As someone now attracted to agnosticism after being a conservative Christian, I have to confess this sort of argument or attempt at mockery was what put me off becoming agnostic for some time. The propositions put are based on false premises: trad Christianity does not teach a person is a sinner because of what someone did 6,000 years ago. It teaches one is a sinner because of what one does now. The meme completely misunderstands the doctrine of original sin.
The serpent of Genesis is clearly symbolic; the style of the language is almost poetic in the Hebrew text in which it is written.
I"m all for mockery and exposing Christianity as not being the truth, but arguments like this are easily refuted.
I mean no offence. Please read this as an encouragement to posit intellectually robust arguments critiquing Christian belief and accompanying mockery.
Oh, you evil blasphemer, you.....
Thank you.
That's right, my friend. Like AIDS and the common cold, sin is contagious. When Adam (or maybe Eve) sinned, and then went on to have sex, and had 12 or 20 children, they transfered the sinful virus to their children, and the process reduplicated millions of times, until the present age, which, by the way, is the last one.
The only human being who did not catch the sinful virus was Jesus, because Mary's coitus was not with a man but with god himself/herself/itself.
It all makes perfect sense. Doesn't it?
It does, why would it not? Especially to suckers who want to believe it.
@St-Sinner Wanna know what the saddest part is? That many (many) years ago I believed that crap!
@COGITOERGOSUM Yes, sad. But it is not sad any more, right? Are you a born again atheist?
@St-Sinner Hallelujah brother!
