What's your religion?

having studied cosmology for two years...i can say that science will never have all the answers, all theories require something to exist for any further creation to occur. what gets complicated is, using scientific logic, for a "god" to exist, it must have been created as well...

heh yup, the christian argument would of course be, a god that created science and logic doesn't necesarily have to conform to what we currently consider 'the rules' of those belief systems.

You can believe it's a fairytale but I recommend you to keep on reading cause you'll find lots of lessons you can apply in your life.

These are just accepted theories. Besides, the bible, at the most of its parts, don't use straight language nor dates are stabilished.

The bible says: "Sons, you shall search for knowledge" so, again, read the bible a bit more.

Try the New world translation. Its in modern English without any thee,thys,thous, and other nonsense words that were outdated sense the mid-times. These aren't the original languages of the bible, it was written in Hebrew.

no it wasn't. The original 'bible', by which we would be discussing the New Testament, was originally written in a vernacular greek language variant. There are certain scriptures that are told to have been written originally in Hebrew, but it has been deemed unlikely, and there is no proof that it was originally in Hebrew.

I guess the non-straight language is not related directly with some lost words in english. Even in portuguese, which is my natural language, these parabolas and metaphors remained in the bibles writen in modern portuguese. Those who tried to decifrate some of the puzzled chapters made a mistake: they put their own conclusions, they tried to make those conclusions look like the definitive truth.
