The Bible is not a source of real history. It's a collection of stories with some historical references to help mark the times discussed. “If you are the smartest person in the room, then you are in the wrong room.” — Confucius  (May 12, 2019 at 2:00 pm)georgecarlin Wrote: I am majoring in anthropology and minoring in business.

And it certainly does not make all the fantastic claims that defy science in it true. 
Can you name even one or 2 other books that had as much history in it as The King James Bible?

If you are not a sock or a troll, this is not the way to prove it. The earth was not made in 6 days. Humans do not magically pop out of dirt, women do not magically pop out of a man's rib. Babies are not born without a second set of DNA. Humans do not survive rigor mortis as the death mythology implies. The flood claimed in the bible did not happen. Josephus is not a first hand account. If you want REAL history, there are BOOKS, in libraries all over the world, and even the internet can point you to factual information outside of personal bias.
So you can't name even one book with more history and anthropological reality than the King James bible? Take out the magical stuff, is the rest of it accurate?
Why would you plow through a book and remove the BS to try to get to facts?
Go to a library or a book store and go to the history section. Bye troll - you can play with BRIAN. Have fun with that. Ask him about REPUBLICANS next. And then how he was saved from a hurricane that was already gone. “If you are the smartest person in the room, then you are in the wrong room.” — Confucius (May 12, 2019 at 2:22 pm)georgecarlin Wrote: So you can't name even one book with more history and anthropological reality than the King James bible?

There are real places and real people mentioned in it sure, but those were added in by the writers to lend a false sense of credibility after the fact. Like we can prove Trump exists, but to claim he is a successful businessman would be absurd. He is a successful con for sure, but he has over conflated himself to absurd levels. The bible is not a history book, much less a science textbook. It is a book of mythology, written in antiquity by people who wanted a hero to come back in their time. It has no modern application to understanding either history or science. |
