I will skewer the Bible. Starting with Abraham. He was a murdering, genocidal cult leader using God to justify the killing of whole cities and his own child.
Psycho! Own your book or stfu.

The Bible Is God's Word
http://www.gty.org/resources/sermons/90-323/?term=90-323
The only way we can know God and His will is to have it given to us in a way that is unmistakable. And God has chosen to do that in a book, the Bible.
...yup!

And if BluBlocr is a Christer against x-Catholics then isn't that just another example of religious hate?
I don't hate anyone. No matter what label you put on them.
I'm only recognizing and pointing at a pattern.
Can I say that your holding a lot of hate toward religions and maybe even Jesus?
Religions I can understand. But what's wrong with Jesus?

Skully,
President Obama of the United States. Not Nigeria. He ( we) has sent military, intelligence and law enforcement. The President and Secretary of State have given support. Do you think that it's some Rambo operation that Obama needs to do alone? Where do you get your propaganda? ( a right wing religious channel perhaps?)

Your so-called 'truth'? From your book? Please. Fancy Creation Mythology isn't my thing.

You guys are just nuts.
Let me make some hypotheses
1. You are a victim of Childhood Indoctrination.
2. You believe that your religion is the "one true religion".
3. Facts, History and Science cannot influence your beliefs.
4. You accept religious authoritarianism.
5. The term 'Creation Mythology' pushes your button.
6. You have special insight into Abrahams murderous acts.
How am I doing? I've got more.
7. You know the Q'uran is not the word of God.
8. You think that Zeus was a fantasy.
9. You aren't exactly comfortable with a Palestinian Jew as the One and Only son of God.
10. You aren't a pacifist.
If I didn't get 100% then I bet I got a 90%
I can go on all day.
And you should all be Mormon because Jesus visited America recently and gave them the reins.

Lol, thanks Anita. Maybe some hippy man love would fix me. ( I'd wash your feet, tho)
I think that I haven't gotten over the Dark Ages and Witch Burning and the Christian Wars. Poor saps.

Jim,
You may have surpassed the all time record for the number of post, in the the time it has been on the Taco. Good job!
Took a few young guns to my old haunt for many years. They got pretty worked on a few 5.10/5.11 old school classics. It was fun, showing them around. ( I feel pretty worked as well). It was 80F and very few black flies.

What do you do instead of attending to the African girl outrage? you're a somewhat behind on the news.
16 April The day after the kidnapping Nigeria said the girls had been released
17 April locals including some parents went into the jungle looking for their girls.
18 April the UK offers help. The US offers help about the same time.
A senior State Department official also said Friday that the U.S. offered help "back in April, more or less right away."
"We didn't go public about it because the consensus was that doing so would make the Nigerians less likely to accept our help,"
6 May Michelle starts #BRINGBACKOURGIRLS
Until mid last week Nigeria continued to refuse US and UK offers to help.
9 May US and UK counter terrorism people are on the ground.
The Nigerian Army very likely didn't want our help as they are well known to have been committing atrocities of their own.
your outrage is better directed towards Boko Haram and Nigerian PM Goodluck Johnathan (Christian)

Thanks John, I've often suspected the same. I may need an intervention or exorcism or something ( in a curvy brunette) to heal my sickness.

When Collins kisses his boyfriend on the field of play you can compare him to Tebow crossing himself or whatever religious demonstration he does. Otherwise you are irrelevant...again.

Cute cartoon but....
1. I can't remember any genocides by the gays. ( Sparta notwithstanding)
2. No Gay Bible calling religion a sin.
3. No gay crusades.
4. No gay Dark Ages
5. No Gay inquisition.
6. Hard to kill in the name of unicorns but oh so easy to kill in the name of God.
7. No Gay cult.
8. No never ending gay wars.
9. Tebow is a dumb wanker so he will be a preacher.
Blu I answered your false assumption that I was an x catholic.
Your turn; Were you indoctrinated to the Bible as a child? ( Your pattern recognition is clearly flawed. How's mine?)

John M writes:
no.. not as a group.. that is just your exposure to what the media puts out there. like most things, the media reports the fringe. not the mainstream. Even mainstream leadership within the Christian community has a wide variation in what it accepts as truth.
Last sentence first. If Christians can't agree on truth among themselves what gives them the right to indoctrinate children and push political agendas?
And this is from an Evangelical Christer website. Notice how the Christians support war exactly as Fox defines it. It's why we call you all sheeple. What happened to turning the other cheek?
Quote:
Most evangelical leaders still support the war in Iraq and want the United States to “stay until the job is done,” according to a survey released Monday.
Even those who say the invasion of Iraq was a mistake based on faulty intelligence believe that it would be wrong to now leave, according to the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE)’s February 2008 Evangelical Leaders Survey.
“We should not have gone in,” said one respondent, who was only identified as a denominational CEO by the NAE. “But we are going to need to stay in long enough to prevent chaos and to stabilize the country.”
Other evangelical leaders insisted the war is just, President Bush was right in his decisions, and the United States should stay the course.
“Iraq represents that existential threat we have from global Islamic Jihadists,” responded another unidentified leader. “We must defeat it in Iraq, Afghanistan and then act preemptively to destroy it wherever it emerges.”
Still others said they have no opinion about the start of the war, but believe that the United States cannot now just leave.
“Most evangelicals in America subscribe to the theological position called ‘Just War Theory,’ that it is morally justified to go to war under certain conditions,” explained Leith Anderson, president of the National Association of Evangelicals, in a statement.

Iraq represents that existential threat we have from global Islamic Jihadists As proclaimed by Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and Rice.
Therefore it must be true
