I was taught and fully believed that it was the literal and inerrant word of God, guided by his hand and infallible… so yes, finding errors in it was a disturbing. The authors or it’s age shouldn’t matter if they’re being guided by an all knowing and all powerful being. It wasn’t until much later that I found out how much of it is suspected forgery. Probably could have saved a couple years of agony there

Not op, but for me it was the fact that the supposedly ineffable word of God turned out to be pretty effible

It wasn’t the first step towards losing faith, or even the last, but it was pretty troubling to a young me

What? So first of, it really doesn’t. You don’t understand evolution if you think that’s what it is, but that’s beside the point.

You believe that a supernatural sky being made a mud man and a rib woman, who were tricked by a talking snake into eating magic no no fruit. Then 4 thousand years later, a zombie came and made everyone drink it’s blood and eat it’s body in order to get into the good magic sky place.

It’s real easy to dumb down peoples beliefs and make them sound stupid, especially if you misrepresent them.

The question was why do you believe in YOUR beliefs. It was not an invitation to be a superior asshole.

Only a sith frolics in absolutes
