Why are so many American people bible worshipers?

Question

It does not matter you tell me the bible is the word of God becasue the bible said so.

There are many other "holy" texts that say the same thing, and doing a research of how the bible was compiled it is quite obvious it was the word of humans with a political interest.

Before you start insulting and say I am a Muslim, I loath Islam, so save those comments.

Answer 1

America was 1st settled by religious fanatics that wanted the freedom to practice their faith. A large portion of them were kicked out of Europe. They bred and were joined by other adventurers and malcontents.

They killed off most of the natives and stole the land from the rest claiming God wanted them to have this new world.

I get more cynical the more history I read. I am ashamed for the selfishness of humanity.

Answer 2

Answer 3

Answer 4

Troll?

Answer 5

Because the U.S. is largely an ignorant and deluded society.

Answer 6

I don't worship The Bible, I worship God

Answer 7

Hello. I hope my answer makes sense and somehow gives you a different insight on the matter. I, myself, am not a Bible worshipper. I am a Christian; which to me, is a follower of Christ. The Bible is what I like to refer to as B-basic I-instructions B-before L-leaving E-earth. It keeps me grounded, sane, gives me wisdom, and peace, but most of all a love that fills that void inside of us all. I could go on and on but I'd really like to just share a link and hope you follow it. It's a really interesting article about a man who went on a search to disprove God's existence. It's pretty cool. But it's up to you, of course. And no matter the religion, do you know Jesus? That's the real question and answer.:)

I don't think you're muslim, I think your angry at God about something and instead of just getting it out and dealt with you come to yahoo to incessantly whine about it.

Political interest, now your just free falling into the land of absurd..

Oh, you're a snooty psuedo intellectual who fancies himself the clever d**k by putting others down for what they believe...You've been here long enough to know you aren't unique or special in that sense..Get over yourself already.

Answer 9

I just wish that said Americans actually followed the Bible they worship, btw- people do not actually worship the Bible itself (look up word worship in dictionary), they allegedly worship God and God's word which was recorded into what is now The Bible and a chopped up version at that, the King James version, which was a pick and choose of scripture. It was a lawless, chaotic time and rules of even simple hygiene were needed. The real sin is that people claim to be Christians, yet behave like luciferians. To do your own thing and have money and be filled with pride are all the things ex angel Lucifer did and he got in big trouble. Like the idiot KKK, an embaressment to us white people! They claim to be Christian ? DUH they are sooo not. They are the opposite, yet that is the error many so- called Christians make. They might actually read it and see Christ was not white! geez- sorry off topic.   BTW Americans are many religions and the Bible itself more popular in other places, so why not ask about why Spaniards or Poles are Bible readers?  

Answer 10

I dont know.. it truly boggles the mind.. there is a lot wrong with america, religion convienently fuels the fire...

christians are so deluded and brainwashed they cant see it.

Answer 11

This American is a follower of Christ the Lord, I DO NOT worship the Bible. It is a point of reference for us. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Answer 12

If you were a Muslim, you would be an odd Muslim.

One who worships a bible, is a bible worshipper, and hence an idolator.

God alone deserves to be worshipped.

No One else!!  Not even the messenger of God!!!

Answer 13

because they can my friend, because they can

Answer 14

People have trouble having real faith in something they can't see, so they turn to the bible because it is tangible. And since it is something they can hold on to they do no matter what their common sense may otherwise tell them. It will be a great day if people ever start to worship God more than they do the bible, Jesus or the church.

Answer 15

Because most Americans are sheep.

Answer 16

Brainwashing since birth. However, the percentage of bible thumpers is diminishing rapidly with education, and less people being gullible. (At last!) Luckily, each generation is wiser and more educated.

Answer 17

Because they where brainwashed since the beginning this nation formed...

Answer 18

We dont worship the bible we worship God and the bible was written by man inspired by God.God new what he was doing.It doesnt matter what religion you are my friend the is only one God.
