Nice avoidance of the question.
In your opinion or beliefs, does the Bible contain ANY truths?
If so, how do YOU discern the difference between the truths and the 'shit'?
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.
