Question

Hi Filya,

i should have opened the can of worms before my bag of weed as I meant to post this in R&S lol

Answer 1

what is more imp. it tells correct thing who cares even if someone is not sure abt the author of the book which everyone likes.

Answer 2

It is collection of shorter writings. It has some historical significance, and some of the suggestions in it are very wise.

Answer 3

the Bible is writtin by people who lived 1000 years ago - i think a few lies or over reaction have been added in to it.

Answer 4

Well the first part of the bible was actually written 50 years after Jesus' death. And it was written by people who weren't actually there!

So you can form your own conclusions, how "oh wow this water tastes like wine" turned into "he turned water into wine"

Answer 5

well,  in my opinion, it is impossible to argue Jesus's most important teaching,  "to love one an another"

Answer 6

Whatever you stupid religious nuts believe, its all fake. The Bible was never written by 'God' or Jesus, or any of your other fary tale fantasy characters.

God nor Jesus do not exist. Live with it.

Of course, this is the correct definition of Christianity.



The belief of some cosmic Jewish zombie can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him that you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree.

Makes perfect sense.

Answer 7

I believe it is the authoritative Word of God and written by the chosen people of the time can you prove it was not.

You have a choice ,no one is forcing you to believe what is written in it, God invites you to follow Him but He has given you free will.

Faith is believing what you cannot prove every day you follow signs on a motorway, you have a choice to ignore them, but obviously it is in your best interest to follow the signs they are there for your safety, the Bible is the same ignore at your peril but it is your choice.Read the Bible then make up your mind.

Answer 8

I question much if not all of the New Testament.

Answer 9

It was written by spin doctors. I believe Jesus was an inspirational man but not a Messiah, he was painted as something more than he was by his followers.

Answer 10

I believe it is a clever book that can be used in anyway the reader would like it to be

Answer 11

In the 3rd Century, the Vatican and scholars, tried to put together the writing of the prophets and early scholars.  The attempted to weed out the fanatical and the rantings.  I believe they did a very good job.

As a Christian, I use the Bible as a guide, not as a literal text, but something to show me the right way.

Answer 12

Answer 20

The only Gospel that was written by anyone around at the time is the Gospel of St Thomas, and that's not included. So much of it it is according to St Paul's input, it should be Christianity according to St Paul and the Councils of Nicaea.

Answer 21

No we have none proof for that however some things written in Bible are also writen Koran and others souch book So if the Bible was a lie they had a h**l of organisation !

Now look at it from modern view some things that are written do in fact tell us about some things the ancients had no right know I think the Biggest LIE  of the Bible lies in the translaitors interpretations I guess the original version translaited a new would show us that the Bible has some diffrent thingsTranslaitors did not realise read the Bible through its hard however theres something we negleckd  its history of heaven and if we could understand the symbols then we could have some proofs The Bible contains all dramatic forms (including Science Fiction) and it is a fundation of our culture I guess the Book is real !

Answer 22

I believe nothing, other than, what I have been led to believe.

Answer 23

What is your criteria?

Answer 24

The Bible is a Wiki.

It has been written and rewritten by thousands of people over the centuries that any original spiritual holiness must have been purged by history and humanity into histories dustbin.

This is what I believe.
