Sounds like oppression to me. Funny how someone claims some belief or religion is oppressive and yet they throw this in my face when clearly I can decide to believe whatever the fuck I want. I can’t even call myself an atheist without some atheist making us all look bad.
Freedom bitches! Woot!

People live their lives bound by what they accept as correct and true thats how they define reality. But what does it means to be correct and true...??? Merely vague concepts... Reality may all be a mirage... can we consider them to simply be living in their own world and shape by their beliefs...???

I’m a living example of choosing what to believe. I believe the Bible is open to interpretation, and I interpret that the Bible does not specify the method or means that he created the universe, nor does it specify that the “day” is actually 24 Earth hours.

Therefore, it’s perfectly feasible to believe God created all the animals on the planet via the Darwinian theory of evolution and such. And there’s nothing saying that He didn’t intervene in the evolutionary process to stimulate the evolution of humans.

I’m the one who dont believe in evolution...

I believe God intervene with life... if He want one species vanish... He will do it... and he will replace it with another species...

Life didnt come via accident... Life suddenly exist with perfect form in Pre Cambrian Age...

Animals at Pre Cambrian Age already have complicated structures... evolution cant answer why... abiogenesis just a theory...

God create everything from clay and water...

I think that what that person means (you know who he is) is that people of certain religions seem to deny the existence of violence or detestable behaviour by their prophets and ancestors in their respective holy books.

The point of his argument was to get those people who believe the bible is the infalible word of god and that they must obey every word.

That saying usually gets applied to (and should only get applied to) individuals who claim that the Bible is the infallible word of god and that certain parts have to be taken literally...but then conveniently the part that applies to them is “only metaphorical”. The “you can’t pick and choose” comment should only be applied to hypocritical people.

Otherwise...of course you should choose what you believe. Many people who follow the Bible have different interpretations, not only of individual passages, but of the nature of the book itself (e.g. largely metaphorical, partly metaphorical, literal word of god, etc.) They have a right to their ideas.

My point exactly.

From reading all the crap on here its obvious the person whose been throwing this phrase around is misusing it because he’s throwing it at people who believe in the Bible but in a more metaphorical way and know the Bible is not infallible, which is exactly why they don’t take it all literally.

The phrase is just another way to twist things. They call it strawmen.
