I dont refute anything that says in the book. But its very poetic. And when I dont understand something, I will ask people to explain, but will only accept it, i it makes sense to me. I wont accept anything that doesnt make sense in my mind. And me believing in god, does not mean I dont need the help of the book. ANd it gives me structure, and guidance.
Its like saying, why o you listen to your parents, and follow what they say? Why not just do whatever pleases you? Or why do you believe teachers, and their teachings? ITs a silly attitude to have imo. BUt to each their own.

Did you even read my post? I was not talking about the Koran. Whats the title of this thread, again? I was merely saying that there are so many different interpretations of The Bible that how do people know there interpretation is right? Why bother at all?
To be honest I cant really follow much of what you are saying so I will leave it at that. You seem to be talking about Islam, which I don't know anything about admittedly

.
I do, however, know a lot about the Bible. LeatherTrumpet's accusation that I don't comes from his specific interpretation of the Bible. Again showing how fallacious it is. He says it is all about context. That is a blanket argument that could be applied to absolutely anything in the Bible.
I suppose when Jesus talks about Adam & Eve he did not really believe in creationism, he was just speaking in the context of a parable? After all, like I have already said, and which no Christian on this forum has been able to respond to thus far : The PROOF that the world is more than 4,000 years old and Jesus himself, YOUR messiah, being a creationist seem utterly incompatible with one another. He spoke of Adam & Eve. He spoke of original sin. He spoke of Noah, the ark and the flood that covered the entire planet.

Repped. Who knows. His church might have banned the use of the word 'awesome'.
