An argument for the authenticity of the Bible

Fiction is always consistent in and of itself. The real world, by comparison, is a very chaotic place. This means that eyewitnesses from different perspectives, will see different things, will even see the same event differently.

Consistent evidence, in comparison, is a sign of fiction- if there is no data that does not fit the theory, chances are very good that the data was very carefully chosen to support the theory.

Inconsistencies indicate that someone is not telling the truth. Maybe no one is telling the truth.

Secularism is not in itself a dictatorship. Catholicism is a dictatorship since the popes appoint the cardinals who in turn elect the popes who then wield unrestricted authority over all of Catholicism.

If you take that opinion, then human beings are utterly incapable of telling the truth. Or it may be that the truth is just a bit more complex than we are willing to admit. Two blind men describing an elephant as a hose and a rope are not lying, they're at opposite ends of the same animal.

If Secularism is not a dictatorship, then why does it dictate how everybody can act?

Secularism rejects the idea that any one religion can dictate how everyone should act. It is the opposite of what you think it is.

And in so doing, creates a new religion that believes that religion should not be involved in morality- and is quite firm about that belief. Just let a religious person speak up, and the secularists will be calling for fines, jail, and eventually, the death penalty.

It's obvious that religion should not be involved in defining public morality. Why should gays be told that they are immoral just because the Catholic Church says that they are if they act on their natural inclinations? This is the same institution that is paying billions of dollars in settlements to victims of clerical abuse that was allowed and covered up by, among others, Cardinal Ratzinger, who insisted that he receive a report on every pedophile priest and then did absolutely nothing even when he became Pope Benedict XVI. Why should he or his successors be able to set moral guidelines for gays who want to marry or anyone else?

Father claims 15 year old girl is capable of consent in Lesbian Rape Case

Father claims 15 year old girl from another family is capable of consent : I'm beginning to really like the change in Florida's government.  First they stop handing out welfare checks to junkies.  Now they are treating Lesbians under the same rules as Heterosexuals, gasp, what a concept!  Don't sign this petition unless you are FOR statutory rape of younger girls by predatory lesbians. How many 18 year old boys have been prosecuted for having sex with 16 year old women under "minors can't give consent"?    Special treatment for lesbians?  Please, no.

Call them what you like, Broken Families are still a TRAGEDY!

Yes, liberals value family , but not enough to recognize that a broken family is a tragedy. Divorce is actually worse than death as far as the grieving process goes- especially when there are children, custody battles, parental support, and alimony involved. And homosexuals raising children? That is tragic, not something to be celebrated. Maybe if we'd *recognize* that a broken family is a tragedy we would be more willing to say, pay taxes for WIC so that the single mother working a minimum wage job actually has the ability to choose life. Maybe we'd have more men willing to stick around and help raise the children they cause because the condom broke while they were stupidly using sex only for recreation. Maybe, just maybe, we'd be raising men instead of a generation of cowardly wimps who choose homosexuality and suicide over real life. Suffering and tragedy is valuable- but only if we recognize that it exists.
