It means 3 or 4 more sets of twins and you qualify as a good Mormon or Catholic. They love big families.

Dear Faithful: please believe me when I say that this is not representative of all atheists, and that the courteous (at least) atheists among us have only disdain for this kind of misbehavior.

Differences in beliefs should not be labeled as “full of shit.”

(Well, except for hollow-earthers.)

I think we’re all kind of coming together in friendship and general bonhomie over the singular inanity of the OP. So nice, he had to post it thrice! 😃

You asserted without evidence, so I dismissed without evidence.

I cite the claim of the OP on the basis of Gen 3 of the book He/she cited.

So Full evidence cited given the claim given the source he/she gave.

Now it is up to you, given your claim, to defend it, or tuck your tail (very small tail) between your legs and retreat.

Game, Set, Match

God is in charge of the _Arts & Entertainment_ Network?

My understanding is that, due to changes in the pelvic girdle due to walking upright, and the sizes of our craniums, that child birth in humans is, in fact, unusually painful and dangerous, at least as compared to other mammals.

So, therefore, obviously, Jesus.

Nope.  
This is not a debate and I am not foisting this off on any other forum.

Closed.
