It would appear that we no longer need to rely on eugenics to reduce the lower class numbers, Covid-19 is doing it for us.
Isn't about time that you and your ilk grasped the fact that Man has made God in his image and not the other way around and that God is merely a product of Man's imagination.

This essay provides a unique Illuminated Understanding of the purpose "creation myths". http://www.beezone.com/da_publications/creamyth.html

By the way there are quite literally hundreds if not thousands of creation myths from every known culture.

This reference describes how we Westerners who are now all trapped in the all encompassing left-brained spirit-killing mindset/paradigm are incapable of understanding that all of the old "myths" were based on an essentially shamanism perception that the world is a psycho-physical Process.

Peter, you're asking fundamental fanatics and politicians interpreting text, making laws etc! To think logically, rationally!

I fancy you'd have a better chance of digging a huge hole in the dry beach and well over the high tide mark, then taking a bucket and going back and forth, pouring water into the hole! And thereby, emptying the entire ocean into it!

While some text may have a grain of truth!? It's clear that much of it is invention, given much of it reflects the (the sky will fall) social mores (pure superstition) and norms of the culture and period from which it sprung!

Truth has to be founded on irrefutable fact! Not fantasy and pure fiction, designed to exert and enrich control and swell Papal coffers!

I mean, Popes with armies and navies, the Spanish inquisition, the burning of Saint Joan at the stake, ditto the alleged witches of Salem and far, far worse! And little more then the point of the tip of a very large, absolutely outrageous allegorical iceberg!

Alan et al. Speaking of popes, did anyone notice that in greeting Cardinal Pell, Pope Francis held out his hand, not for Pell to kiss his ring, but for Pell to just shake his hand, which he did rather awkwardly.

I enjoy Peter Sellicks essays. But his eloquent attempts at explaining it away fail.
Matthew 7:13-14. Enter at the straight gate, because most simply wont get it!

I really enjoyed that book and was glad to visit Darwin, makes one think.

A local scrap monger arrived at Pearly Gates and St. Peter says 'wait a minute until I check with The Boss', when he returned the gates were gone.
