QUIT LIMITING GOD!

You guys! What are you doing! I read about your concept of god and how you attempt to persuade and convert using your god. As I said, in Kooka's latest post, the description of god which pretty well fits the most is found the the Book of Common Prayer, in the prayer for guidance (I think), where god...

We've gone from hunter-gatherer to agrarian. What's next? CIVILIZATION!!! HOORAY!!!! RIGHT? Think again. Let's look at the Tower of Babel. Let's also not assume that it was built by Nimrod, and not assume that Nimrod was the world's first despot. That ain't there. What we have about Nimrod is that... Sign in to see full entry.

THE FLOOD

We pass over a bunch of begats and Methuselah and "sons of God saw the daughters of men that they wer fair... " -- it's a statement -- people try to make too much of it.
