The bible is like a cheap sci-fi movie.

The bible is like a cheap sci-fi movie.

Were the population of an entire planet is represented by just one or two people. Like Adam and Eve, they were just the two that got cast for the roles. There would have had to be more than just two.

Have fun with this one, but please be nice.

ohhhh be nice shaky??? fine, we'll try to be.

LOL, the bible is OK as a sci-fi movie, but man oh man, wait till you see the Ramayana and the Bhagawat-Gita( hindu texts). They got floating rocks, space shaips, nukes, giants, 10 headed monsters that can regenerate, heroes with heat seeking arrows, women with steel fingers..............woohooo its all there.

NOW WAIT ONE minute before anyone goes pointing fingers.
I am hindu, very very very proud of my religion, absolutely adore those two books i mentioned. But that idea of it in a Fantasitcal movie has been swimming in my head for a while now.

LOL , you should have seen the day i drew comparisons to Lord of te RIngs to the Ramayan.

Hail Buddhism

I know, I've read parts of the text. It would make a really good sci-fi epic. 😎

yeah it would. i'm always dissappointed with those religious epc movies they show from india. They could kick some serious butt with the proper CG. hehehehe

I don't see how can anyone be nice when you put the criticism of "cheap" in the title. Basically you're belittle the book by putting that word there. Had you left it as "The Bible is like a sci-fi movie" (Which btw- It makes more sense to call it a book) Would be a bit more fair. But no biggie 😉

However, I'll go along with the joke...If all it takes to create a human being is a mother and father...then what more can you do with a male and female? I think that's the best way to start telling a story of generations by begining with the original mom and dad. Doesn't look cheap to me.

Now if you want to jump to cheap sci-fi you could go with the The Noble Eightfold Path

Right Understanding
Right Thought
Right Speech
Right Action
Right Livelihood
Right Effort
Right Mindfulness
Right Concentration

Too much of the Right...not enought of the Left. 😛

The word cheap was not meant to denigrate the bible, it was meant to describe a type of sci-fi movie. You could replace the word with "paper back" or "B" or "low budget".

My point is, I think that there are some places in the bible were one or two people are meant to represent a large number of people, or all the people.

There is some historical information. We know there was a man named Pontius Pilot, and geography. 😄

But in many movies that are fiction, there is historical information, but they are still fiction.

Honestly, I've never seen a movie about Adam and Eve. I think it would be a slow movie in the garden and all. The climax part would be that snake 😱

after that...it would go down hill.. 😂

I won't say much relevant to the Topic...since I don't see it's relevance to...well...anything....but, if at all, The Bible wouldn't be considered a Science Fiction book but a Fantasy one...big difference. Just making sure you know.

The point is comparison, it's a big book, I didn't have room in the title for all the possibilities. 😄

It would sell big in the XXX category, considering the fact that they had to make lots of babies really fast. 😆

Yeah....She would always be with child....But I want to see the snake scene....OH....a better story would be the beast and Antichrist....Whoaa...what they could do with that... 😱

It's nice to see we have our Antichrist back... 😎

Think of it...If there was a LITERAL movie version of the Book of Revelations... 😂

We'd have this huge angel standing with one foot on the land and one on the sea! We'd have a dragon with 7 HEADS!!! 10 horns on it with one horn speaking... 😂 ......We'd have these angels dumping veils of things on earth.....LOL....And someone eating a book...Whoooo Wow.!!

Wouldn't it be like a stoner movie....Like Pink Floyd????...LOL

OMG!!! i can think of loads of books just like the bible eg:Harry Potter, HP is a load of fiction with dumbledore being the wise one ,but are ppl in millions of years gonna be worshiping Harry .....nope it was just fortunate that ppl beleived the bible how lucky was that then
