...Why? Have you ever actually read the bible without someone in a funny hat revising and fabricating every passage? Page after page of sanctioned rape, slavery, and murder for God's chosen people.
The laws laid out are primitive and nonsensical. Things like being gay, working on sunday, and committing adultery are sentenced to death by stoning. However, if you are caught raping someone's daughter, the punishment is to wed the woman.
Both old testament and new put believing in God as the most important thing anyone can do, above their family and community. Someone who doesn't believe in Christ roasts forever in the lowest circle of hell. Compared someone like Jeffery Dahmer who was "saved" and thus, goes to heaven.
Meanwhile, there is no logical foundation to believe any of this. The confusion wrought by Christianity causes boozoos to get elected, undeserving people to be persecuted, and science to be delayed. It has been nothing but a scourge on human thought since the middle ages.
