what you call "scripture," which is, after all,
nothing more than what religious believers of any faith think is
"sacred," or even central to their faith. To the extent that "scripture"
instructs mankind to "do good," "help others," "judge not," et cetera,
it is a positive influence. When "scripture" is used to justify hate,
exclusion, selfishness, wrath, et cetera, it is a negative influence.

Unfortunately, there's plenty in "scripture" that can be interpreted or
misinterpreted hundreds of different ways, some good, some not so good,
and too often the "not so good" is used as a rationale for aberrant,
anti-social behavior.



I'm glad you brought that up, Harry. It's fascinating that you never
or should I say 'rarely, point out any of the good of the Bible, yet
are quick to choose it's verses that you interpret to be nothing but
blood, bigotry, hatefulness, incest, anti-science, slavery, down on
women and the like. Then, it shows everyone here that is what you feel
the Bible stands for,

so evidently you're a bible believer too.
And who is a bible believer? An accurate answer would be "anyone who
says he or she is."




Too funny...



If only you were really skilled in something, little ****...you've got
the idiot part down pat...you could evolve into an idiot savant. But
there is just nothing you do well.
