P.S. — Approval is given for anyone and everyone seeing this post to steal the list provided above. I am dropping everything else and going to compile this into a series of documents for anyone and everyone to download and use as desired.
Wow! Now there's a list! And, that's why the god of the Bible doesn't smell too good.
Hey, Arakish! For the "soul" purpose (See what I did there? *wink*) of stealing JoC's thunder, I'm gonna go ahead and refute ALL of that by saying you only cherty-picked the bad stuff, and you obviously read ALL of that out of context. Because it should be blatantly apparent by now that those of us who are heathen skeptics are not divinely blessed with the speciality skills of Biblical Reading Comprehension.
There ya go, JoC. That should save you a bit of typing. And no need to thank me. My reward is simply seeing that precious smile on your adorable face. *smooch*
@ Tin Man
No No No, you've got it all wrong.
1. you're not reading it correctly. And you cant because you don't believe exactly as I do, which is the correct way.
2. You think this is literal, no it is all a METAPHOR stupid, except, of course when it isn't.
3. When it isn't a metaphor (which it could be if I say so) then it going to be an allegory.
4. Remember god was writing for the people of the time, so all that murder, incest, genocide was perfectly acceptable. He was just trying to communicate on their level.
5. Why are you so stupid? God loves you, he is just working in some mysterious way to bring you to Allah.
Now on your knees you clanking abomination and I shall clearly calmly and rationally prove there is a god with the help of this book and a whopping great sword.
Well... Didn't take as long as I thought.
Here is the promised compilation: GodsNastiestTurd.zip

Thanks, Tinman. I will say, arakish that in all of what you said, you simply took the texts out of context. I haven't looked back on our old thread but the idea that you simply came back with a list longer than any other post I've seen tells me one thing. You're applying a tactic called shotgunning. Shoot a shotgun which sprays bullets in a multitude of different directions and see what sticks.
Now, I could go down the list and address them one at a time but alas, I have a life. So if you at least want to have an honest to goodness conversation about this topic, pick one and let's talk about that one. I mean if you lose on one point, you've got a bazillion others so it really doesn't change your stance now does it?
Actually, on another note, if you're truly open minded, I can recommend to you a book which goes more into detail on all these.
And then neglect to provide a link...
Besides, I have probably read that book and others like it.

My idea was to gift you the book. But I changed my mind on that. Buy it yourself.

E-book. These things some in e-books now. Okay then. So safe to say you'r view on religious is outdated by about 18 years?
We can assume so. What has changed, really?
@ JoC
Nope. It is the same as it was over 50 years ago. Nothing has changed in religion in over 3000 years.
Here is an interesting factoid for you.
If the Bible is so damned accurate, theh why is the oldest date ever tested on the Dead Sea Scrolls dates them back to 408 BCE.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dating_the_Dead_Sea_Scrolls
The Dead Sea Scrolls are the "oldest" copy of the Bible, specifically, Old Testament.
Yet, the Ancient Greek Bible I saw in Greece is dated back to circa 550 to 600 BCE. And there is another Ancient Greek Bible that I have heard dated back to circa 800 BCE.
This means that the Aramaic version of Bible is actually a translation from the Greek version and may have been mistranslated.
Hmm...
rmfr
That's asinine. If you haven't kept up, then you can't know that the first statement is true, and the second statement is so easy to disprove that it makes you sound delusional. Focus on being right rather than dominant.
Emphasis on the -oid. Also, this is like saying that modern radiocarbon dating tests are invalid because they were conducted recently rather than contemporarily. You have to add more structure to your argument to make it clear how you think it differs from the radiocarbon dating analogue.
I think it's time to see you add some citations, Mr. Right.

Long story short? When you cry context you are admitting that you can't actually defend what it says because you know it's wrong. So just have a video that has destroyed your 'context' nonsense for 8 years now.

