Subject: Re: Separation of Church and State?
Yes, that ridiculousness targeted at one person, but for me it was the grandiose anger and vindictiveness and genocidal violence of the Flood, the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, the plagues on Egypt, the punishments after the golden calf, the complete destruction of the Amalekites, and during the conquest of Canaan where He commanded the annihilation of whole cities and peoples (and on and on).

I started having doubts in junior high. Don't remember exactly when. I was asking questions even earlier. I think my first conundrum was "how did they fit two of everything in the Ark?". Never got an answer to that one. Sometime after, "where did all the water come from, and where did it go?" (referencing the Flood). I didn't start questioning the morality stuff until high school, I think. By the time I finished college, I knew the bible didn't have any truth in it at all (at least not factual).
