It's not the fun kind but the ID Discovery channel kind - with Yahweh telling his favorite prophet to sacrifice his son and then at the last minute calling "psych!" or tormenting Job because of gambling with his Adversary.

The Old Testament is the DSM IV of religious texts.

Have you noticed how many minds are blown when you point out that god and the devil are up in heaven's throne room bull-shiting?

Thrown out of heaven, was he? Can't ever go back, can he? Then what was the devil doing in Job, chapter one?

I've noticed a lot of selective filtering when it comes to the actual contents of the Bible. Yahweh gambling with Satan, Lot offering up his daughters to a rape-mob and declaring them virgins to make them more appealing, etc. They all remember the anti-gay parts though.

And the New Testament parts where Paul is being a dick.

Paul is not being a dick, he is laying a holy smack down. Putting weemen in their place. blah, blah, blah.

I am going to stop now. It is too easy to get pissed at these people.
