I don't think so. But I believe some have conspired to misuse it.
The Bible is inspired by God, but written by man. So, it is not perfect. But it's man's attempt to write down what God was saying and in that context, it's an amazing book.
There are some very wonderful things in the Bible. If someone "conspired" to come up with, "Treat others as you want to be treated," then it's alright with me. ; )

No, it's a collection of historical writings, most of the people who wrote the Bible didn't even know each other so there is no way it could possibly be a conspiracy.

Nah... it was probably a bunch of people who decided to try to put the stuff they'd learned down in writing, and then as time wore on, others added stuff about thinks they thought they knew - like seafood and homosexuality are abominations. And then people forgot to look at the difference between known (eating unrefrigerated pork might bring on trichinosis) and the things people thought they knew (a guy was risen from the dead 70 nyears ago).

No, it was simply a collection of the history of different tribes within a specific area. And then they left out bunch of it anyway.

By atheists, yes. It is was a primitive attempt at controlling the masses by inducing fear and sustainging ignorance into the minds of the population. For 1700 years, its worked pretty well. Now we're kicking oursevles for it.

Uh, no. A conspiracy by whom? A bunch of writers who for the most part didn't even know each other? Writers who were martyred for their beliefs? I doubt it very much.

If it was they must have been pretty good to "predict" more than a thousand future events with 100% accuracy. Not to mention it would mean that a lot of people died defending something they knew was a lie. Not likely. Would you die defending a lie?

If it was it was between the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit.
