Bible Stories For Humanists And Atheists

 This may be an unusual request but I hope some of you will provide input. I am looking for reaction from parents, teachers, and even middle school students.I am currently writing a book of “stories, folk tales and legends” taken from the bible, targeted at students in grades 5-8, designed to teach the basic bible stories accurately from a secular (rather than religious) viewpoint, without glossing over awkward or embarrassing issues and stories.  This is a biblical literacy project, bible…See More

ORIGINS: UNIVERSE, LIFE, HUMANKIND, AND DARWIN

We debate origins of the Universe, life, Earth, humans, religion, atheism, using common sense, evolution, cosmology, geology, archaeology, and other sciences, to repel biblical creationism and other religious beliefs.

Hello, Arthur;

I do apologize for my improprieties, some months back.  I am not one for excuses, but I hope you will realize the weight of what I am saying.  I am bipolar, and tend towards mania rather strongly; at such times I become haughty, ostensibly nonsensical, and especially contentious.  I hope I can at least redeem myself for being something of a massive fuckwit, as I normally prefer showing respect over tossing around invectives.

Hope you are well.  Cheers & ciao!

Hello Arthur, and welcome to this friendly meeting place with its thousands of freethinkers who recognise how religions deceive and control vulnerable people beginning sadly with innocent children.
