Hmm.. I've just been reading more stuff at Fundies Say and realised yet another contradiction to the bibble.. It's not really worth its own post, but I just want to write it somewhere before I forget it (which happens only too often.)
Let's go back to the Garden of Eden, shall we? Yeah, so Eve ate the fruit and damned the human race and blah blah blah. Some say this made gawd angry, and now women have to experience such serious pain during childbirth. But wait. Hold on a moment. Childbirth? If gawd intended that Adam and Eve live forever in that garden, there'd be no need to reproduce. Yeah, I know, that's been thought of before. Now they go out and die, so they have to create children blah blah blah. But I'm saying back up a minute. If they were to be eternal at first, why would they even HAVE the ability to reproduce? That's certainly not going to help matters- letting every creature reproduce and never die off (and thus never creating more space for others.) How was that garden supposed to cope? Or maybe, gawd created the ability for humans (and other animals?) to reproduce AFTER we all were damned. But if that was the case, how could you say that gawd then made childbirth painful? There was no childbirth to begin with. You can't add onto something that isn't there. Either Earth was doomed from the get-go, via overcrowding in a tiny garden, because gawd gave these guys the ability to reproduce (and later made it painful); or childbirth was ALWAYS painful, and so you can't place a fault on gawd for making it moreso. It was just like that from the start, and no matter what Eve did, she couldn't have avoided that pain.
Eh. That's my (anti)religious thought of the day... err.. week?.. longer? Ah well, it's my thought for this time. Good enough.
