In my opinion, the bible is best ignored. There may be some true things in there, but how would you identify them? My guess is there are very few, anyway.

You would think a rational intelligent person would totally ignore all the bible bullshit...but fear is a terrific motivator for the ignorant..

Whenever I hear someone say the Bible is the literal, inerrant word of God, I can't help but wonder why there are so many different translations and interpretations of scripture, even among fundamentalists. It seems unlikely that a perfect book would have so many manuscripts with so many discrepancies, from which so many translations were produced, and even when working from the same translation the Bible scholars can't agree on exactly what various passages mean or what it's telling people in terms of how to live their lives.

its a waste of wood

It is a joke. No woman helped write it.

The Bible is not a fairy tale, its an anthology of fairy tales...

It is a collection of second and third hand stories.

Back when written books were few and far between, there was oral history. Then finally, somebody writes down this oral history, replete with all the expected mythology that gets built up.

It's just poorly-written fiction. It's plagiarized and cannibalized every ancient text that came before it. There is nothing remotely credible about it.

Greatest piece of fiction ever written-Old Testament.
