The Bible, and quaran are unarguably an incredible book. Itis the best-selling, most quoted, most published, most circulated, most translated, most influential book in the history of mankind.


But why should anyone believe that these religious books are actuallytrue?

The Quran was plagiarized from Bible and some ancient myth. Bible contain most of summerian text, egyptian myths and lot of manipulations.

It both false....

Hey Tobe,

I believe firmly that Sacred scriptures (Bible) can be trusted and it is very relevant in our modern world.

However, I do not trust the way some persons interpret it or apply it in our time.

Of the 27 books of the NT only 8 can be ascribed to their declared authors. The 7 undisputed letters of Paul and the revelation of John, though he does not claim to be any particular John. The deutero-Pauline documents are obviously not the work of Paul neither are the pastoral epistles, 2 Peter is an obvious forgery by a writer who has tried to pass himself off as Simon Peter. The synoptics are just as bad, they are not written by any of the named authors, worse, not one of them actually knew Jesus or even knew anyone who knew him, naturally the four gospel writers do not agree on anything other than the fact that Jesus was crucified, the devil is well and truly in the detail. The NT is riddled with forgeries and historical inconsistencies as to render it pretty useless other than as exceptional prose. Modern revised versions of the NT with their subtle redactions, omissions and re-interpretations have merely compounded the problems. Further, the Old testament is a thousand fold worse.

So who has the right interpretations? How do you know the right interpretation?

Trust in the interpretation of the Church.

They have the mandate to teach the faithful, not the Bible.

If by 'interpretation' you mean 'translation' then that's not what I am talking about.
