Boro Nut

Just a quick reminder for the benefit of Christians, here's a short list of some things which the bible officialy thinks aren't evil:

Abortion.
Paedophilia.
Incest.
Many murders.
Sodomy.
Bestiality.
Blasphemy.
Drug taking.
Apostasy.
Necrophilia.
Masturbation.
Infanticide.
Genocide.
Darwins treatise on the origin of species.
Kicking a pencil into a penguins ear.

I'm pretty sure there's a passage in Leviticus somewhere about pencils and penguins.

Humility, poverty, honesty. All not evil.

While I don't agree, it's what the Bible likes.

Boro Nut

Okay I'll happily concede that one. I have quite a soft spot for pencils.

While I appreciate pointing out the hypocristy of Christians, Jews and Muslims ranting and raving about the 'sin' and 'evil' of things that the God of the bible clearly does not really care about, I certainly hope you are not implying that everything in that list is evil.

Boro Nut

No, I'm pointing out for the benefit of our Christian viewers that the bible specifically says that none of those listed items are in any way evil. So they shouldn't go around spreading malicious rumours that they are, which they often do.

Well, aren't there a lot of things atheists don't think is evil?

For that matter, a lot of atheists tell me there is no such thing as evil. but thats another story.

Well I don't think that is in the intended scope of the thread. I think the point is that christians love to shove "such and such is evil!!!" down our throats, when in fact these things are not considered by the bible to be evil.

Spot on. By and large none of them have anything to do with the love of money, so by definition they can't possibly be evil. Nor is Satan.

I think that sitting quietly on the street corner minding your own business isn't evil... wait, that probably counts as loitering.
