Some idiot decided to make up a story and everyone was so gullible that over time, it became to be known as "Religion."

This is a very direct and combative assertion, that is both insulting, and lacking in evidence.

It is the difference between me saying ChronicTacos is stupid because he is named after food, and I disagree with ChronicTacos opinon because of x. Try to keep this more civil, or I will shut this thread down.

This. Also, I'm not seeing any citations from the New Testament in that image. Nice try though.

If the way I phrased my opinion offended/insulted anyone.
I apologize as that is not my intention.

Please explain how the Bible is a credible source.
Since you are asking for citations.

Edit:
@Kero
ChronicTacos is a place, not a food. :3

This would be more accurately titled "Traditional Marriage as defined by the Torah".

Seeing as all the passages quoted come from the Torah (Jewish holy scripture), which makes up the first 5 books of the Old Testament in the Christian bible. Seeing as the bible has at least 66 books ( As accepted by Protestants), it would be better to describe it as Torah, rather than the Bible, seeing as this leaves out 61 books of the Bible, but includes all 5 books of the Torah.

Also, people really need to stop taking the Old Testament literally. The Old Testament should be looked at more of as theoretical lessons and praise of God. The New Testament is a much more cheerful and clear thing.

Ok, traditional marraige as described by the Biblie AND Torah. You can't escape your past that easily.

Also, the only parts of the bible I would consider taking literally are in the old testament. The new testament is just...a retold story. A fanciful one at that.

I believe in evolution, but am still a Christian (Lutheran). Does that clarify my opinion of the Old Testament?

Yes actually, but only a little. Unfortunately this is a web forum and not a proper discussion. I'd really prefer to have a more detailed discussion on the merits of genisis than a forum will allow.

Seeing that Cero and prodigy isn't responding, I shall move on.

@fritterdonut
Since you believe in evolution and at the same time religious.
I would like to know more about your beliefs.
I actually do enjoy discussions of this topic.

Torah is the only accurate title for the topic simply because at some point Christ declared the Old Testament invalid since he had arrived.

I'm not finding the verse. In class and too lazy due to projects for finals.
