ABSURD BIBLE VERSES.... COULD A REAL GOD BE THIS STUPID?

Just READ some these absurd verses starting with the book of Genesis.


The first day God creates light and separates light from darkness, and day from night.

Yet he didn't make the light producing objects (the sun and the stars) until the fourth day (1:14-19). 1:3-5

God spends one-sixth of his entire creative effort (the second day) working on a solid firmament. This strange structure, which God calls heaven, is intended to separate the higher waters from the lower waters. 1:6-8

Plants are made on the third day before there was a sun to drive their photosynthetic processes (1:14-19). 1:11

In an apparent endorsement of astrology, God places the sun, moon, and stars in the firmament so that they can be used "for signs".

"He made the stars also." God spends a day making light (before making the stars) and separating light from darkness; then, and almost as an afterthought, he makes the trillions of stars. 1:16

"And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth." 1:17

"I have given you every herb ... and every tree ... for meat." 1:29

"He rested."
2:2
God gets tired?

"The tree of life ... and the tree of knowledge of good and evil."

God created two magic trees: the tree of life and the tree of knowledge. Eat from the the first, and you live forever (3:22); eat from the second and you'll die the same day (2:17).

That's what God said, but......

Adam ate from the tree of knowledge and lived for another 930 years or so (5:5).

But he never got a change to eat from the tree of life. God prevented him from eating from the tree of life before Adam could eat from the tree, become a god, and live forever.) 2:9

God makes the animals and parades them before Adam to see if any would strike his fancy. But none seem to have what it takes to please him. After making the animals, God has Adam name them all. The naming of several million species must have kept Adam busy for a while. 2:18-20

God's clever, talking serpent. 3:1

God walks and talks (to himself?) in the garden, and plays a little hide and seek with Adam and Eve. 3:8-11

God curses the serpent. From now on the serpent will crawl on his belly and eat dust. 3:14

God curses the ground and causes thorns and thistles to grow. 3:17-18

God kills some animals and makes some skin coats for Adam and Eve. 3:21

God expels Adam and Eve from the garden before they get a chance to eat from that other tree -- the tree of life.

God knows that if they do that, they well become "like one of us" and live forever. 3:22-24

Cain is worried after killing Abel and says, "Every one who finds me shall slay me." 4:14

"And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD." 4:16

"And Cain knew his wife." 4:17

Lamech kills a man and claims that since Cain's murderer would be punished sevenfold, whoever murders him will be punished seventy-seven fold. 4:23-24

"And to Seth ... was born a son." 4:26

God created a man and a woman, and he "called their name Adam." too! 5:2

The first men had incredibly long life spans. 5:5, 5:8, 5:11, 5:14, 5:17, 5:20, 5:23, 5:27, 5:31, 9:29

Enoch doesn't die he just ascends into heaven. 5:21-24

When Lamech was born, nine generations were alive at once. Adam, Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, Jared, Enoch, Methuselah, and Lamech were all alive at the time of Lamech's birth. Adam lived to see his great-great-great-great-great-great-grandson. 5:25

When Noah was 500 years old, he had three sons.
[Three sons in one year? Was that with one (nameless) wife or several?] 5:32

The "sons of God" copulated with the "daughters of men," and had sons who became "the mighty men of old, men of renown." 6:2-4

"The LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh."

God shortened the human lifespan to 120 years because humans are "flesh" and he was tired of fighting with them. 6:3

"There were giants in the earth in those days." 6:4

God decides to kill all living things because the human imagination is evil. Later (8:21), after he kills everything, he promises never to do it again because the human imagination is evil. 6:5
