I guess you can call it "faith." I can think of many more suitable words.

What are you doing to stop overdoses from prescription medication? Sounds like you want to legalize drugs, and ban prescription medication. I guess that's in line with your views on other issues.

Sounds like a plan, at least death by drugs will plummet. Go on i dare you to say, have you any idea how much medical marijuana is helping folk like Warden?.

True about the Jesus character but not so true about his (purported) Dad.

There were a lot of despotic war gods before Jehovah was invented. It's just a more sadistic copycat of Zeus, Jupiter, Odin et al.

How did the likes of Noah, Eli, Abraham. Isaac and Jacob, Elijah and Elisha know God?. Do you have proof of Solomon when asking God to give him understanding and wisdom, he was expecting it to come by God teaching him the bible?.

Fundies say you can't know Jesus without the bible....... The truth is, if that is what you believe you don't know Jesus, you know the bible.

Look, the bible is not the problem, it is what you fundies have made it that is the problem, a false idol.

So now you're in the same category of a walk of the likes of Noah, Eli, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Elijah and Elisha, are you? Peace

Yes absolutely. You should not put these guys on a pedestal. You were never instructed in the scriptures to do so. Those guys would be amazed by Solomon's teachings never mind Jesus'. With your bible ear plugs in this sounds like blasphemy to you.
