Religion Gets an Upgrade

I think religion needs to get an upgrade and try to find some common ground with science. After all the Bible was written thousands of years ago, a lot has happened since then. As my favorite comedian, Eddie Izzard, says the Bible doesn't mention dinosaurs. I think we need an addendum to the Bible mentioning the dinosaurs and other events and discoveries that have been made. I don't think God would mind, He knew about Dinosaurs, but I am sure when He was dictating the Bible he didn't want to scare his poor little superstitious humans, they were scared and scary enough.

This way we can still have sin and punish sin-- we just need to put it in a wider perspective so people will stop trying to sneak past the loopholes and sin and get away with it. Also we can still study science and being like modern humans which comes in handy sometime.

Abortion is a sin
Yes, Abortion is a sin, and so is drowning your baby in a toilet, putting it in a hefty bag or a wood chipper or doing anything that results in the death of said baby. So hiding your pregnancy and killing your baby and then pretending you are a virgin would not work under the new system.


Suicide is a sin
Yes, still is so is shooting your pilot or bus driver, causing the bus or plane to crash; or pointing a squirt gun at a policeman. You will go to hell in all instances except that if you will go to the really bad part of hell for taking innocent people with you.

Evolution does not exist, we did not come from Apes and Monkeys.
Evolution doesn't exist, there is a human like animal who is our ancestor scientists just have not found him yet, they stopped looking when they found some apes frozen in ice somewhere. We are not backward idiots scientists are just lazy.

The Earth is 5000 years old and the Universe was created in 7 days.
This is absolutely correct. What happened was when the Universe was created a day lasted 8 billion years and then the day started to slow down gradually to the 24 hours we have now. 8 billion years is a day to God, we are smaller with faster metabolisms so we experience a day faster. Do the math it all adds up.

You will go to hell if you do not accept Jesus Christ as your saviour before you die.
Just do it. I have already accepted JC as my personal Saviour, I have also accepted Allah as the one true God, and I say "Nam Myoho Renge Kyo" every now and then-- just in case. I don't know what hell is like but if it is worse than the Planet Earth it is not a place I want to go and if temporarily suspending belief can keep me out of there then I am all for it......
