Maybe I'm confused
No argument from me.
There is and overflowing, living, breathing, dynamic, present and available, unending expression of life and universe in and around you; so why do you choose to learn about it's nucleus and essence from a stupid, superstitious, old book about an obsolete tribal-deity that wouldn't have the sense to put his pants on right-side out? "Confused", isn't the half of it.

Hi Joel, I believe god's promise to Noah was that he'd never again use a flood to destroy the earth, hence the rainbow. Is that what you're talking about?
Hellrider, didn't god send an angel to kill every firstborn in Egypt that time?
Interesting question James. I consider myself a christian, and since Jesus CHRIST said all scripture is inspired and beneficial, it's not so hard for me to believe.

Crank,
James,
The American Indians say if you put the Bible outside the wind and rain will eventually destroy it. The wind and rain are their Gods. So as you say, look around you.
Welcome Woodsman.
Yes, the way i heard it is along the lines: Whereas you receive knowledge about God from words on paper which come to nothing in the wind and the rain, we receive knowledge of God from the wind and rain.
Generally speaking, the American Indian's sense of God was far greater and far closer than known by Christian, Jew or Muslim.
