As far as I know, JJR.O.B. and I are the only smashers on here that play Bible Bowl as well, so if you're on here and you're a Bible Bowler, this is where you can discuss all things Bible Bowl and Smash

Seems kinda goofy to me.

I'm a Jesus-follower, but I don't really like Jesus-followers being characterized by stuff like this.

It just feels so bible-camp, home-school, poor social-skill, no style, no personality...

I did something like this in middle school, except it wasn't so...Jesus-y. I can't say with any certainty at all that it belongs in the Light House, seeing as it's not a video game and all.

Seems like a ******** waste of time to be quizzed on a doctored history. Seriously, it's like starting a Harry Potter Bowl.

Uh, dunno if this belongs here. I'd say Proom. Moved!

So am I, and I agree with you. Was never into these whole group-learning things.

LOL I was like

"The Hell is bible Bowl?"
Then when i saw it i was
"Holy Crap....I used to do that in 4th grade...."
Well it was under a different name, Roman Catholic Challenge RCC. I was the Unofficial Leader so to say.
70% of the questions asked where answered by me. you need a quick finger and a sharp mind to pass it. Looking back i think now i know where i got my Video game Trigger Finger.

I don't do that any more, well mostly because Religion classin highschool becomes a Social status debate, and i usually start it :ohwell:

I believe the Bible Bowl is something in the Bible Belt. Only they would come up with something like this.

It's the fact that it's indoctrinating kids to learn trivia from the bible as opposed to historical trivia, which is actually relevant and useful.

I have a friend who was home schooled by his father who's a pastor. ALL his subjects from History to Science had a Christian leaning. Now, he can't accept that the United States was founded by humanist secularists and deists who believed in a distant god, or that evolution exists. It's a scary, scary thing.

Looking back I don't know why I spent 5 hours studying each night for it. It was fun while it lasted but then some thing in my brain Snapped in 7th grade . Ohh well the only GOOD thing I really got out of it was a quick reflexes and a game trigger finger, which coincidentally is the main thing for Wii FPS. Even the buzzer Button had the same placement as the A button on the Wiimote(A button Iron sights lulz).

But for us it was School Rivalry in a form. We just didn't do just the Bible so i guess the RCC was a different form that didn't make us study the bible. We did some history stuff as well, like who was the first Roman Catholic President? Or what year did Pope John Paul II become Pope, or what the heck does INRI(or in English letters JNKJ) stand for.

I agree with CK.

A history bowl would be much more beneficial, and something I'd actually enjoy doing, instead of sitting in the audience laughing, I'm sorry, but that's what I'd be doing.

In my point of view, I see that anything that has to do with God(that is POSITIVE), especially Bible Bible Bowl, is more beneficial than anything else in the world.
And CK, I read your thread about why you don't believe in God anymore, and I must say it's a sad story. But, why do you seem to hate Chrisitanity now?

Too be honest thinking evolution is a lie needs to look up the facts.

And yea even though i used to do some thing Similar(Roman Catholic Challenge) i would be in the audience laughing. mostly because the RCC had some Historic things you had to know.

The bible contains the only totally accurate history!

Your being serious right? it isn't true documented on the spot history. But im not going to go any more deeper then that, don't want to start a discussion in the Pool Room.

Okay now thats 3 in a row. Where are the Dinosaurs in the bible? The creation story is merely a representation of Original Sin.

Little do most people know and are taught that evolution is a lie. tell me some evidence that it is true and I will test it. :lick:

d snyde, stop triple and double posting. And I said no to a religious debate. Apply for the debate hall if you want to do that.

Fine, let's not listen to the moderator. Sorry, GI Josh. Biblical talk is too risky for online discussion. :(
