text: i believe that people who live their lives by following the bible literally are nuts.  do you agree/disagree? really, these people base their lives on a document made by people way after the fact during a time 2000 years ago when things were very different.  i can understand living your life as a good person etc.  but why follow the bible literally?  just one example:  bible mentions something about not sleeping with other men when you are a man, and now christianity seems to hate gays.    just an example.  weight in here!  get your 2 cents in from both sides, but please be tolerant.  i may disagree with biblical literalists, but i believe they are welcome to their point of view and way of life.  peace all. i agree.  the book has been changed, there is proof of that.  so why would you follow something and believe whole-heartily hat it is the word of god when it's been changed?  i don't get this!  not only that there is no empirical evidence that proves that book is what it says it is!  how you can take this literally i will never understand!
