The Bible isn't a very good read. The stories are one-dimensional and the morals are mostly barbaric.

Well he'll be able to first-handedly know that barbarism

Grrr. I can never stand the sight of that bible when its lying around but now that I want to quote from it I can't find it. The passage I was looking for was in Corinthians though.

Now I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head. And every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head—it is just as though her head were shaved. If a woman does not cover her head, she should have her hair cut off; and if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut or shaved off, she should cover her head. A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of man. For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; neither was man created for woman, but woman for man. For this reason, and because of the angels, the woman ought to have a sign of authority on her head.

In the Lord, however, woman is not independent of man, nor is man independent of woman. For as woman came from man, so also man is born of woman. But everything comes from God. Judge for yourselves: Is it proper for a woman to pray to God with her head uncovered? Does not the very nature of things teach you that if a man has long hair, it is a disgrace to him, but that if a woman has long hair, it is her glory? For long hair is given to her as a covering. If anyone wants to be contentious about this, we have no other practice—nor do the churches of God.

i believe this is the passage you were looking for

personally i think the 10 commandments are excellent

I prefer buddhist faith. It is more liberal and it is atheist too!

I just choose to believe

I personaly, don't balieve in any god.I must mention though, i do not descriminate the people who do, i instead respect there views,because, they did not grow up in the same circumstances as me.Also when iw as younger iw as forced to go to church, and i found it rediculos the amount of things that wherea sin to do.Also the bible condritict it's self alot, i try to avoid touble standards as much as possible.

This is exactly the kind of thing I'm talking about.

And wasn't Jesus supposed to have long hair?

totaly agree

The 10 commandments are all basic moral rules written in a time were most of a country was lawless, now its a different time and they need to be re-writhing or abandon totally

umm I dont like buddisim the morals of islam are the best but unfortunytly men hhow came after muhammed changed the koran a bit and added parts.

I think everyone should read the bible, especially if you dont like christianity. You should be well versed with that you hate. I also like buddhism because of its liberal views, and it also promises nothing and asks nothing of you in return. The 10 commandments are in almost every religion. christianity stole them from judaism who stole them from Zoroastrianism etc..

isnce bible means books in greek I can't see what's wrong with that

First we don't know whether Jesus had long hair. We just presume it.

Paul was ever the chauvinist one, thats why we interpret the bible and don't take it word per word.

Also we didn't steal from Judaism. If you like so Christianity is a sect of judaism, which was around before Zoroaster I think.

Liberalism in Buddhism is the same as in every reiligion, varying per sect.
And the ten commandments are timeless and still as true as they were on mount Sinai.

Umm Zoroastrianism is the FIRST monotheistic religion. And it also says in Leviticus that men should not cut their hair, so was Jesus sinning then?

Couldn't resist

Well I'm pretty sure that the jews were around before.

First Jesus can't sin, that's the great advantage of being God.
Second I repeat we don't know how long his hair was.

@Cyprian I don't get it. explain please.
