The Wizard of Oz is an allegorical tale, I guess we should be worshipping Dorothy Gale. Or are you saying that the land of Oz is an actual place?
You go right ahead, personally I'm going to stick with the almost three and a half billion other Abrahamic Monotheists and more specifically the almost two billion other Christians.

I'll see that and raise you this from same;
"To accomplish great things, we must not only act but also dream, not only plan but also believe."
Quite obvious that he meant that in order to do things, one must believe they can be done. Definitely not the same as believing in some magical guy in the sky.
Humour + right winger = FAIL
One may substitute 'sarcasm', 'common sense', or 'fact', for 'humour'.
Yes, I failed by directing it toward someone too dim to get it. And it wasn't a joke, just a comment.
Yeah, what a scream those to your right aren't conservative, they are Nazis, especially the singled out commentator.
Ardie, you are rapidly becoming the biggest steaming pile of FAIL on this board.
Of course, I should know better than to wrestle with a pig, I just get dirty and the pig enjoys it.
It demonstrates ignorance and lack of understanding. And, gross disrespect for the victims of the Nazis. He doesn't understand that though, since that would require political sophistication and a cultured sense of humour.
Oh, I love how the righties get their shorts all in a twist over satire, which none of them understand. And I have "gross disrespect for the victims of the Nazis"? Both of my parents took on the nazis with their service in the RAF. I spent 15 years in the infantry. I have served alongside men and women who fought the bastards. Men who still carried the physical and emotional scars from places like Dieppe, Normandy, Italy, Singapore, Hong Kong, and North Africa. Men who helped liberate concentration camps. I can tell you from experience that many of them still had a sense of humour, and laughed at their enemy. I have friends whose parents were in concentration camps, and I have spent many hours socializing with them. You kids, you think you can read a history book and watch the History Channel, and become experts on how people were and how they thought. Live alongside such people, drink with them, share a slit trench with them, fight alongside them in a barroom brawl.
Now, let's get back to the original thread, the veracity of the bible. Nothing, absolutely sweet fuck all, of what you have said, has any bearing on whether it's true. Allegory is not fact, and a collection of bronze-age stories is not truth unless you can find evidence for all of it.
So far you have nothing more than a few archeological hits, but you follow the Erich von Däniken school of history, which allows you to construct a massive confabulation around some old walls.
I ain't falling for it.
The americans would waste little time to send a drone over to kill that socialist SOB that healed poor people for nuthin.
