davidcasemore that was the most ridiculous post I think
you have ever made. Based on science the flat earth was
based on the science of the day. Being based on the science
of the day means often means nothing. People 100 years
from now will laugh at some of the prevailing thoughts
by the scientists
Well, that's kind of my point. Science CHANGES when new information comes along. Scientists ARE NOT embarrassed when new evidence requires them to update/change or totally disregard a previous idea.
The bible, on the other hand, still has the same old discredited BS. Why doesn't the bible reflect the changes of modern information?
I'll tell you: Religious Dogma. Nothing in the bible ever changes. The only thing that changes is which passages the church leaders choose to enforce and which ones they conveniently ignore.
For example:
Homosexuality = Evil (except by Ted Haggard et al. and many catholic priests)
Touching flesh of pig = ignored
