Mike, that's in English - do you think that when it was written they used
English? No, it was translated, and it was translated numerous times and
almost every time meaning was lost or converted to fit the current
language/times or even manipulated to fit the days agenda. The Bible is a
collection of fables. Faith is what we have, belief of what we know is right
based on our faith, not interpretations covering thousands of years.

How hard is this to interpret?...
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be
not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor
effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners,
shall inherit the kingdom of God. I Corinthians 6
You don't have to be perfect to figure out what that means.
