Because it is written as if it was.

The fact that God didn’t personally write it and send the book down, and apparently “talked” to other people to get it to write it for him, and the multiple revisions as well, at least throws doubt into the idea of God having wrote it.
Primitive and Ignorant, well I guess that centers on what you consider primitive and ignorant. We could say that your primitive and ignorant, but I digress I care not

I’m not Cid but, since you put it on here instead of sending him a PM, assuming you’ve read the Bible, you’ve seen the manner of writing by the writers (especially the New Testament). Do you still honestly think they are “ignorant and primitive”?

It depends what version of the Bible were talking about first.
Some people go in and write the Bible on how they see fit.
The King James Version is the one I use.

Primitive - A person belonging to a nonindustrial, often tribal society, especially a society characterized by a low level of economic complexity.
Igonrant - Lacking education or knowledge.
Yes, I believe they where primitive and ignorant.

I thought it was pretty clear. Well, it was written by a person, way back when, and over the years has gone through many different revisions. That’s a lot of potential for a person to put in their opinions and simply claim it as God’s word.
EDIT: Forgot the translations as well, with possible translation errors.

Thats a explanation.. a pretty poor one, but what makes you think this is correct?

I don’t get what you mean by correct. I said that it puts doubt into the idea of God writing the bible, because of the potential for people to just put in what they feel, in any point along the line.

Do you consider the Persians, Babylonians, Assyrians, Medes, Greeks, Medes, Chinese and Romans of that general time period primitive also?

I can not say that, I have to inspect each of the evidence for each person (not culture).

Durring the time of the New Testiment, everybody on earth was Ignorant and Primal. How is the Bible any less of a source of knowledge than anybody else?

Ok... whats more likely that god wrote the bible knowing that people would re write it, or that the bible was written by a person?

Well, to me, it’s the latter, but I don’t see why you’re asking.

Knowledge in what? You need to state more detail when you say things like this.

What is more likely.
God wrote the bible, knowing that it would be rewritten
or
People wrote the bible

Actually, you do. Your the one that defined Ignorant as lacking education or knowledge, so you need to provide what knowledge is considered acceptable to give credibility to something.
