As one who can translate the Greek, all the writers had their own style. The Greek of Mark is rough and simplistic. IOW's, the most uneducated. The writer of Hebrews was a genius. Paul is very practical. Peter is very colorful.
And that sort of fallacious circular logic does not bother you? Rhetorical question, no need to answer. Of course not, or else you wouldn't be a believer.
"The Bible is true because god says it is. Where does god say the Bible is true? In the Bible. And why do I believe the Bible? Because it says it is true in the Bible. And how do I know the Bible is true? Because it says it is 'God-breathed' in the Bible."
Maybe you should have used Puni wale as your username on this site instead of Haipule.
You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
