Today’s Short Reading From the Bible…From Genesis:

"And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."

Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!

Yep. :D
 
I just need to find that corner...I don't give a damn what shape the earth is
 
Actually it was penned before they knew that the earth was round. The writer thought it was a big flat - like a square of paper - and a map would have corners.

Simple mistake by our predecessors. What is necessary is "do you have faith in the Bible...knowing that portions were wrong" or not. Personally, I have faith-period. I do not worry about portions of the Bible...I actually am not concerned with a good portion of the Bible (horrors)...I simply believe in God and if I don't get it dead-assed right as far as (human made) religions say - I will still not be afraid of meeting God when the stuff hits the fan for me. I did what I thought was right, didn't steal (much), never hurt anybody out of malice, never messed with another man's bethrothen wife, and never loaned money on interest (usuary-see old testament).
 
Spoiler!,....you mean to say the earth is ROUND?.......we're a little behind the times down here I guess.
 
The last portions of the Bible were written around 200 A.D. Still had another 1,300-1,400 years before we figured out the earth-is-round part.
 
Come on guys......this was meant as a joke. Lets not get serious about it.

Trust me no thinking person looked up at the moon and then looked as far as he/she could across the land and thought the earth was flat only the preachers of the time were that stupid.
