I have my opinions based on logic and reason and you have yours based on blind faith from a book written thousands of years ago chisled in stone, transulated hundreds of times. It was written when there was no such thing as science, thus beliefs in rain gods, sun gods, etc. They couldnt explain what was happening because they didn't have the knowledge.
This will be the end of our discussion because you chose to believe what has been preached to you and not listen to reason and I chose to look at science, facts, and logic.
No hard feelings Tucson and I know keeping the faith will keep you comfortable, and I'm happy with that. I have no intention of converting anyone.

This post provoked me to find a Bible description of a judge:
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns...And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of the Almighty God.
And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
Rev. 19
That's a pretty impressive court of law, wouldn't you say?
