"God did not 'create' the bible."
If this is true, Drich, why did you jump through so many loops not more than 10 days ago to integrate the story (and that is the right word) of Genesis with current scientific theories as to the creation of the universe.
If God didn't create the Bible then whoever wrote Genesis did it off the top of their own heads. The writers were certainly not there.
Wouldn't it make much more sense - if all you really need is a synopsis of the gospel to simply write the whole of the creation story off as a simpler explanation for simpler times?
Your argument in this thread seems to be the Bible isn't an exact record because it doesn't have to be. All you need is the key message.
That's great an'all but the scope for misinterpretation of what the key message is must be huge, judging by the number of different variations of Christianity and how quick you are to disparage them.
You do seem to have a very confused take on your own beliefs sometimes, one that isn't consistent for any period of time.
