So, out of mild curiosity, explain what the Bible is to you?
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.

Show me in the Bible where that's a requirement? Show me outside the Bible where that's a requirement.
You can't, and you know it...

Is there another collection of Christian scriptures? If so, I've never heard of it.

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'?

Still in denial, I see.
To help you out of denial:
1. You deny the Bible is the Word of God
2. You make up your own religion as you go along.
Dumb ass phony Christian!

1. What does that have to do with being a follower of Christ's teachings?
2. Every point I make is from the Bible, where is yours from?
Still haven't proven anything...
