IF the Bible had been written by man alone and wasn't the word of God....
The Old Testament would have promoted sex.
The New Testament would have been about the birth of beer
and Revelations about women (in particular, the wife).
Now that I've ignited a flame of discontent with some of you, let me explain. A lot of people like to say that the Bible was only written by man. But if that were true WHY in bloody hell doesn't it incorporate some of the basic wants of man? I don't think I'm terribly off to assume that sex is one of the first thought priorities of any man. If, as some claim, there was no God and all of these ancient writings just written by men, then what is there to accomplish by limiting the very things that most men desire?
And I'm not assigning each area because I believe any of it, but if you think about it why would man create something that doesn't have his wants listed first?
And if you mention power or control, be specific in your response.
