Re: sin?

 Is it natural, or a constraint developed by society?  Remember that human
 beings wrote the Bible, not God... I guess it's only natural that human
 beliefs (and societal constraints) appear.  Is this really God's law?
 I'm not so sure.  I think it's God's law interpreted by human beings, with
 plenty of human beliefs thrown in to make everything confusing.
 But this doesn't prove that God specifically created them that way.  Sure,
 it's a possibility, but the other equally likely possibility is that they
 simply evolved that way.  It's difficult (for me, at least) to comprehend
 given the short span of a human life how much time an evolution like this
 would take.

Well now I agree with Bill W too.  I really think that Adultery is a sin
because society made it that way not God.  There is too much bigamy in the
bible.  I also believe that the bible consist more of our forefathers beliefs
that actual accounts.  I think Bill can vouge that I'm not a overly religious
person, but I find it hard to believe, not hard, but difficult that it
happened this way.


I also agree with Bill that the zebras eventually evolved into the striped
breed.  I don't believe that god created man either.  Our own scientific
discoveries have shown that we most likely evolved from the primate, rather
than man being taken from the earth and woman from mans rib.  I really hope
this isn't to far off base for you, but I'm really skeptical of what we are
supposed to believe.
