How Many Bibles Have You Owned?

Fine.

A question is still words. You technically "asked a question" which made an inference as to what I had said. Thus you put words in my mouth.

Man up and own up to what you said.

"lawyer".

Well, it is the fact that I am a lawyer that tells me the difference between a question and a statement. My question invited you to clarify your position. When I asked you if you had assumed something, all you needed to say was "no" if it were untrue.

Did you start this thread with the assumption that the non-religious hadn't read scripture, or the opposite - or something in between?

Neither is an assumption.

That's the point.

Uh, no. Not at all. In fact, in most cases, my guess would be that most Christians have NEVER read the Bible.

I suspect this is true in Judaism and Islam as well, which is why so many followers of religion are so open to different interpretations.

Yeah, I'm not sure what mine was though.

Then what is your point?

I said I'm not sure what mine was, and I said it self depricatingly, and I added a funny smiley.

I already answered above. I started this thread with no assumptions.

A reminder to all that this thread is in the Green Room.

If you want it moved to the Red Room, @Dayton3 , say the word.

OK.

You have to admit, though, that despite being phrased as a question, it was leveling an accusation. I don't need to be a lawyer or an educator to see that much.

I thought Robert Crumb only did Genesis. Did he also do the other books in the OT?

That is so cool! I like this Jeffferson dude. They shoulda made him president!

Asking questions of religion and making fun of the things that don't make sense =/= anti Christian. I'd say Diacanu has been the most vitrolic again Christians of anyone besides Flashlight 1.0, but even he's mellowed out a bit.

El Chup never passes up an opportunity to mock and deride Christians.

FTFY.

The Green Room, fellas. Let's not start up any kind of flaming here, okay?

Note that El Chup the "lawyer" started it.

Apparently being a "lawyer" means you don't have to obey the rules.

I don't care who started it. End it, or I will.
