Citing Scripture

    Citing Scriptures, as the previous article notes, would not  help us naturalists to accept God. We recognize them as contradictory to themselves and to  reality. Their false history, regnant immoral codes and the Christian idea of salvation repulses us.

     http://forgedbible.blogpost.comWhat rational person would accept the uncorroborated rants of uncorroborated writers who revel in miracles without foundation, contradict science otherwise? Why would she want to observe those irrational commands of the Tanakh that orthodox Jews follow, except for the stoning commands? Why would she think herself worthy of Hell of any sort when that Zoroastrian barbarism common to both Christ=insanity and Muhammad's Fits  fits barbarism that is worse than anthropogenic evils in being eternal for most of those  faiths.

      Why would any rational person follow the Tanakh whose Yahweh  is such a monster, who commands genocide and hardens hearts to keep people from repenting? Why would any rational person follow that irrational cult leader who came to bring a sword, break up  families and wanted his sheep to hate other or else translated as loving him more than loving others and warned then of  persecution as would any other cult leader? Why would any rational person follow the Scriptures of a hallucinatory man who was a child molester and reveled in war?

      Why would any rational person follow the Scriptures of the Hindu Illusion or the Buddha Wrong Path that push reincarnation? Why would he follow those of the Jains when they advocate letting parasites that harm live? Why would he follow those of the Zoroaster Remnant [ Parsees] when they also have Hell? Why follow those of the Dao No Way?
      And why follow those of Smith's Fraud which not only include those of Christianity but those of that scam artist? Why follow his when he just made up everything? Amerindians are not of the Lost Tribes.
       I exhort rational people to eschew all scriptures and all other woo. The supernatural reeks of superstition and is the twin of the paranormal, both of which remain what the recently late Dr. Paul Kurtz calls " The Transcendental Temptation," a must read book.
      We rationalists exhume both the supernatural and the paranormal as coming short of the glory of humanity.
