[QUOTE="reneeb7363, post: 2121998, member: 569914"] ---WARNING-- HERE GOES THE WIND BAG WITH ANOTHER OF HER OPINIONS!-- The history of man shows us 'man' has, and always will, accomadate himself first. We are a greedy creature and have and will modify our environment to suit our needs, or the "popular" public vote. Yes, this includes changing a/the story to modify our needs as we see fit. The reference to the childrens game of 'phone' is very accurate, and NO, language does not translate well between cultures, let alone personalities. Think you can live by the Bibles laws...DO READ Leviticus, DO REad the old Testament... and good luck with that. I, as many, have grown up in a very religious environment and have, through the years, attempted to find a so-called "church" worth attending. Alas, there is no such community of worshippers (that I would consider) that DO NOT have their own personal agenda. Not a single group of people take the word for the word. And what exactly is the word? An interpretation by falliable mankind. Broken down in its simplicity it is a set of rules and guidelines interpreted by man, assuming there was an all mighty creator of said rules. It is still, then, poisoned/altered by mankind and his natural act of preservation/selfishness. Holy men are not selfish you say? What then of free will that 'GOD' gave his children? EVERY PERSON has a natural instinct of preservation and conservation and WILL say what need be said or written to ensure their and their species/races own conservation. The Bible? For how we as a creature treat it, may as well be used as fire starting material, a weapon, a grave...it is no better than the paper it is written on.
