The Myth of Meaning

[tame_deuces]

Churches, bibles, crosses - I'm fairly certain most of them fall under the false idols category anyway.

Seriously, does it take an atheist to see that most christians worship these _things_ more than they worship god these days?

The bible is seen as near infallible, when its meaning can mean different things in different translations. The cross is used as a symbol that people rever and worship and the rituals taking place in churches take presedence over many people's worship of their god.

I'm no theist, but atleast in the bible stories Jesus and his followers travelled the lands, discussed with scholars, debated customs and practices in accordance with their belief and helped people they met. They didn't sit around with a book and quote it religiously every time they encountered some resistance - and religion wasn't something they just happened to do every sunday either.
