    Oh, shit, if the rapture actually happens, I’m going to be so fucked trying to take care of all those pets.

      No you won’t. If it actually happens, only the ones that followed the word of God get to go. Not the ones that twisted it, or were rich while poor existed.

      Hardly anyone will get to go.

        Have you read the book?? God is a controlling psycho mass murderer. Those people will get in.

        The rest of the book, with the good bits, is just to make the idiots complacent.

          “I don’t like Christianity, therefore the Bible is not canon to itself.”

            Current Bible has been rewritten a bunch of times by different people. Definitely not canon.

              It’s not a millenia-long game of whisper down the lane. We have access to the original text. And we still cross-reference different translations to be sure.

                Uh, aren’t the original texts that were compiled to make the bible long gone? What “original texts” are you referring to? A cursory search couldn’t find anything except Christian pages saying the original texts no longer exist.
