Is the bible the best book ever wrote in human kind history??????

[Rastov]

There is too much about the Bible to talk about in a FC forum. But the people who diss the Bible the most know the least about it.

And the people who praise it the most, know even less.

None of the Bible is boring if you are reading it with Faith and Belief, if you don't believe you will just read the words, and try to understand, but it will be a bunch of mumbo jumbo, that makes no sense, because it takes faith to understand to believe. Only the Holy Spirit can interpret the meaning. My Bible Studies are never boring, I think boring is hardly a word for how we got here, why we are here, and how we have eternal life, not to mention the battles of evil, the Mercy and Grace of God, there is more action and history than any movie ever made, and the Bible is pure truth.

  No...some people believe each word...others not. It is full of controversial stories. The only part that makes sense is the "ten commandments" and any other good commandments you may find.

Beyond the truth...saddening, honestly.

There all kinds of lessons you canuse on life now days

Examples please.

All the main messages in the Bible were around before the Bible was written down.  Furthermore, a number of the "lessons" in the Bible are some of the most horrible "lessons" you can expose a child to, or anyone for that matter.  The book is full of countless acts of murder, prejudice, and hate (a number of these coming from the main character himself).

Proverbs have some pretty good lessons and so does the New Testament if you read what Jesus says. What would Jesus do is a pretty good thing to use on a daily

Well sure.  You can cherry pick almost anything and make it seem positive.  One thing is certain, I would never hand my child a Quran or Bible and tell them to live by the morals within it.

A lot of what you guys refer to as the bible is the Old Testament.  The OT is the history book part. Yeah it can be boring at times, with some books dedicated to all the crazy stuff you had to and had not to do back in those times.  However, it still had some crazy sweet stories and interesting parts. Most of the life lessons that have anything whatsoever to do with current times are in the New Testament. There is too much about the Bible to talk about in a FC forum. But the people who diss the Bible the most know the least about it.

And yet people consistently cite the Bible in their stance on, for example, homosexuality being immoral and against "God's law."  Yet there's really no mention of it in the NT...in fact, I can't think of a single specific instance of homosexuality being condemned in the NT.  Or the Ten Commandments, which people are clearly still promoting -- Old Testament.  Countless more examples....plain nonsense to pretend Christianity teaches the OT as history and doesn't try to apply it to the world today.

I once read a thread on Something Awful where people were asking why individuals become atheists. One of the posts read "Because I read the bible!".

I don't believe the bible is "the best book ever wrote in human kind history" because much of it is so distraught (exodus), wordy (numbers), fantasy-oriented (genesis,matthew,mark,luke,john,etc.), and illogical (genesis,numbers). People praise it saying it's scientific and all of the rules still apply to todays world, but they don't. As liljp said, Homosexuality is a great example.

No I don't think it is the best book ever written, but I do however think it's the greatest lie ever told.  No offense.

YES IF YOU BELIEVE IN GOD. IT HAS BEEN AROUND FOR CENTURIES AND GIVES YOU LESSONS ON HOW TO LIVE LIFE.

[sweatytree]

Interesting topic...and I would have to agree with it...Yes it is...

[liteiceman]

It is not the best but it is one of the most read it

[Ringpop313]

no it is a terrible book. What you are reading today isn't even the real version. It has been changed and revised so many times throughout history we don't even know what we are reading anymore.

YES IF YOU BELIEVE IN GOD. IT HAS BEEN AROUND FOR CENTURIES AND GIVES YOU LESSONS ON HOW TO LIVE LIFE.

It's been around for centuries at the expense of millions of people being slaughtered.  If you live your life by the morality laid out in the Bible (and you don't..nobody does), you'd be in jail right now.
