So many of their "arguments" are just blatantly indefensible in terms of known logic, history and facts (sch as debates about a historical Jesus), that after awhile they just turn to "well that's what I believe". It just seems pointless.

And the literalists and evilgelicals along with everyone looking to dominate and get free labor and wants to abuse other people might bullshit about it..but they like the bible advocating slavery and they want to enslave people and because the bible says that there are no human rights,the bible gives them what they want
to make slaves of the people they dont like..

I hate the bible.

Call in and literally say words don't mean what words mean.

The bible is not God's words. It is a confusing jumble of ancient desert goat herders' imaginings.
