As divine as the author Joseph Flavius Piso and the rest of the Roman aristocrats who wrote it.

Just as divine as The Geeta, The Ramayana, the Quran, the Panchatantra, The Tibetan book of the Dead, The Illiad, the Odessey, The Torah, the Jataka Tales and a hundred other scriptures revered as truth by people of various nations, races, and climates.

It depends on the binding sweetie. I saw this absolutely divine antique edition in a used book store the other day!
The content on the other hand is merely a selective compilation of early Christian writing that supports the ROMAN catholic viewpoint on ORGANIZED and INSTITUTIONALIZED religious practices . Any thing that contradicted that bias was left out.

Can it be divine to you? If not, then I guess you don't believe it. If you don't believe it, then according to it, as it reports what Jesus said, you are not one of his people.
Maybe the creative people who claim that it wasn't inspired by God would have a problem with that. But I REALLY don't care. God inspried it, and anyone who says that He couldn't have is just plain wrong. And that's exciting to me. Really, really exciting. I love it.

Heh, I wonder that the blatant words in the New Testament are so elusive to those who don't understand it, when it is right in front of them!

as devine as the illiad or the oddessy.
The bible (new and old testament) are colection of fables, most pagan set to judaistic overtones.
Christians that use them to live by is their own choice, but christians who use them to persecute and gain fascism is wrong.

That seems pleasantly bizarre. I will definitely give it a try.
I just love cranks and conspiracy theories.

Religion has no objection to not revealing the full story, when it furthers their agenda.

the gospels are Jesus pointing us to God. The Letters of Paul are pointing to Jesus. Thats the whole point.

it's some of the best stuff I've ever read. The way Jesus teaches and speaks, it touches you. What he felt and he was afraid of dying, when he was on the cross, he kept saying "Father, why hast thou forsaken me?"
Jesus is the number one person I'd love to just be able to see him teach.
