"This is a mythological theory, but, It is said that When Zeus was coming down to punish the humans for doing something bad (i dont remember what it was) Apollo toke all the people he could and put them on his carriage and rode them to the skies...Now, he accidentally rode them to close to the sun,and they got "burned"..Thus creating "Black" people....And for the rest of people that DIDNT get in his carriage, they remained white." --Mike who dose not have an LJ account left this on my away message.--
My reply: Yes, but that is Greek Mythology. Where there is little room left to question things. They have an answer for everything. I'm asking questions pertaining mostly to the Bible. Actually, the Christian bible more or less. See I havent read it. So I'm actually looking for a learning experience as well. Because as you well know I don't belive in the Bible, nor do I belive in God or the Devil. Personall choice. And the disbelife in the bible is seperate from the disbelife in God. I threw away the credibility of the bible when I came out of the closet. Simply because if God is as forgiving and understanding as the Bible says, should he not forgive the "sins?" And if there were a God, did he not create me? Therefore HE created gays, just as he did blacks and whites. (Assuming this is true of course) So what I want to know, also, if God created people why do we NOT have a tendency towards perection.For thoes of you who listened in BASIC 9th grade bio, you know that ANY species dose not have a tendency towards perfection, but towards what works. If God created people why do we have back problems, knee problems, AIDS, Ect. Ect. Wouldn't God know what he was doing before he did it? Wouldn't if you created something you attempt to make it run smoothly?
Honestly people...I'm not trying to make anyone not belive. This is a SERIOUS post for you guys. Answer honestly and OPEN MINDEDLY. Dont start the "You're going to hell" blah blah blah shit. Just be open and honest.Not mean and ignorant. Thank you.
If God understands people, and is so great and powerful, why do we need to repent? Why do we have to ASK him to forgive us? It sounds like a "power trip" (for lack of a BETTER, less controversile word. Keep that in mind.) to me. Like not quite a "power trip," you know what I mean don't you?
