bible phf: "And when they discover he is Jewish? “The Chinese think we are the smartest people in the world, after the Chinese,” he said. “They say, ‘Very clever, very good at business.’ It’s an honor to be Jewish in China. They say they would like to imitate the Jews.” Among the best-selling books in China this year were “The Jewish People’s
Bible for Business and Managing the World” and “The Jewish Way of Raising Children.”"
mircea_popescu: yes well, the understanding of the

Bible. It's so much more concise.

mircea_popescu:
bible is rather explicit on the point that if your brother dies, you're stuck with the widow.

danielpbarron: most important is to believe in the entire
Bible, the rest follows.
danielpbarron: trinque, I don't think there is any mention of bigfoot in The
Bible danielpbarron: I can see why the levianthan would be particularly hard to accept, seeing as how the thing is supposed to currently be alive in the ocean, whereas many of the other far-fetched sounding things in The
Bible are supposed to have only existed long ago
diana_coman: <mircea_popescu> really, byzantine fiction (currently known as the vulgate) is much better. but i don't think much more of the people who regard the
bible as "great writing" than of the tolkien fans. <- fans, lol; out of curiosity: an example as to "much better"?
mircea_popescu: really, byzantine fiction (currently known as the vulgate) is much better. but i don't think much more of the people who regard the
bible as "great writing" than of the tolkien fans.
mircea_popescu: in other lulz, derpy listing on argentine govt site links to an institutional website on "blogpot.com". which is apparently owned, by some
bible people.
danielpbarron: you kick the habit when you believe The
Bible. Christ is the only cure. You do not need some other asshole's book
danielpbarron: I'd compare what he said to what The
Bible says (i'm sure he'd cite chapter and verse) and if I didn't think it checked out I'd challenge him on it
Framedragger: jurov: heh.
bible as a list of optimisation heuristics for simulating the 'verse
jurov: you can always use the simulation loophole, like "even some atheists say that we live in simulated universe, so it's likely God saved cycles and really started the sim for 6400 years ago, and other things
Bible says likewise"
danielpbarron: in the sense that God causes everything, nobody has "full control" over anything, but I mean my control vs yours or anyone in here -- say if you wanted me to teach something that contradicted The
Bible danielpbarron: not if i have to seriously worship a false god or something. Or lie about worshipping one. If I have full control of the doctrine and what is taught (strictly The
Bible, specifically as it is interpreted by Darwin Fish on atruechurch.info) then I might be interested
God: What’s your favorite story from the
bible?
mircea_popescu: i suppose mormon smith imagined europe needs "a new kind of mormon
bible". you know, the one they've had for about 2k years.
mircea_popescu: historically, they tried to control commentary on the
bible, for it distracted from
bible study.
shinohai: I know *that* asciilifeform ... I live in so-called
Bible Belt
danielpbarron: that's about how long it's been if you add up the years between all the guys listed in the geneology in The
Bible, and then add how long it's been ~since Christ
mircea_popescu: sure. but not quite the same holy
bible now and there as it was then.
danielpbarron: I don't claim to or care to study all religion, except to say that I will often look into those claiming to believe the
Bible for the purpose of exposing false teachings to whoever showed it to me
mircea_popescu: are you gonna engage the debate or quote
bible at it ?
PeterL: danielpbarron do you read things like the gospel of thomas, or do you just stick with what is in the traditional
bible?
danielpbarron: that's generally my position: not thrilled about non-
Bible establishment, but totally in favor of kingdom in which Biblical law is enforced
mircea_popescu: anyway. there's little doubt, if nothing else for gm reasons, that the original #
bible-a was rather anti-establishment ; and then got reshaped into something more tolerant once the wot involved ended up in power irl.
phf: if danielpbarron started discussing finer points of the
bible, like, say, specific choices of food for lent, the entire thread is "crazy"
solrodar: seriously, I think you should return it whether you believe in the
bible or not
danielpbarron: you who doesn't believe the
Bible are going to say what someone who beileves in the
Bible should do?
solrodar: no, because nobody here except you gives a crap what the
bible says
solrodar: I'm sure I could find some law about unjust enrichment in the
bible if I looked hard enough
