the question is, does god even endorse the bible at all. if you watch the movie you might question that for yourself. regardless of the version, it comes from a source that was written in a time when man thought the stars were little holes poked out of a shell to allow god's light to shine through, and the earth was flat and the sun orbited the earth and so-on. it dosnt seem to hold up in a time where we are watching electrons orbit atoms and the big bang happening write before our eyes. there is a lot of truth to the bible but these truths are all metaphors for an even more unbelievable and undeniable truth. today we have the ability to question things ourselves not just take the leader's word for it. today we have the ability to manipulate matter with the power of our minds alone. and yet 75 percent of the christian population believes that they are going to heaven as they repeatedly commit crimes against the god they preach.

If God didn't exist, it'd be in man's nature to invent one 😛

and the god man invented would be a powerful one considering man is inventing the world he lives in.

I have several but nothing compares to the classic Stanton 3 inch wooden pieces with the wooden inlaid board. My wife bought me an antique wooden board of unknown wooden inlay squares and mother of pearl fancy inlay scrolling and art work at the corners. No idea of price or any history. The dealer told her he got it with the store. I polish it with bees wax and bought an expensive set of 3 and a half inch ebonized pieces of Stanton mfg. I love it but never get to show it off. No chess players within reasonable driving distance.
