Why, certainly, if you start a new thread for that topic.

1)I am female.
2)Actually, if you took the trouble to read my post, you would see that I did no such thing. I did, however, support the critical review of the "Left Behind" series as "crap."

I agree.

I can't see how they read the OT and still worship the *#&@^

Thanks for the voice of support, scigirl.

I always found it pretty weird that god ditches his nasty habit of smiting people in the NT and decides to heal and make food for people instead (assuming Jesus = God). Maybe he figured out that a carrot vs. a stick approach made him look a little more worshipable. No one likes a bully, except maybe for biblical literalists.

Another OT fable that is sickening is the story of Lot. How is volunteering your "virgin" daughters to be gang-raped righteous? I refuse to worship a god that would reward such behavior.

It's okay about Lot. They get even with him by getting him drunk and raping him and bearing his children.
