      uhhh yes money does... just think for a second because i dont wanna have to name the many things money makes people do and what money can tell people to do.

      and if you believe there is no God then the bible is just paper to you. The same as money. so think of that before your rebuttle if there is one.

          Money is is just a store and measure of wealth, people do all sorts of bad things to obtain money sure. (bible - the love of money is the root of all evil, it doesnt just say that money is the root of all evil), but money in itself is neutral. Religion is a set a doctrines, beliefs and ways of behaviour it does tell people how to think and how to behave.

          I didnīt say there is no God, that would depend on your definition. Certainly I dont believe in the god of the Bible, because the bible is a collection of documents written over centuries, edited, re-arranged, at times inconsistent, contradictory, while being poorly understood and abused. To me it is the flawed work of man,and not something direct from god. all you need to do is look at the history of how the Bible came together to what it is today and it becomes obvious, this stuff isnt taught in schools. Religion for its own survival teaches it is better to believe or have faith, than think for yourself and question.

          The Bible itself is not to blame for atrocities, it is the way people use it and have used it for their own purposes or to enforce their own political or personal agenda. Just look at the Christian right and fundamentalists in the US.
