Topic	Have you read the bible?
TyVulpine 11/08/19 11:06:28 AM #68:	Unbridled9 posted... People used to think the Roman gods existed. Theyve been disproven. People used to think the Egyptian gods existed. Theyve been disproven. People used to think the Greek gods existed. Theyve been disproven. Why does the god of the Bible get a free pass? Because you decided to associate 'no longer believes in' with 'disproven'. The Greek Gods got effectively warped into the Roman pantheon and both the Roman and Egyptian pantheons got bodied HARD by Christianity and Islam respectively. The reason no one believes in them isn't because of science disproving them but because new religions came in and displaced them. If you look hard enough you might even still be able to find believers in those pantheons but they won't be a large number. And it's not like those were the only three pantheons and religions to exist either. You'll still find plenty of people believing in stuff like Hinduism and you can even find some Zoroastrians if you know where to look. So I don't really see what your 'point' here is. People claimed the Greek gods lived on Mount Olympus and had a huge table there where they ate ambrosia. Funny enough, nobody thought to just run up there and check for themselves. If they had, they'd see that there's NOTHING ON MOUNT OLYMPUS that proves the existence of any gods. Same with the Roman gods. A lot of stories, but zero physical or scientific evidence to back up the claims. Same with the god of the bible. A lot of stories and a lot of claims, but zero evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the god exists. It is amusing how people of a particular faith will always handwave away any discussion or logical reasoning against the existence of their chosen deity. --- Fall down, go boom... Life is like a box of chocolates. Most of it is crap. <cite>TyVulpine posted [p:929845990] in Have you r...
