Humm,
Everett,
In one place in the Bible, maybe more than one, it says: WE ARE ALL SINNERS AND HAVE FALLEN SHORT OF THE GLORY OF GOD, or some such statement. In another place it says: JUDGE NOT THAT YOU MAY BE JUDGED or some such statement. Now Everett you have to come down on one side of that issue or the other. Organized Religion for better or worse, has judged us all sinners. Now like it or not, that is a contradiction. Because all the words in the Bible were written by sinners how can you believe any of it? After all we have all fallen short of the glory of God and know nothing from nothing. Why do you think there are so many different brands of religion out there? All professing that they are the true one.
Even the 10 Commandments gives you a contradiction right out of the gate. Thou shall have no other Gods before me. Everett, here is God professing there are other Gods out there, or more likely, Moses didn't think it thru when he wrote down those words, no?
But just add drama to the game, Moses didn't just get those 10 commandments, he had to go up on a mountain, and to add more drama, there was a burning bush! There is no doubt in my mind that there is a lot of polishing of the Bible over the centuries, and it is still being polished. So good buddy you have a lot of new questions to ask your preacher, if he takes questions!
