Well, now, hold on. I didn't say there was only one way to interpret the Bible, I said there are many variations of both right and wrong was to interpret it. The Bible is fallible, it's the uninspired translation of the inspired word. It isn't meant to be applied to us directly. It's an example for us of the past.

It isn't a riddle. It's harmonious throughout and the subject is simple. The Bible is about the vindication of Jehovah God's name through the ransom sacrifice of Christ Jesus. You can make anything to fit what people want, or fear but that doesn't negate the thing being abused or neglected, it just demonstrates that abuse or neglect.
It's written by men and rewritten by men and rewritten again and again. If there was every any inspiration on some higher level it was lost long ago.
