But they are a testament to the industrious nature of the Lord and His willingness to provide for humanity! How else could there be so many identical relics found over thousand of years?

Apparently having a redundant creature entry causes the game to say, "Oh, look, it's crazy world now. Nothing makes sense! Alligators live in houses!"

Do you mean to imply that a stark similaritys between items implys that the lord is responcible for this design?

The whole idea of relics is stupid. It really couldn't be holy just because it touched Jesus.
But if Jesus pissed on it... watch out e-bay.

"Having faith" that the bridge will not fall, implies that the bridge itself isn't that trustworthy. It's not that different from "I pray that the bridge will hold my weight."

True.  I mean, how could Jesus have so many foreskins otherwise?

I think a possible interpretation of that quote would be that Christians were the intended end result of Judaism.

Wow, and I thought the Jews were being blamed for everything before...

There are other informative prophecies in the Bible. For example, you can learn that David Hasselhoff is the AntiChrist.

This would explain a great deal...

Sorry Urist I'm pretty aggressively atheist. At least until some provides some kind of indication of a god, then I'll review my position. Of course if I ever got to the point where a god was at all possible, or even, likely then there would have to be a serious discussion with her about the mess she causes.

Speaking of prophecy it's fairly shocking how many can be found in any large book, especially ones in vaguely translated languages. I also read that some researcher found moby dick very accurate, although google is not being helpful today.

Sci-fi authors have of course been remarkably accurate with predictions, right down to the name things are call. Of course that is really more dictation than prophecy. Still tomato tomato

I personally think that no matter what happens G-d is in control and no matter what happens it's the best thing that could have happened while following the rules that G-d has set for the world.

Delusion has never made so much sense.

Also, what's with taking the 'o' out of God?

It's a Jewish thing. Read about Kabbalah or somethin' along those lines.

Well the idea is that the personal name is of G-d is too holy to say or write. So G-d is also too holy to write down.

God is everywhere.

Ergo, God is everyone.

Therefore everyones name is too holy to write.
