[@wakeupthisisntreal8168]

From the perspective of an Atheist, I just want to say that it actually just shows how fallible the Bible truly is. If the Bible were the product of some infinitely perfect divine mind, there would be no confusion regarding it message. The fact that the Bible can be interpreted to mean pretty much anything is exactly why there are so many denominations that are supposedly all based on scripture. All of you religious folks think you have the inside scoop on truth when in reality you all can't agree on SO much. As for homosexuality, the Bible never records God saying anything about it, so move on.

[@TrustinJC]

@@wakeupthisisntreal8168 God speaks through the prophets. God speaks through righteous men and women. As for the confusion, Peter tells us that there are falsehoods in the scriptures and that those falsehoods serve a purpose. But you try to imagine how you would do things rather than how a far superior being would do things. God, through the prophets, therefore, condemns homosexuality, calling it an abomination. So move on down that wide path that leads to destruction.

[@wakeupthisisntreal8168]

​@@TrustinJC "God speaks through righteous men and women." The inherent problem is that anyone can claim that God is speaking through them. Since people who claim to be divinely inspired can never come to complete agreement, it's pretty obvious that there is no such thing as divine inspiration. People simply need to learn how to recognize their own thoughts. If you want to claim that someone is truly divinely inspired, you would need to define an objective standard for determining which interpretations of scripture, and which ideas by men who claim to be divinely inspired, are correct. And you would have to do this *without* relying on what men who have claimed to be divinely inspired said. Otherwise that would be circular reasoning. "God, through the prophets, therefore, condemns homosexuality" You see, whether you realize it or not, you're actually basing this judgement on an interpretation of the Bible. The Bible can also be interpreted as not being against homosexuality (look up the debate on the word arsenokoitai and how most versions of the Bible don't actually mention homosexuality). There's a reason why there's so many versions of the Bible, scholars can simply not agree on the meaning of every word during the translation process. That is the simple fact. Objectively speaking, there's no way to determine who is correct, it really depends on which interpretations align with your personal value system, whether you consciencly realize that or not. You need to stop gaslighting society by saying you have the inside scoop when it comes to absolute truth when the source you are claiming is absolute cannot even lead everyone to the same conclusion. That is why there are so many denominations, so many interpretations, so many rituals. No one can truly and honestly define an objective standard for deciphering truth without making some assumptions. If there are assumptions behind what you are claiming to be true, then that simply means your idea of truth is subjective. It's absurd to me, as an theist, how you can not see past your own subjective concepts of reality masked behind religion.

[@wakeupthisisntreal8168]

@@TrustinJC Let me ask you a simple question: what objective standard are you using to determine what is absolute truth?

[@TrustinJC]

@@wakeupthisisntreal8168 Scripture defines "the standard". And that is not circular reasoning. Without the gold standard of scripture there would be no method to determine a true prophet from the false ones. The fact that it is so difficult to recognize true prophets from false ones is evidence of scripture being true. Christ warns Peter in the writing known as the Coptic Apocalypse of Peter that a multitude of false teachers would lead multitudes of people astray. He also warned that a man would deceive people with a manifold dogma. Dogma is what we today call doctrine and theology. Well, that is exactly what you have described. You cannot see the truth because you have a preconceived notion of how God should and would do things. You have no understanding of what scripture actually teaches. The fact that you claim there is no way to determine who and what is correct is evidence of this. Why is it so hard to understand that just as any natural human attribute and set of skills is not the same or equal from person to person, neither are spiritual attributes and skills the same or equal. And just as any natural abilities can be honed and finely tunes, so too can spiritual attributes. Just as only a very small percentage of humans will ever reach the skill and abilities needed to compete in the olympics, so too is it with matters pertaining to the spiritual. If you do not put in the work, you will never be able to compete. And you have chosen to not put in the work. That is on you. So just because you lack understanding and spiritual discernment due to laziness and ignorance does not mean those that have put in the work are in the same boat as you.

I love how she has gotten to this place without throwing away her faith however, I wasn't able to do the same... I had to leave my faith behind but because of that, I finally was able to believe that god really does love me 🥰 My process was awful though... When I realized the voi1ence Leviticus commands towards me (were I to live back in those times), I felt such dsepair and knew that I wouldn't be long for this world if I kept believing that. To me, that verse calls for a hloca^st (censoring that word for KZbin)... mass excti^ns that weren't just talked about but actually carried out. BTW, I do respect people with faith so I'm not meaning to be insulting... When I bring up that verse in Leviticus, my experience with religious folks is that they always dismiss it... saying that it really doesn't matter anymore because "We're under the new covenant now". The only issue with that is that no amount of time can excuse the hloc^ust of the old testament anymore than it erases the effects of the one that happened 80 years ago. And to so easily dismiss it feels insulting to the memory of all those who were lost... More over, d eath is still on the table according to Romans... it's a spiritual d eath though (as in h ell which I would say is much worse than the capital punishment of Leviticus). My point is that the bible says some very awful things about us and it would be SO nice if religious folks would stop saying that we aren't allowed to be hurt or offended by them... PS...

He definitely suggests against it, and also tells that he would rather a man be a pastor over a woman, but honestly, that seems like his personal preference. Just because it's in the Bible doesn't necessarily mean you are to follow it. Some things are just opinions from writers, or, examples of what not to do. For instance, the infanticide decreed by King Herod. Well, infanticide is in the Bible, and Herod did it, so why can't I kill babies? (Not that I would, but some Christians think abortion is ok). Or Paul; he killed numerous Christians before his conversion. Just because Paul is depicted as a murderer, can't I be a murderer too? You see, just because Paul said he doesn't want women to be pastors, doesn't mean God doesn't condone it. Just because Herod condoned the slaughter of hundreds of babies, doesn't mean God condoned it at all!! I hear you, and I see your point - I just believe it's wrong.

Roman Creed Paul didn't just suggest against it, he was clear. I'd get into your false equivalencies with Herod and Paul but I don't see the point since you don't care about my "opinion." I'm trying to work on not being quarrelsome with others, so there's no need to get into a quarrel over the word. But, this woman is misrepresenting scripture which is dangerous because it leads people astray and into believing false doctrines.

John the Baptist and John the disciple are two different people entirely….

Imagine not reading the Bible and then going up and saying you understand
