Fair enough.....

I see the Bible (now) like a box full of broken glass and diamonds. Some diamonds tossed out for for glass. Easier to say "it is all perfect" than to dig through and sort the diamonds from the glass. Might get your fingers bloody.

My (mental) salvation as a child came with the parable of the talents (use your brain). From then on, 'faith and gods will' became the 'I am afraid to question' answer.

So, anyhow, bottom line, it is a creepy (broken glass) story.....

That is your position. Okay. I am not going to burn you until you renounce your ways. ;~)

That does not make you right or me wrong.

It only means that one of us has not dug for the true meaning.

I am not afraid to question, I can't keep membership in one church for more that a few months.

Instead of the gap being me not questioning, is it possible that you just gave up trying to understand?
