The bible HAS been edited through time. I don't care what the fundy's thnk, it's not in any kind of original form. Chapters removed & added, edits, translations, etc...
The "church" Jesus told Peter to found, is corrupt and evil. They hide pedophiles from the law, spread lies about condom use, and place men above women, closer to God. Not only that, but they convene every few hundred years to re-decide what they should preach.
Wouldn't god be more direct, and not associate our salvation with such loose and corrupt institutions and the church and the bible?

He wouldn't!
The Bible is supposedly God's perfect Word. It contains instructions to humankind for avoiding the eternal fires of hell. How wonderful and kind of this God to provide us with this means of overcoming the problems for which he is ultimately responsible! The all-powerful God could have, by a mere act of will, eliminated all of the problems we humans must endure, but instead, in his infinite wisdom, he has opted to offer this indecipherable amalgam of books which is the Bible as a means for avoiding the hell which he has prepared for us. The perfect God has decided to reveal his wishes in this imperfect work, written in the imperfect language of imperfect man, translated, copied, interpreted, voted on, and related by imperfect man. No two men will ever agree what this perfect word of God is supposed to mean, since much of it is either self- contradictory, or obscured by enigmatic symbols. And yet the perfect God expects us imperfect humans to understand this paradoxical riddle using the imperfect minds with which he has equipped us. Surely the all-wise and all-powerful God would have known that it would have been better to reveal his perfect will directly to each of us, rather than to allow it to be debased and perverted by the imperfect language and botched interpretations of man.

Peter isnt it Paul who wrote the bible (new testament) any how ever, which ever man it was saw a vision, not Jesus. It was a jinn I am sure not the great Prophet Jesus (yes thats right prophet, not God) And the bible is full of silly fables and stories. No one should take the bible seriously, my catholic friend was told this by someone at her church. She was shocked, I however was not. Anyhow ...

No. do you already know that God made a sparkling set for Moses to contemporary to the individuals? This seems to point to the certainty that He meant precisely what He wrote interior the 1st ones. Exodus 34 the recent Stone pills a million The LORD stated to Moses, "Chisel out 2 stone pills like the 1st ones, and that i will write on them the words that have been on the 1st pills, which you broke.

This is like asking: "Why are hatmakers anti-semetic - they don't leave room for Jew's horns"
Your assumptions are entirely biased and wrong.
And once again all of Christendom is being made to answer for the Catholic Church.. uggggh!

Lets see how many people give you actual answers with logic and reason instead of a lot of words with no meaning to them. I agree with you, though, hon - it's one big flask of mud - all filthy and congealed and messed up and hazzardous to partake of, so why do people keep drinking from it? It just does not compute for me.

This isn't even a serious accusation.
Your thought process is pretty skewed.
I could say your family should be committed just because of you. Is that right?
According to your thinking, yes.

Why don't you just ask yourself to save yourself because you are pretty confidant you know everything and probably you even think you are God.

God is very far away, he can't see all of us here. This thing is here to make you rethink your ancient values, seek the truth, and studying.
