Jan,
I thought this discussion board was broadly Christian so I was quite taken aback by what you said, because it was so dismissive of the Bible.
Christians don't regard the Bible as just a collection of ancient writings.
How do you react to this statement taken from the Catholic Encyclopaedia, regarding the Bible?
But Saundy - that is what the Bible is - it is a collection of scripture. It is not being dismissive of it - just understanding what it is. Some of it no doubt is inspired by God/Spirit and that would include Christs teachings of love & compassion etc. However you cannot get away from the fact that some of the content of the bible is downright evil! People were treated in a terrible way. Some parts contradict other parts. Some parts have been mistranslated. Some teachings are missing (it is an incomplete record).
