you're playing that this guy may be striking in most appropriate you to the in consumer-friendly words one real God. you would possibly want to do more effective useful in case you got here upon God your self first, and then you'd have the capacity to see more effective obviously if the guy is sweet for you. you are able to satisfy him at a bible learn or a service, or everywhere for that be counted. Un-frustrate your self by way of analyzing the Bible on your human being. The Gospel of John is a good position to commence. you'll choose some help and that i'm particular God will direct you to it, in case you extremely seek for him. he's the in consumer-friendly words answer. Amen.

I'm not sure about the statement about crosses being invented 100 years AD. What about the remains of Spartacus' army @ 50 BC that were crucified at each mile between Capua and Rome? Surely there weren't always convenient trees?
Crucifixion implies a cross, so unless you have authority to back up your statement, we can assume that crosses were used.
Still, ease up on the rants man. You don't serve the cause of freethinking by sounding like one of the fanatics from the believers.

Because they rarely read it and because it is a transliteration no matter which version you use. So far only the Book of Isiah seems to be totally authentic according to the oldest source I have heard of the Dead Sea Scrolls. But even its authenticity is that the two sources seem to agree. By the way it seems no one really knows the true name of the Spirit that created all things and became flesh and dwelt among us.

Are you stupid? Jesus died on a cross, just like the majority of people who the romans crucified. To answer your question, because everyone wants to interpret the Bible the way they see fit, thinking that they can change the way God made it.

Of course they're all different answers. Look at the globs - oops, gospels: they are four different versions of the same story, and none of them agree in their narrative. Heck, the two fables of cretin - oops, creation - in both "genesis" and "exodus" don't agree with each other, nor do the three version of the ten condom-ends - oops, commandments.
If the bible were a person, it would be Sybil Isabel Dorsett.

There are MANY 'versions' of a "bible".
Mostly it's a matter of 'cherry-picking' and ignoring various portions of many ancient-texts, along with a large amount of 'making-things-up' / rationalisations in order to make a 'version'-of a bible say pretty-much whatever one wants it to say.
So, depending on what one wants it to say, there are different answers for different people.
That's assuming that a person actually READS their 'edited-version' of a bible, instead of just going-along-with whatever they're told to believe.

So where is the question in all this and if you know so much of the answers why should it bother you how every one else perceives things? Quit worrying over needless issues...better yet get a life..
