More about SCRIPTURE

[Cary Cook]

If there is a God to whom humans are accountable, then the Bible and/or other monotheistic scriptures are not his (for lack of a better pronoun) “Word” or authoritative messages from him – unless of course, he is so stupid as to deliver messages, and then allow them to be counterfeited.

Scriptures are not even introductions to him – unless he is a jumbled mass of contradictions, as all scriptures reveal their supposed God to be.  Scriptures are, however, invitations to an introduction to him, clumsily written by people in various degrees of understanding of him, some of whom were well-meaning liars who thought God wanted them to pretend knowledge of him. 

 

If there is no God to whom humans are accountable, then such liars are all we have to keep most of us out of nihilism.

 

In either case, the invitation remains on the table.  It says, ask for communication with God, and you will get it.”  It sits there annoyingly for the benefit of anyone who is willing to risk insanity for the possibility of objective purpose.