How about torturing king David's new born baby to death?
Hey, Sheldon, I hope you don't mind, but in case you missed it, I took the liberty of addressing this issue in the "If God Was Real" thread. However, since it seems appropriate for this thread (and you brought it up), I decided to bring it over here.
Re: Sheldon - "In the bible that deity is said to have been so angered by king David's adulterous affair and murder of the husband of his amorous intentions, that he (deity) smites the illegitimate baby conceived by that affair, and that the baby as a result is gravely ill for 7 days before it eventually succumbs and dies."
Step aside, JoC! I'll handle this one for you. Since Sheldon keeps bringing this up, it seems apparent he has been having difficulty in understanding your explanations to it. Goodness knows you tried and have given it a grand effort. For whatever reason(s), though, poor Sheldon simply cannot grasp the lesson to be learned from that story. Therefore, if you don't mind, I would like to try to explain the importance of this particular story to him in a manner he might be able to understand. I know many theists love using the parent/child analogy when describing the relationship between god and humans. It naturally allows people to more easily relate to the lesson(s) being taught. Also, the stories from the bible are about ancient people and cultures that are vastly different from modern day society. Well, as may be expected, most people of today might find it difficult to relate to some of the stories. With that in mind, I would like to explain the King David story to Sheldon using the parent/child analogy with something of a "modern-day" upgrade....
Okay, Sheldon, please pay attention. Remember, this is for your own good....
Pretend you have a son. Naturally, you love your little boy and care about him more than anything else in life. And let's say for your son's fifth birthday you get him a cute and cuddly puppy, because he has been asking you for one for several weeks. Of course, he is absolutely thrilled with his gift, and over the course of two or three months the boy and the puppy develop a special bond. That puppy is your son's new best friend, and he loves that puppy more than anything.
So, late one afternoon your son sneaks into the kitchen to snag a cookie or two out of the cookie jar for him and his pup. You happen to walk into the kitchen at just the right moment and catch him "with his hand in the cookie jar." And because he is startled by your unexpected appearance, he removes his hand from the jar quickly, such that it causes the cookie jar to fall to the floor and break. And... you.... are...ANGRY! One, because he knows it is a very strict rule that he is not to have any cookies before supper. And, two, because that was a very expensive cookie jar. Well, obviously, your son definitely deserves to be punished for disobeying your rules and for damaging something expensive through his carelessness.
Therefore, you immediately head outside and get the puppy and start beating it severely in front of your son. Then you throw the puppy in a closet and slam the door, while your son stands there crying and begging you to not hurt the puppy anymore. But for the next few days, you go to the closet two or three times a day to beat the puppy, and you make your son watch as you do so. And your son is constantly begging and pleading with you all day every day to stop hurting the puppy. Your son even begs you to spank or ground or punish HIM in any way you choose instead of you beating his puppy. Nevertheless, being the wise and loving parent that you are, you absolutely LOVE your son, and you know it is your responsibility to teach your son a very valuable lesson he will never forget. After about seven days, the puppy finally dies.
Now, by golly, if THAT is not a sound a proper lesson in the consequences of not following the rules, then I don't know what is. I can pretty much guarantee you that the ungrateful little brat will definitely think twice before ever trying to sneak a cookie before supper again. Thus endeth the lesson... (Umph!....*gag*....*hand over mouth really quick*... Oh, excuse me. Just threw up in my mouth a little bit.)
Okay, JoC, there you go. Just between you and me, if Sheldon is unable to wrap his mind around that concept this time, then I'm afraid you may just have to consider him a lost cause. Cheer up, though, ol' buddy. It wasn't because you didn't try, at least. Besides, you can always comfort yourself with the knowledge there are thousands of others out there who happily accept that story as a most uplifting and inspirational example of god's love and mercy.
See? Told ya. CONTEXT!!!

Lol. Actually, I'd venture to say that no one is allowed to take texts out of context. C'mon now. Whatever you read, you always take into consideration context. Let me cite an example.

