The Bible is a great novel. It contains all the things a great novel needs. Good guys,
Bad Guys, Kings, Queens, Nobility, Common folks, Rich People, Poor People, Evil People, Magic, Mystery and Fantasy.
But there is one thing that is seriously lacking in the bible, The Truth! (Not to mention reality!)
I good percentage of the stories in the Bible came from Pagan writings and the writings of other cultures. There are very few, if any, original stories in it, and some of those stories are real whoppers!
Whopper #1 The Great Flood of Noah. It's a good story, but that flood didn't happen. Science has proven this several times over. Enough rain to cover Mount Everest at 29,000 feet? Give me a break!
Whopper #2 Jonah and the "Big Fish". According to that story this fisherman, Jonah, was swallowed by a "Big Fish" (It doesn't say Whale) and lived in it's stomach for three days. First question: Where did he get his fresh air supply from? No fish, or whale that I know of comes with a fresh air generator. Question Two: Why wasn't he turned into "Big Fish Poop" within 24 hours?
Whopper #3 Joshua and the Battle of Jericho. According to this story Josh and his Army had to take Jericho, but to their dismay they found it was walled. Josh told his army to ride around Jericho and blow the horns of rams and the "walls would come tumbling down". According to the story...that's what happened. Then perhaps someone could tell me why Archaeologists have been looking around that city for years trying to find evidence of a wall and they have found nothing of the sort.
Is the Bible telling lies here?

The original Adam & Eve in their Neanderthal form. The biblical story about Adam & Eve is a fairytale.

I've said it before and I'll say it again!
The bible makes lousy TP.
First, the pages are too slippery
Second, you can't clean with something that's
already saturated with what it is you're trying to clean.

Can you imagine those actors in the Ape Make up (which, I understand is rubber) working out in the hot sun, or under hot lights inside? I'll bet they were glad when the days shoot ended!

Well it can't be any worse than French TP. That's like wiping your backside with waxed paper.

Where did Cain get his wife? If Noah lived to be 900 yrs old, who stuck around to find out? The bible was written 500 yrs after JC died, what?
I didn't believe this crap even at 10 I wasn't fooled. Yes the bible is just filled with stories. And it was written by man, so that doesn't say much.

Did you folks know that December 25th was not accepted by the Christians as the alleged birth of the alleged Christ until the 4th century......400 years after the fact?

Yes. They picked Dec 25th because of the winter solsice (sp?) and I know they at least stole the tree thing from the Pagens. Google it, it will tell you alot. If only the 'christians' knew all this...well, they probably still wouldn't believe it.

Actually Winter Solstice is not December 25. It verys. It is the longest night of the year. This year, 2011, it will be December 22nd.

I know the date varies, I mean because it's around that time. Easter is also always around the spring equonox also.

The one thing about the Bible that I don't understand is....The religious folks say the Bible is "the word of God" How can that be? God didn't write it, nor did he dictate the words to the ones that did write it.
The "word of God"....I don't think so!

They repeat whatever they were told...they are parrots.
