I have a problem with the whole bible. As a English Major, We recently spent a smester on life writing and looking at the bible, it is a colaborative piece of life writing. But just how accurate is it. How subjective were the writers. Its not written by Jesus himself, but merely a set of collaborators who wrote acounts on what they believe and life writing has shown us that memory is faulty and that authors are subjective in their accounts of what happened.
I seek to discredit the whole bible as fiction on the basis that there is no historical fact to support the writings conained within and that history itself is faulty as it is based on the scribings of people based on memorative accounts which can be faulty.
That’s funny I live in Texas and if you want to buy a bible you have to get it in the fiction section at the bookstore.
Smart book store owners.
Biblical fiction actually this is Texas it’s funny seeing the tourist come through here wearing cow boy hats.

Unless you take into account the fact that most of what Jesus said in the bible was parable and not to be taken literally. Or the fact that some of it was said pre-death and some after, a point in time which 'changed the rules'. But yeah, sure, all of this totally legit if you ignore that stuff.
Says in the video that these are things jesus said and jesus is god and god is perfect....so we are to go against what jesus said???

Many flaws in that video. Your supposed to substitute the blood and flesh with wine/grape juice and bread, not like you can find Jesus’s decaying corpse laying nearby. Also, you don’t need to be a disciple to go to heaven, you can’t actually be a disciple anymore since Jesus isn’t here. So a lot of those laws don’t belong there.
PS: I’m not Christian, but I’m just correcting the video.
i dont believe the adam and eve crap... that would mean that everybody would be related...
and heres something to wrap ure mind around, since god is “perfect” y did he create lucifer, the angel (forgot which angel he was XD)? if he knew that he would try and overthrow y make him in the first place and let him create a hell? if that was a mistake then that means god is not perfect

Everyone is still related either way. In the other case, by a single celled organism, meaning mushrooms our are cousins!!!