"Muslim was shot dead by US Military"
Taken out of context, this text would incite rage. But if I told you the Muslim that was shot was Osama Bin Laden, most people would be singing a different tune. In everything we read, context matters. What puzzles me is that atheists exempt the Bible from this rule. Dare I say, why the bias?
Which bible? There are many many versions, I am going to go ahead and guess you mean the version you happen to read/like/programmed to.
Glad that's settled, unless you have a point. Be forward.
I assume you are replying to my post calhais:
I thought it was obvious but I will spell it out: I am not biased against his book, I am biased against all books that make a whole bunch of extraordinary claims without a shred of proof.
Context does matter, hence the bias towards a book, JoC does not even specify which of hundreds of different bible versions he is trying to claim that atheist are biased towards. When he is also biased towards bibles and other holy books of different religions. I am pointing out the hypocrisy.
If you claim that you're biased against all books that make a whole bunch of extraordinary claims without a shred of proof and you believe that JoC's preferred translation of the Bible makes a whole bunch of extraordinary claims without a shred of proof, then you ought to believe that you're biased against JoC's preferred translation of the Bible according to your own claim.
JoC probably refers to common translations: KJV, NKJV, NIV, NASV, and the likes. Assume that all mention of the Bible refers to at least one of these when the version and translation aren't given.
Pointing out hypocrisy is a political move, not a discursive one. Also, you didn't point it out. That's what `be forward' means: try to say what you mean explicitly. 'Taking the high road here means identifying the source of both of your biases and figuring out which side makes more sense in which ways, not replying name-calling with name-calling.
I do believe JoC's translation/version of the bible is very likely to make a bunch of extraordinary claims without proof, but I do not know which one it is. But I cannot truly make the claim w/o JoC saying which book exactly he follows, I can then follow up with examples from his particular book of an extraordinary claim w/o evidence.
KJB is a popular bible and one I am familiar with. I find talking to theist they do not like to mention specifics as specifics is where others (theist and atheist alike) can point out flaws easily.
How is pointing out the hypocrisy not pointing out the hypocrisy? I literally said "I am pointing out the hypocrisy"
I would love to take the high road and figure out which side makes more sense, but when one side does not define it's side that is hard to do.
And where did I do name calling? Pointing out hypocrisy is only a political move? Where did you get that? I am not allowed to say that is hypocritical without it being a political move?
I was referring to the comment before that, since you seemed to be claiming that in that comment you had pointed out the hypocrisy, which you had not done. I agree that you pointed out hypocrisy in your next comment.
I've read the conversation over again, and calling you out about name-calling was my bad. You may think me an ass. Calling people hypocritical is a political move because it isn't productive.
Well, I guess I will call out the hypocrisy as soon as I see it instead of waiting until the next posting to "point it out."
I don't think you are an ass, even people that I strongly disagree with I do not consider to be an ass. We are all mostly anonymous here, I like to discuss/debate these topics but I never take things personally as we are anonymous and I do not hold any grudges towards anyone on these boards no matter what their opinion is. I was however curious what you considered name calling to be, so I asked and you in your reply redacted that. Question answered.
"What puzzles me is that atheists exempt the Bible from this rule. "
Almost as if theists claim it's not an ordinary book to judge by ordinary standards. Come off it now, I don't believe you can't see the special pleading in your claim here.
Either the bible is an ordinary and entirely MAN MADE book, or it's not, you can't start by claiming it's a unique message from an omniscient infallible deity, then insist it must be read in context when we notice the message appears to have all the hallmarks of human fallibility OF THAT EPOCH about it.
Try and address the idea with an open mind that a deity with omniscience and omnipotence can do no better in its message than mirror the ignorance, cruelty, and prejudice of iron age Bedouins. With the odd but incongruous benign platitude conspicuously inserted here and there.
In fact you could do worse than ask yourself candidly what the bible might look like if it were nothing more than a collection of human beliefs stitched together starting thousands of years ago, and see if the result differs in any objectively significant way.
"...this text would incite rage..."
I daresay only with Muslims. However, I NEVER pay any attention to the headline of a newspaper story. I pay it NO heed because I know those headlines are nothing more that click-bait offered by an uncaring and unscrupulous media. This is the reason I read no newspapers, do not watch TV, do not listen to the radio. They are all uncaring and unscrupulous. I am tired of hearing the bullshit from this world. Why cannot the media offer pleasant stories?
"In everything we read, context matters. What puzzles me is that atheists exempt the Bible from this rule. Dare I say, why the bias?"
No bias. we are just imitating you. You theists are always taking only the "good" stuff from the Bible and do it out of context. As I have said before many times (but not to you), why is it when someone pulls a single "good" verse from the Bible out of context, you theists go, "Aww... Ain't he a good Christian?"
But when an atheist pulls out a single verse of something "horrible", you theists scream foul? Then you will start screaming how we have taken it out of context.
As far as I am concerned, the next time someone does this "horrible" thing, do everyone a favor: Wake the fuck up. Get out of your Biblical Matrix.
Knock. Knock. JoC...
rmfr
The appropriately modified complaint is that you can't take verses out of context to support ideas that contradict the context. It should be obvious that taking verses out of context itself is necessary to quote the verses.
