There is also a book called a "concordance" which lists every word in the Bible and the Bible verse in which that word appears. After reading all the verses containing that particular word, one will understand how God uses that word in the Bible. In fact, today there are electronic computer) concordances that will make this task so much easier!

I read the Bible all the way through four times, and found more problems and contradictions than "answers." This is a big reason why I'm no longer a Christian.

I am grateful for the Bible because it led me to the most important spiritual decision I have ever made - the decision to reject Christianity entirely, and listen to the words of deity in my own heart. You should try that sometime.

No, latter rain, no one has ever thought of looking in the bible for answers to religions questions. Are you freaking serious? Christianity is the single most popular religion on the planet. Where do you THINK all those people are looking for answers to their religious questions? TV guide?

I'll support Catrionn.
It was study of the bible, over some time and in some depth, that in part led me to cease to be a Christian.
Not *lack* of familiarity with it, at all.

It's the first place I go to when I have a question or want to understand an issue.

No, because honestly the Bible does not have the answers to my deepest secrets; the answers I seek

this is been my journey that morally incorrect judgements or strikes are risky to ourselves and/or others. This injury could be psychological, emotional, actual or any blend of the three.

First, "spiritual" is pretty much a non-word. It's fairly meaningless. Secondly, the Bible isn't much of a guide. It has some really nasty stuff and bad advice with scant wisdom.
