Raggy � I agree that Islam is bizarre, but for the truly insane, read the Bible. It�s completely bonkers!
For example�
Genesis 6:5-7, 8:21
God decides to send a great flood to kill all humans, save Noah and his family, because man's heart is evil. Later, after the flood waters recede, God promises never to do it again because man's heart is evil.
Why should our evil imaginations first doom us and then save us? Why does a perfect God change his mind about how to deal with us when we have not changed? The Bible does not tell us the answer.
Ezekiel 13:18-20
"Thus saith the Lord God, Woe to the women that sew pillows.... Behold, I am against your pillows."
But God's wrath doesn't end with pillows, oh no. In 13:21 he further promises to spill out his anger on kerchiefs ("Your kerchiefs also will I tear"), and just a few verses earlier, in 13:15, he swears terrible vengeance against a wall. ("Thus will I accomplish my wrath upon the wall.") What God has against innocent masonry and embroidery is not explained.
Luke 20:35
The Sadducees, a Jewish sect that rejected the idea of resurrection, try to entrap Jesus by asking him the following question: If a woman marries a husband who then dies, and she remarries, and if this happens multiple times, which man's wife will she be in Heaven? Jesus responds that "they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage."
In other words, Jesus said that only people who never married will go to Heaven. This means that Adam, Abraham, Noah, Moses, David, Lot, Solomon, Joseph and Mary, Peter - practically all the heroes and great figures of the Bible - will be condemned.
D�oh!
