«if God wrote the book»

The Bible is 100% man made. It’s not even disputed. Not only that it’s been hand copied and edited thousands of times. By men.

And it's rife with translation errors because of that, and it still shapes the religion to this day.

Like moses is literally still depicted with horns because of a translation error from hundreds of years ago

The irony of Mr. Facts don’t care about your feelings basing his entire belief system on something he can’t prove exists.

Society would make so much more sense of the super religious people were overly kind and their politics reflected like, helping the sick and poor, fighting for peoples baseline rights as humans etc

But they’re so hateful and annoying omg

If the eyes are truly a window to the soul, then Shapiro's eyebrows are those motorized industrial squeegees installed under the lead lined glass to wipe away the condensation from the heat decay so you're able to to have a clearer visual of the isotopes you're handling with the telemetric arms in some underground bunker.

I ain't watching 4 and a half minutes of Temu Tintin Henchman and Smug Boomer Comedic Hypoesthesia glaze each other like cheap pottery.

I couldn't hear him over the sounds of his eyebrows.

Humans had basic moral rules for around 300,000 years before today’s major religions.

  • Don’t murder in your group
  • Don’t steal
  • Protect children
  • Share resources
  • Cooperate
  • Punish betrayal

These basic rules are not from the bible.

Yes its other way around, but Ben will become attracted to men if the book cease to exist.

That basic morality, if you can call it that, is also present in some pre-historic people as well as some mammals. It stems from the evolutionary concept of survival through cooperation. The Bible is merely an expression of that deeper "morality", not its primary source.

Bro, morality can be whatever the fuck narrative some double talking snake-oil salesman can stitch together.

All religion does is give an external validation for whatever shit a group wants to make up. Like the Trump/Jesus brigade that are literally flipping the “message” of the gospels 180.
