    It is called lament go look it up the Bible is full of these.
    This is not a quote from God as you seem to imply .All you have is a person crying out to god in frustration.

    His city was just destroyed and people massacred. I don’t think he is going to talk about tea and scones. This quote has nothing to do with god alsothe psalmist does not say, "I am going to go out and smash his little ones against the rock!" This is the feeling of man.This is exactly why were are told never to try and interprate the Old testemant literally because of posts like this.

    Please use your brain and stop quote minning

    Can you tell this to all the other Christians, please? They seem to think that some bits, like the bit about gay sex, should be interperated literally.

    Shame God didn't think to put the bits that are supposed to be taken literally and the bits that aren't in different fonts or something, it would save a lot of confusion.

    Good point.

    The most shocking aspect of the Bible to me is that people actually believe the BS within it.

    Mitch Hedberg: "Rice is great if you're really hungry and want to eat two thousand of something."

    1:54:00 into the video approx.

    Hitchens response to the question "is the bible right to prohibit sex with animals?" was "I have good advice with regards to having having sex with animals" or something to that effect.

    The questioner took a passage of Hitchens writing that was with regard to the sexual oppression of women, and tries to gloss over that with a question about bestiality.

    Hitchens does go on to say that some human behaviour polices itself as it with have a destructive/negative impact on the society. Cannibalism will lead to disease that could eventually wipe out the people. I presume he was putting bestiality into that same category.

    Nowhere did he say bestiality is ok.

    If you can read this, you're too close!

    He failed to answer the question and did not say that canabilism was wrong either .Surely in a darwinian world it i ¡s the survival of the fittest and therefore of no moral concequence. Basicaly he did not say it is wrong because decisions of a sexual nature should be left up to the individual adults to determine. He would be contradicting this if he was to actually answer yes .

    You honestly think that after saying that cannibalism causes kuru, which would over time wipe out a population, that it's the right way to go?

    It's a bit ironic that you're complaining about posters attributing things not said to God, but then do the same with regards to Hitchens and bestiality.

    If you can read this, you're too close!

    sorry but he did not say that it was morally wrong.

    he didn't say it was morally right or wrong. You made a claim about something he didn't say, that's only point I was making.

    And I don't recall him saying that people's forearms didn't taste of chicken, but that's hardly a reason to claim that this was his point of view, or to start demanding evidence that it wasn't.

    This forum has had enough trouble with posters claiming "Hitchens didn't condemn X, therefore he was ok with X!", in denial of grammar, rhetorical practice and much else.

    Let's try avoid the sophistic sensationalism.

    There's no point to life? Are you kidding me? There's every point to life because it's all you get! It's not a test for the real life that happens after you die and it's not a test to see what cool animal you come back as next time. This is it. I repeat, this.is.it... This is all. Every moment of joy, every moment of happiness you are likely to feel are going to happen to you during "life" and they happen a hell of a lot more if you actively pursue them! Life, my confused friend, to an atheist, couldn't be more pointy if it were a porcupine.

    But seriously, some of the rhetoric in the posts on this forum is a little worrying. The jump from some to all that occurs on a regular basis here for example. You do know that it's quite easy to go quote fishing?

    I got as far as "If I were ever to have attacked atheism by arguing that on the rare occasions when atheists manage to successfully reproduce," and I couldn't get any further for the laughing.

    My point is that there is zero correlation between a) being a Christian and b) being nice. They come in all levels of nice, not nice and points in between. Being a Christian doesn't necessarily make you a good person, nor does being an atheist. You're the one who jumped from some to all and played the victim card.

    I always thought Conservapedia was an example of trolling on a truly gargantuan scale (34,000 articles) but sadly I'm wrong and there truly are people like that out there.

    Because he knows there are no absolute moral laws.
    There are rational arguments against bestiality and such things.
    But no act or form of behaviour is objectively 'wrong' or 'immoral'.
