You mean you havent got a degree in Death Star Mechanics, do you know how many people it takes to build one of those !

A degree in this is about as valuable as a degree in Theoloy, its just a completely non subject.

Star Wars is actually an incredible good example of how atheists see the bible, just a good story but utterly fiction.

Christians can quote the bible and I will quote yoda and I reckon my quotes are more useful for modern day life

LOL. What do you know about theology?

Theologians were debating free will long before the philosophers and the neuroscientists. Modern philosophy of mind is nothing but a rerun of stuff they did in THE FIFTEENTH CENTURY. Your attitude is exactly what has prevented people from seeing this and making use of their achievements.

Theologians came up with the concept of mass. Not the physicists, not the chemists, the theologians.

Theology- a non subject? Hardly. Try reading the people you criticise.

 care to tell us where you got that from?

err Theology the study of the nature of god.

As there is no evidence whatsoever of the existance of god it is a totally and utterly non subject and yes it has as much value as a degree in death star design or a degree in Klingon. Through both of those sound actually quite fun I wouldnt expect to contribute much to society with those.

Philosophy can have some uses in my opinion (through not everyone even agrees on that).

Study of religion, thats useful too,  god with a 99.9999% certainity doesnt exist but religion definitely does and has a major influence on humanity (usually bad but not always)

But I safely safe that theology has not contributed one useful thing in the history of mankind (not to say some theologists havent but generally with their science hats on).

Now where do I get to do my Klingon lessons?

Fixing ..... someone else's words [  ]

Randal: "There was something else going on in Jedi. I never noticed it 'til today. They build another Death Star, Right?"
Dante: "Yeah."
Randal: "Now, the first one was completed and fully operational before the rebels destroyed it."
Dante: "Luke blew it up. Give credit where credit's due."
Randal: "And the second one was still being built when they blew it up."
Dante: "Compliments of Lando Calrissian."
Randal: "Something just never sat right with me that second time around. I could never put my finger on it, but something just wasn't right."
Dante: "And you figured it out."
Randal: "The first Death Star was manned by the Imperial army. The only people on board were Storm troopers, Dignitaries, Imperialists."
Dante: "Basically."
Randal: "So when they blew it up, no problem. Evil's punished."
Dante: "And the second time around?"
Randal: "The second time around it wasn't even done being built yet. It was still under construction."
Dante: "So?"
Randal: "So, a construction job of that magnitude would require a hell of lot more manpower than the Imperial army had to offer. I'll bet they brought independent contractors in on that thing. Plumbers, aluminum siders, roofers--"
Dante: "Not just Imperialists. Is that what you're getting at?"
Randal: "Exactly. In order to get it built quickly and quietly, they'd hire anybody that could do the job. You think the average Storm Trooper knows how to install a toilet main? All's they know is killing and white uniforms."
Dante: "Alright, so, they bring in independent contractors. Why are you so upset at it's destruction."
Randal: "All those innocent contractors brought in to do the job are killed, casualtios of a war they had nothing to do with. Alright, look, you're a roofer. Some juicy government contract comes your way. You've got a wife and kids, the two-story in suburbia. This is a government contract which means all sorts of benefits. Along come these left-wing militants who blast everything within a three-mile radius with their lasers. You didn't ask for that; you had no personal politics. You're just trying to scrape out a living."

(Incidently there are some good historical based arguments that the original Gospels were not intended to be presented as historical fact either.
Back then there was a popular Jewish literary fashion called Midrash.
It seems that the narrative of the Gospels fits this style better than that of the historical documents at the time.)

Being a christian and actually being a scholar of  the history of the times covered when the bible was allegidly written are totally incompatible.

A historian tries to to take evidence from multiple sources to try to understand what.where, why and by whom  actions took place in the past a christian well believes what ever the translation of his holy book  says.

It's an  interesting  point that religious people make that you can't study the bible if you dont believe in god, I could throw that back in their faces and actually say you cant seriously study the bible if you actually a christian?
