The Bible is a mixture of historical facts and myths. Christianity was allowed to flourish because it was a useful tool used by the hierarchy in society to control the masses. other religions at the time and since have always preached equality, sharing the worlds resources and looking after mother earth, these religions have always been ridiculed and stamped out, because they contradicted greed & the explotation of everything that the bible says God created.

Back then, when the Bible was being constructed by the Romans, only 10% of its population could read or write. Hired scribes (who the majority were Pagan) had to publish these books over and over and over again. Then as their 'religion' went abroad, they had to be rescribed and translated for the next sect and the next over and over again. Given the amount of human err, purposely editing for others agendas, and translation conflicts...the Bible can't be valid.

The validity is found in the consistency, and flawless flow from each messenger, or writer. Contradictions are only apparent, and usually unstudied. To have over sixty writers each write the same things, over a period of six thousand years, and all of them correct...would validate the information.

The hidden codes in the bible that spell out people's names and modern day events. The prophecies come true also.

The fact that the Bible was written over thousands of years by many different men, and yet remains consistant and historically and scientifically accurate, as verifiable by non-religious documents and ancient court records, only enhances its reliability. Factor in fulfilled prophecies, and scientific accuracies in the Bible of things not yet known to mankind, the overwhelming evidence of Noah's flood, as well as the validity of the Gospels as truth. Refer to links, and please at least read them before you go calling them names...

i once read an interesting article dividing the 4 sources of the modern book of genesis, based on the political implications and style of writing found within it.
