If its gods word people shouldn't have different sects of religion.Everyone would interpret words a certain way naturally. I've seen people hear take my statements out of context. Or take things I say the wrong way. It happens all the time no matter what. Then a book with parables, spiritual truths, etc, will be interpreted differently for sure. Different statements from different Angles. The important thing is to be sincere, and if a book can't clarify itself and manifest guidance and reminders and signs and proofs in a clear way after sincerity, then it's not a book from God. Different sects are going to happen because not everyone is a sincere followers of truth. The only thing I would say that aside from a book, leaders who protect the meaning of book appointed by God are necessary. That way people stick to the true interpretation of the book and are manifested it's clear signs, so that people see for themselves the true light.
Quote:2. again biblical writers gave god of the bible human emotion. If a god did write the bible pretty sure he wouldn't want to come off like a asshole.That doesn't answer the question. You know if God existed, it wouldn't be a loving God. How do you know that?
1. put yourself in gods shoes would you or would you not want people to do their own personal interpretation of your own writing. Would you or would you not get see the problems with them doing their own personal interpretation for their own goals and the justification of killing others.
3. No that god isn't all loving. truthfully however if went by the bible god only loves such a small fraction of the people earth he isn't all loving. if you go by reality and not a story book we either have no god or a god who simply doesn't care.
