I know this quote's a few pages back, but I just have to respond to this: I don't take the book for fucking anything okay? But there are people who do, and that's why I care. I know you've got your own personal idea of the scriptures, that parts of it were faked, but not everybody agrees with you, and the opinions of those people are the only reason I give a crap about your bible at all.
And when you've got a single verse saying it's all fake, and the rest of the book saying it's absolute heavenly truth, why should I be taking your reading over anyone else's? It's all just interpretation, by people, trying to cover up for the fact that the entire book, from top to bottom, is shoddily written, by a ton of different authors from a more ignorant time without any kind of collaboration, passing it all off as real to a more credulous populace. You are advocating for an interpretation of an interpretation of a translation of a fourth and fifth hand (at least!) account of something that nobody can provide proof for in the first place.
It's literally all cherrypicking, and I'll have no part in it.
