The bible does have nice things in it, you just need to know how to adapt things that were from the culture of 2000 years ago and are different now.
@Satellite, if the thread is going out of the good direction you should push it back on track, moving it somewhere would be stupid as this still has nice potential for discussion.
Well there are those that do pick and choose in the literal sense (E.G. Liviticus) and they're called republicans (BA-DUM-CHING). No but seriously there are people who say things like the only way to know something is write is if it's an absolute morel from god (I'm not saying that's every christian FYI).
