hmm.. i'm reading it right now. so far he is just finding random quotes from the old testament. and yes he is right, if you dont read the whole thing some of the things he quotes and highlights can be very very disturbing
.. personally i dont really take the old testament too literally. i mean, i do understand it was passed on by mouth, and than written down by a variety of people. i think mainly .. the essence of it, is what christians and other religions truthfully look at.
but its an interesting link, i cant really judge it yet cuz i havent read the whole thing. so far its interesting
Edit: he has some good points on the website. i mean... yeah whoever reads this will think twice before believing literally what the old testament says.
i hope nobody gets offended by this link it is only an opinion and criticism by this person. he is entitled to his own interpretation. as i said before EVERYBODY sees things differently. he has the right to doubt/not believe etc. so lets not argue over this. besides sometimes its encouraged to look from a different point of view and not be tunnel visioned.
on a different note: my head hurts from this thread lol.. i'm going out to watch a movie
.. hopefully something stupid so i can stop thinking
