BuzzKill:
You must get yourself a new Bible - absolutly!
I am sorry you lost your family Bible; but you must get a new one. I'd be happy to send you one if you would allow me to. You can write me at BuzzKill@alltel.net
Sounds like you've come through some hard times.
I'll remember you in Prayer.
Tony Stark:
Thank you friend. I hope you have yourself a very good holiday.
Our Bible reveals to us the character of our god with minute and remorseless exactness... It is perhaps the most damnatory biography that exists in print anywhere. It makes Nero an angel of light and leading by contrast.
--Samuel Clemens "Mark Twain", American author and humorist

Sysyadmin, did you know Mark Twain was as delusional and schizophrenic as you are?
Tony Stark:
Oh them? They don't have any idea of what reality is. Pity their philosophied disgrace. The only thing they see in the Bible is their own Personal loss of God in their lives. Let 'em bitch. They're freemason dogs. Totally without.
If triangles had a God, He'd have three sides.

So I guess John Adams, Albert Einstein etc were all delusional and schizophrenic as well, huh?
The divinity of Jesus is made a convenient cover for absurdity.
-John Adams, U.S. President
But how has it happened that millions of fables, tales, legends, have been blended with both Jewish and Christian revelation that have made them the most bloody religion that ever existed.
-John Adams, U.S. President
Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived.
-Isaac Asimov, Russian-born American author
Faith is a cop-out. It is intellectual bankruptcy. If the only way you can accept an assertion is by faith, then you are conceding that it can't be taken on its own merits.
-Dan Barker, author and former evangelist
Religion is a byproduct of fear. For much of human history, it may have been a necessary evil, but why was it more evil than necessary? Isn't killing people in the name of God a pretty good definition of insanity?
Arthur C. Clarke, author
I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotism.
-Albert Einstein, German-born American physicist
