again, you're taking the literalist view. I don't subscribe to the idea that every word of the bible was straight from God's mouth to someone's hand - oblique Dec 9, 09:06 1
- I don't believe I'm being literalist, but I do appreciate that you are engaging those who question The Book. - musubi Dec 9, 09:11
Here's how it seems to me: It is when it's convenient to say it is. It's not when it's convenient to say it's not. -- nm - mara Dec 9, 09:05 4
- And when I asked, if this is the word of God, why were parts excised and others added? - Will Hunting Dec 9, 09:06 3
  - Islam had it right. They won't even let translations be referred to as the Koran. -- nm - znufrii Dec 9, 09:09 2
    - Nah, imo, Islam has it wrong too, but at least they have a logical consistancy to their Book. (nm) - musubi Dec 9, 09:13 1
      - that's more what I meant. -- nm - znufrii Dec 9, 09:22
