Biblical LSD - poppy and mushroom. They were available. The effect on an underweight frail, sickly person would be magnified.

To all the bible discrediters that have commented:

Do you believe there was a world wide flood?

Do you believe God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah?

Do you believe the story f the exodus from Egypt?

Do you believe Moses actually talked to God?

Do you believe God parted the red sea?

Do you believe the story of David and Goliath?

Do you believe Jesus did things like raise Lazarus from the dead, put a ear back on that was sliced off, heal the blind?

Do you believe Jesus actually rose from the grave after he had been killed?

Do you believe Jesus ascended to Heaven 40 days after he rose from the grave?

Do you believe Jesus is coming back again for his true followers?

They can't because ............. it is written in the Bible and they don't want to accept the Bible is true and god's word to man. Then of course they miss what we are to learn from those accounts and how we benefit from doing so.

I believe Jesus existed. I believe he was extraordinary and gifted. I believe we see only glimpses of the man in the bible.

All the bible "discreditors" in this thread, please say 'aye'.

Maybe if you werent accusing people who don't view the bible in the same way you do of claiming it is worthless, you would get more responses.

Rainbows also happen when I turn on my lawn sprinkler. We know the phenomenon is caused by the refraction of light by water droplets. If you take a literal interpretation of Genesis, I guess you believe that rainbows did not occur before the time of Noah. Which would mean that the physical laws of nature regarding the properties of light were changed after the flood. Is that correct?
