I believe we all have a bit of inherent misogeny, racism, selfishness, and great capacity for great good or evil depending on what your social construct of the day is. We all also possess deep yearning for understanding of the universe and a bigger in life purpose for our existence within us which often leads people to seek it out through religion.
You are just selling the religious short. There are many more accomplished biblical scholars who are religious than otherwise. Likewise, even without the credentials, there are many religious people who have deeply examined their faith in the context of theology and history and science and have managed to reconcile them. I'd like to hear those points of views. There's no need for this condescending attitude. It is what always spoils these discussions.

condescending? cmon....nice try, my points are no more condescending than Thor's or anyone elses.
If you dont like my "opinion" put me on ignore.
I would think that based on the comments
I respond to from many of the religious on this board, education of their particular choice is based solely on the bible or the word of their pastor, the historicity of their choice is largely unknown.
You are entitled to believe what you want, your choice, just as with the religious.
