The Bible mini-series on the History Channel
March 4, 2013 at 12:25 am
I just watched the mini series with my wife and it spurred alot of questions with her, at the end of which she said that unless you are familiar with the Bible, you'd be completely lost.

So, i thought If any of you saw it or has any questions in general about Genesis or Exodus (Maybe one we haven't already done to death) I'd like to be able to help you find your answer.

I don't think any of us here take the history channel seriously anymore.

I couldn't be bothered. 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' airs at the same time on The Learning Channel.

Grimm's Fairy Tales suffers from the same problem.

History Channel also pushes Ancient Aliens. According to those douchebags god was an alien.

Seriously, Drippy. Anyone who takes that shit seriously cannot be taken seriously.

Throwing the baby out with the bath water?

So by the collective logic displayed here, the History Channel and all it has reported is is no longer crediable because of one series it aired? Meaning Everything on The Revolutionary War, forward.. All of the shows dedicated to expantion of the US, and anything and everything else it has done or ever will do based on recorded history is garbage because of one series???

I don't know about you all but in my mind I have this tool I use to filter out the bad from the good. I call it discernment. The way it works is I do not close my mind off to anything until I have heard and thought on what it is all about. I do not pre judge something, just because it is packaged a certain way.. Or Rather I do not judge an e-book by it's cover art. This allows me perspective that the closed minded will never have.
