Jesus slept with sinners and prostitutes and even forgave a thief while he was on the cross. The readings I got from the dude while being a Christian was that he didn't give a crap if you a Jew or not. As long as you were a good person and helped others.

Your words come across as a lot of fluff to me. Lots of adjectives with no backing reasoning or logical support. No description of exactly what you are talking about. Oh and no evidence of your point. The Bible is not historically accurate. Some of it is, but since a lot isn't, it loses its credibility as a historical accounting of events in the past. If I have to spend time picking out and ignoring the parts that aren't real then it calls into question the parts that may be true. And it's not like the Bible tells small lies or anything. Entire stories are easily proved wrong by science and even simple logic. Stories like Noah's Ark or Jonah and the Whale.
Whatever the one true history of humankind is, the Bible isn't clued in on it.

Allegories my friend....lol...and you couldnt be more in the dark....fluff huh....lol...clean out your ears then kiddo....I read the bible as a small kid cover to cover and I am not religious now nor was I then.... I read it for the same reason I have read the Quran and the Vedic Texts because it was interesting , I have read multiple versions of these doctrinal writings...and of others....before I was an adult....reason -logic -evidence -history -science -logic -stories...….your last post is really 7 words long...you are having a hard time reasoning why logic shows that the evidence that history and science present conflict and why logic tells you the stories are based on the context of these evidences . The rest of your post was only FLUFF....lol..you trying to be shy....lol.
Reasonable logic will tell you that much of the evidence presented in many doctrinal histories disguised as allegories is validated generically by ever evolving science so by proxy logic tells us also that the doctrinal allegory laced stories we read based upon this historical evidence will eventually in large be validated by science.

I'm not going to do a discussion with somebody that needs to ask that question, that doesn't understand the contradiction, if entropy is a fact. This objection to evolution is as common as dirt. So you're either trolling or don't understand things common as dirt, in either case not one to have a serious discussion with. Troll somebody else.

That's good for you. Interesting != true though.

Reasonable logic tells me that humans embellish stories and evidence outside of human opinions is necessary to substantiate any story. Especially stories dating back thousands of years.

You already have the tools and you have already stepped upon the path of truth...so why stop now....your feet haven't been burned by truth they have been soothed by it and prepared for further journey upon a path of truthful relief as opposed to a path of painfull untruths.
You aready know that contex within content is the key to control because of the ways you describe your current views of your religious indoctrinations....

hahaaha I see you don't know. Let me try to explain it very simply: living cells do not contradict entropy as they are not closed systems. This means entropy does not contradict evolution.

See. This argument that the Bible is allegorical is a goal post that is all over the place. There is no clear place where we can sit down and say, "well this isn't true and is clearly an allegory, but THIS is true." As a history book it is very untrustworthy and as a book for life advice it is pretty shoddy since you need to make caveats for the Old Testament rules to stone disobedient children and stuff. Then, because the bible contradicts itself throughout the chapters, you have the hate mongers who use it to justify hating gays or other races.
It may be a great book to read and digest the stories, but it really shouldn't be seen as anything more than a book of fiction.
Perfect example of ignorant trolling.
You're just throwing stuff out there, have no idea what your point is

Aligning the Bible with other historical religious texts is like saying that the X-Men and Superman are the same because they are both comic books about super heroes.
Personally, I see nothing wrong with studying the history of religion and how it developed in the ancient world, and to do that you need to read the texts to understand the beliefs. However, I don't see any truths within them that cannot be gleamed from more reliable sources.

Well this is why you don't understand that every 3657 years our Global Societies get absolutely wiped away...and that this is a cyclical event which is why history really does keep repeating itself...it is not an illusion...we are constantly re-discovering not inventing.All major religons are aware of this cycle and have worked with different Governments and private groups to ensure their survival and their longevity as entities....by keeping the Sheeple subdued while they are furtively building massive Underground shelters and by attempting to set up off-planet...
I spent part of yesterday afternoon picking up bits and pieces of petrified flesh...and bone...and I mean meat with fat and sinews and connective tissues all 100% clearly visible definable and color correct...and I know how and why ....lol...I have worked on Oil Rigs and TASTED FRESH OIL from thousands of feet below the surface it didn't taste bad and I know how and why ....believe what you must.

Every 3657 years? That is AWFULLY precise. How does that align with the archeological record? Does the archeological record show that exactly 3657 years ago something wiped out society? What about the geological record? What does that say? Seems like something world altering like that would leave a mark for us to find by digging in the ground.
