The Earth is only 6000 years old. No comment.
Evolution is not true.
(I don't think the bible even acknowledges evolution, since it is a concept that isn't around until several hundreds of years later)
Man was created before animals.
(Pretty sure the bible also says that God created "the plants and the animals and the skies and the seas and all the creatures that dwell within" in like the first week, before creating man.)
In the Garden of Eden plants survived without the sun.
(Isn't one of the first parts of Genesis "And then there was light" i.e, the sun?)
Yeah dude I couldn't follow that book at all like continuity errors all over the place i didnt know wtf was goin on like one time this dude jesus was capped by some whack ass niga pontius pilate then like later on dis jesus dude come flyin out of rocks and some shit and like flies off into the sky to hang out wit some old ass niga, im like wtf?!
The post about it being basically a moral guidebook is completely accurate. Pointing out "but obviously it was written before modern science and has no value!" is just complicating it, and arguments over specific facts like "Well obviously plants cant survive without the sun! " are just bullshit dick-measuring arguments because people can't stand to be wrong, among other things (such as 16-year-olds thinking that they're really rocking the boat and are really breaking into some new realm of higher intelligence or something).
Here is a question I pose to you that I don't really expect answered, but I ask for the sake of knowing: What do you get from "disproving" the bible, or religion?
Will the problems of the world disappear; will people stop fighting wars, will the rich help the poor, suddenly? Will the "evil. gay-burning Christians who hate free knowledge and burn books" suddenly realize that their views on gays or their ideas on what they believe suddenly be altered, and they'll wake up and join you in your new utopia? (I know you aren't arguing for those causes but you give no other explanation as to why you hate religious organizations, other than "Well, someone told me they were bad!")
Will humans suddenly realize the solution to all the problems they have been stuck on until now, and suddenly we will break into a new era of super-advanced intelligence, or will things continue on as they are, and as they have been?
