Nope.
There are different versions of the bible that I do not know which one is the best.
The Bible has been edited from the gospel by humans.

no i believe some of what is in the bible but i think other stuff is made up so you do what religious people want you to do just follow what sounds reasonable and not what is absolutely ridiculous

No. First of all, the bible was translated to what we have now...things can get lost or inadvertantly omitted in translation.
Secondly, there's no way of knowing that those who did the translating didn't throw in a few things here and there to encourage and/or scare people to behave in a certain manner. (Just as an example, if Jerry Falwell had been translating the Bible, I wouldn't put it past him to throw it in there for good measure that the Teletubbies were satanic.)
Also, the Bible contradicts itself so often that it's hard to believe everything within it.

I am confused by some of the things in the Bible, but I believe it is the Word of the Lord and therefore, the truth. Just because I don't always understand it or interpret it correctly, doesn't mean it's not the truth. It just means I'm confused.

Yes. I believe in absolute truth. I believe God is the author of the Bible and Jesus Christ is the Savior.
The Bible was written by 40 people, over 1600 years in different languages, different continents - yet it gels together as if from one divine author.
I believe and trust!

Well, where do you draw the line on truth vs fiction? All of the people, places, times..etc. are real. So where does it stop being fact? Are all the witnesses to all these events lying? Are just the 'miracles' made up? It seems like an all or nothing deal. You can't pick and choose.

absolutely not.
man wrote it.
if a man wrote a big book of obvious morals on how to live and a bunch of stories on how the world came to be today, saying it was inspired by God, then we would think he was insane!!
The bible was written thousands of years after jesus. How can those stories passed down from thousands of years be completely accurate anyway?
and i dont even wanna hear a scripture about it.
so yeah, i dont.

Yes I believe it, but I have some questions that needs answer i.e whether noah flood affected entire earth, whether rainbow never appeared before the flood..etc...I guessed we can ask directly to God when we die.
