God Never Spoke to Moses or the Hebrews (Page 5)

ghostgeek: I guess that's religion for you. It inverts everything. What seems sane and logical is derided by the faithful, who then go on to claim the most outlandish nonsense.

DontNeedChrist: As if talking volcanoes aren't nonsense. Of course not.

ghostgeek: I agree with you DNC. Talking volcanoes are what fairytales are made of. Not that the Bible describes a talking volcano.

DontNeedChrist: Correct, only you do, but you don't speak of nonsense. You wouldn't even think of it.

ghostgeek: Deuteronomy 5:5, DNC:

"I stood as an intermediary between you and the LORD, for you were afraid of the fire and did not want to approach the mountain. He spoke to me, and I passed his words on to you. This is what he said:"

Whoever wrote Deuteronomy was an honest man. He could have left that verse out and your claim would be unassailable. Instead he put it in and showed the world that it was Moses who spoke to the nation of Israel. That means you and your kind are living in a fairytale.

DontNeedChrist: Not going over this BS again.

ghostgeek: Well, if you change your mind, you know where to head to.

DontNeedChrist: Find a new drum to beat. You were proven wrong already. Move on.

ghostgeek: I thought you were done with this topic DNC? Anyway, be assured, I haven't changed my views on the subject.

ghostgeek: By the way, what do you think about the burning bush? Was it an example of St. Elmo's fire?

DontNeedChrist: It was a talking mini-me volcano.

ghostgeek: I used to think along those lines, without the talking of course, but now I've rather changed my view on the subject.

DontNeedChrist: Yes. You're so open-minded.

ghostgeek: Why thank you DNC. Very nice of you to say so.

ghostgeek: I take it there's nothing good on the telly at the moment?

DontNeedChrist: You shouldn't ASSume.

ghostgeek: Just asking DNC.

ghostgeek: No need to get shirty.

DontNeedChrist: Just answering.

ghostgeek: Yes, I try to be open minded, something I find people of faith seem incapable of doing. I knew a Muslim once, a very cleaver chap, who reckoned that a mountain travelled to see old Muhammad. This bloke was studying for a Ph.D. in computing but he was unshakable in his belief. I guess you're similar DNC, once you get something in your noddle, however ridiculous it might seem to others, it stays there.

ghostgeek: Perhaps you believe in flying mountains as well?

DontNeedChrist: Pot calling the kettle black from someone obsessed with talking volcanoes.

ghostgeek: Well, do you believe in flying mountains?

DontNeedChrist: When pigs fly.

ghostgeek: I'll assume that to be a "no" then. That in turn makes me wonder why you are so prepared to believe in all the "wonders" recounted in the Bible, the old part, that is? If the Muzzies can get it wrong, why can't the Jews?
