Totally NOT a debate about the veracity of the gospels

[ronedee]

If true understanding requires me to turn my brain off and accept demonstrably false things as truth, then you can keep it.

If you are arguing that the Bible may contain errors, but that doesn't invalidate anything in it, by what authority do you choose which parts are in error, and which aren't? And doesn't this give anyone license to pick and choose parts of the Bible that they want to apply? Isn't this a slippery slope?

For some perhaps... But I try to listen to God. Its what is "right"...not what someone tells you is right.

So, if you do whats "right"... you know you are doing God's will. Pretty simple! eh?

I don't stumble on words in a book. Especially if men wrote them. I do discern the bible. And I believe the Gospel as "true". At least the messages of what Jesus says is "right". I don't believe a mear man could've made that up!

There are just too many truths, and ironies to throw my Bible in the fiction section of my library!

The "real" truth according to Jewish people? Mormons? Muslims? Christians?

Truth comes from reality. Religion isn't built on reality. It's built on fear and wishful thinking.

But... what is reality? Honestly
