And why does it offend you so much?

John 16:8-11 And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged.

Don't sear your conscience when it comes to sin, it's Gods tool to brings sinners to Christ and to keep saints humble and dependant on Him. The only one who will wanna use it to destroy us is satan, but God uses it to put His grace and love on display for such wretches as we are.
Sin is not what you and the rest of the fundies keep banging on about. It's unbelief(which fundamentalists live in), simple as that. The message of Jesus Christ was never a one time believe in me and you've booked your ticket to heaven and you are now seen by him white as snow. The message is you are white as snow and your unbelief is what causes you to stray from your true being.

I do not give a second thought to sin anymore than I would to the arrows that miss the bullseye that I'm aiming at, my eye would remain steadfastly on hitting the bullseye and my ears would remain deaf to the judgement of fundamentalists saying he's missed again. The day I hit the bullseye is the day I see myself as he is.

Why do evangelical cultists seek to IDOLIZE the bible, even above the status of Christ?

YOU neither have NEITHER lot, part or RIGHT in this matter. STEP back & STAND DOWN and let JESUS do the witnessing. YOUR words are perversion of the TRUTH to those who trust and and the words cause Jesus to CRY..

The truth has you squirming. Jesus didn't deny the Scriptures like you. He loved His Father and His Word, even to the death.

[31] Then he [Jesus] took unto him the twelve [disciples], and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.
[32] For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:
[33] And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.

The Bible is His Word, and it's got you stirred up to the point where you have set out to tear it down. But, you're wasting your time. The Word of the Lord endures forever -- just as it is written.

Just like the resurrection story. And the feeding of the 5000. And the turning of water into wine...

My heart is set on exposing those who elevate written words to equality with God, making them an idol to which they sacrifice intelligence and compassion.

Fortunately, some self-righteous, hate-filled Bible-worshiping schmoe on an Internet message board doesn't get to decide the condition of my heart even though he has apparently appointed himself to that position.

Then why do you think the Law has been abolished?...

Do you remember Carrie?...Her crazy mother beating because she had a period and calling her a sinner, whe probably didn't break any of G-d's Laws, but in her crazy fundamentalist mind, she did, just because she had a period...I think Graham should change his handle to "Mrs. White"...

"After the first time, before we were married, Ralph promised never again. He promised, and I believed him. But sin never dies. Sin never dies. At first, it was all right. We lived sinlessly. We slept in the same bed, but we never did it. And then, that night, I saw him looking down at me that way. We got down on our knees to pray for strength. I smelled the whiskey on his breath. Then he took me. He took me, with the stink of filthy roadhouse whiskey on his breath, and I liked it. I liked it!"
