You say i'm insulting and attacking your book, when basically i'm saying that views coming directly from the book should not be the basis of direct debate.
In fact, Spyells, your statement was very much influencing towards Christianity, and also very manipulative from a religious standpoint. You also posted yours first and then decide to critisize my post after you insulted an entire group of people by saying they should be ostrasized from society due to their mindset. You gave no other reasoning than "my religion said so" and when you were challenged on it, said "this isn't about religion."

You called the book stupid. I considered that a direct attack from you when you didn't even take the time to understand the book. Unless of course I am mistaken and you know the book a great deal.
I was going by it by a religious stand point. I never said anything about being ostracized from society. That is putting words in my mouth.
