Thomas I have edited my previous post, I did it on my phone and some of the text didn't come through...
In response:
I wasn't saying you aren't willing to present evidence for your claims, I am saying that so far you have not. You are welcome to, but the point is that nobody needs to disprove your claims to disbelieve them, rather they should not believe them in the first place until you can demonstrate that they are true. By all means, do so.
As to taking out the 'bad parts' it depends on your definition of bad, we may not agree on which passages are bad and which are not. I don't think the Bible has much good in it and you would have to cut out whole chunks and chapters to get to something morally acceptable, but then that negates the whole religion. ]
But all of this is irrelevant until you actually present some evidence to entertain the idea that the Bible was tampered with and that all the bad bits were added. On face value it sounds crazy, but go ahead, prove it.
