Why do you believe?

    I sent among you a plague after the manner of Egypt; your young men I killed with a sword, along with your captive horses; I made the stench of your camps come up into your nostrils; yet you have not returned to Me, says the LORD.

    I overthrew some of you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a firebrand plucked from the burning; yet you have not returned to Me, says the LORD.(Amos4:10-11)

    Thanks myelaine, these quotes show exactly what kind of a monster the biblical god is, and why I for one would refuse to worship him even if I believed in his existence or threats of eternal torture.

    Welcome to the board, SonnyBoy! I like your style!

    I was brainwashed...conditioned from birth...to hold a belief system that has no logical basis.

    I was likewise brainwashed and conditioned from birth to accept the dub lifestyle and belief system. Thankfully, my spirituality won out over the nutso religion. The religious beliefs did not suvive, I purged them. My spirituality remains -- stronger than ever! I am thankful.

    Love and light,
