And in the Middle Ages people were afraid of tomatoes because they were red. We learn and grow. Same thing.
Hahaha... The Middle Ages were not even that long ago... and they used leeches as medicine... to suck that evil blood out of your body... because, yeah, that makes sense...
Then ya think... hmmm... the bible was written 1500+ years BEFORE THE MIDDLE AGES
And is responsible for midle age in fact. Without the Bible there would have been no Midle age when you think about it
Close... without the bible there would be no Dark Ages... though, you could argue that the Dark Ages are the Middle Ages... so I suppose you are partially correct...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Ages_(historiography)I however, would have preferred to skip the Dark Ages... full of Christians killing everyone... the Crusades... the Inquisition... good times, eh?
Probably only set scientific progress back by 500 years
Well thanks to the Bible doctors thought for 1000 years that women had two vaginas. Anything more to add? ^^
Too many things to list....It is mind boggling.
How do they think the Bible was written? Angels whispered wisdom to whoever was listening, then those people actually wrote this down?
Or they believe God came down, became human and wrote this down, or the books just appeared?
Seriously, I'd like to know. Moloch, do you know? What is the story behind this story.
I'm not clear who actually wrote this shit.
Christians used to believe that God wrote it himself... basically through spirit possession of Moses, etc (nevermind the fact that the bible was put together in 331CE, after some dudes in a dark room voted on which books to include... how can you vote on which books God wrote?)
Then science came along and proved a few things are factually incorrect in the bible...
This led Christians to start calling it, "divinely inspired"... because it can't be God's perfect word if it isn't perfect, right?
Reminds me of Global Warming changing the name to Climate Change... After 14 years of no warming... they had to change the name...
(yeah, I'm one of those guys who doesn't believe CO2 causes global warming... basically for the same reason I deny religion, lack of scientifically acceptable evidence)
Note: Global Warming/Climate Change also uses similar tactics to religion... like, "97% of scientists believe it, so you should too" (hint: this is not an acceptable form of evidence, also a lie... complete lie... twisting of words... that statement is not factually accurate in any way)
