Originally posted by FORD And yet those are the five that have been translated and relayed more than any other, because they were passed down through the generations for 2000 years before Moses wrote them down. Or at least he's credited for doing so. Obviously Moses didn't write all of Deuteronomy since he dies before it ends.
Actually if you want to get down to the Bible's validity as an "instruction manual" just the 10 commandments and the teachings of Christ would do. Kosher dietary laws and all that are optional, although they might be more healthy than people thought. Pork gives me the shits, and I somehow developed an allergy to shellfish, so I might as well be a Jew in that respect, though I'm not gonna give up the occasional cheeseburger.
He said New Testament, the ones you continually praise as the only books of the Bible worth a shit.

Really now?
A "conservative Jesus" would have walked into the Temple, saw the money changers and said "Hey, great job, as long as I get My cut off the top".
A "conservative Jesus" would have seen the 5000 hungry people who came to hear Him speak on the Sermon on the Mount, and rather than feeding them, he would have said "Get a job, you damn losers!!"
Conservative Jesus wouldn't have healed the sick. At least not until the check cleared. And Conservative Jesus would never raised Lazarus from the dead, because he would have already found a way to swindle Mary & Martha out of their land and sold it for a profit.
Finally, Conservative Jesus wouldn't have been crucified because the Pharisees would have been his #1 political tool.

So being conservative means you're a swindler, a liar and a thief ??
