The Bible is Wrong About Noah’s Ark and The Flood – The church of Truth
The Truth Is… We evolved, no one lived to be 600 years old. Case closed. ============================================================== But for the sake of poetic license, we’ll look at the story as though Noah could have been alive. In That Case, Consider This Within minutes of departing the Ark, every herbivore would be eaten by a carnivore. Soon […]

The Sin of Silence – William Edelen
There is a sin among a large segment of the Christian clergy that I find despicable. It is the sin of omission, the sin of silence. It is the sin of promoting falsehoods in order to hold your job. It is the sin of not sharing with a congregation what you know to be true […]
More Contradictions in the Torah – Maregaal
First and foremost a person should be intellectually honest with themselves when looking at the Torah and the Tanach. I say this for several reasons.

The Bible is long. Really long and really detailed, so much so that many of its most devoted proponents have never actually read the entire thing cover to cover. So, it should come as no surprise that among all the extensive genealogies, miraculous doings, and inspirational metaphors, there’s some absolutely bonkers stuff in there.Here are […]
The Bible Does Not Exist – John Shook
Denying that Jesus really existed is too easy. Not only wasn’t Jesus divine, he wasn’t even real. You have to be quite skeptical that one single human being was behind all those stories about this “Jesus” in the Bible. Going further, I’ve become skeptical about the Bible itself. Who will join me in denying that […]
