I don't think there is any doubt that the Bible has been manipulated throughout time. The King James version is well........ authorized by
King James.
This is why
protest*ants split from the Roman Catholics. If you think about it.This was the action of the people to separate the church from the state. POLITICS FROM RELIGION. Pilgrims came to the New World to get away from religious oppression.
That the Bible is not as originally scribed is probably an understatement. Things have been added and things have been taken away.It makes sense to me because you had, humans deciding what was relevant and what wasn't.
NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN
Ecclesiastes 1:9-14
The New Testament, added after Jesus and so on and so forth. But to say that it is all bunk is not fair. The whole book is a reference. To show us what it takes to live a life in the best way. The stories of the bible tell what happens when disobedience of simple laws effects your life.
Anyway to say that Detector's post is not true is lumping it all as a lie. All anyone can say is some of the things have not been discovered YET, because a lot of things that the Bible has recorded have been unearthed by scientists.
I actually don't find a big stretch in evolution and creationism. Science and The Bible.
