So when someone says to me, ‘I believe in the Bible literally.’ Well, I personally read about a chapter of The Bible a day. I just read through it over and over again. So when someone says they believe in the word of God literally, I go back and think about Genesis where people are living to be 900 years old. And I say bullshit. And I think about Noah and the flood, killing everybody? God that loves us kills everybody? And he wants to get two of every species and seven of everyone that is clean on to a boat that floats for that amount of time? And I just go, really? Because you don’t act that way. You’re able to go to Home Depot, you’re able to pay with a credit card, you’re able to go to Starbucks, you know how to use a computer. Really? You really mean that? What do you mean, ‘Literally’? Do you really mean you’re going to stone someone to death because they work on the Sabbath? Are you really going to do that? Really, honestly you’re going to take a rock in your hand and throw it at a motherfucker’s head because he worked on a Sunday to support his family? Are you really going to do that? If you mix linen and cotton are you really going to go to hell, what do you mean when you say that? And no one’s ever answered me.
