I read on the radio once people taking about all the different Bible's of the religions and the Holy Bible would probably have an error of about .002% though the 200 years. Other bibles like the muslim crayon(koran) would have about 20% and the Budist bible would have about 10% and the list of bibles goes on.

The News Paper is not Christian. That is what radio station it was.
News papers are mostly libreal. The radio is not.

I only get the paper on Sunday's but I only read the Sports section if I even read it at all. I watch T.V. for my news.

Supposedly, you have now cornered the market on defining words, specifically, moderate.
Without addressing your ignorance on the historicity of biblical accounts, you are assuming somehow that currently held views of any historical event are the standard. How fundamental of you.
Remember to assume is to make an 'ass' out of 'u' and 'me'; which you do eloquently.
I do not propose we have a clear view of the past, most do not even have a clear view of the present. Religion is one of the things that further distorts both past and present.

Magazines.

Originally posted by fooeyWhen one uses a word, one is responsible for using it correctly, so as to convey accuracy. When you say the majority of moderate Christians, you are in error with the use of the word 'moderate' and/or 'majority.'

Assuming I made an ass out of me is acceptable, as long as you were along for the ride.
With your shift of Bible to religion, you are changing the topic.

Ya'll likely have liberal papers, we have Lib Real. Your radios pick up broadcasts, our radios are bona fide conservatives, and Christian ones to boot.
We read our radios, watch our newspapers, and listen to our telly.
Originally posted by NemesioDo you consider yourself a bible scholar?
This is wrong. Classical scholars correct and amend manuscripts of all of these
authors all the time. They note additions and changes, they note errors and
make commentaries.
They also indicate where Tacitus, Herodotus or whoever is just plain wrong in
their histories.
These very techniques -- the ones honed and refined with these classical autho ...[text shortened]... ing to refuse to acknolwedge that same work when applied to
the Christian Scripture.

i think that Jesus did exist. I think he was a great guy. And I also think that people would benefit from following some of the stuff he said. But a lot of the directives given in the Old Testament are just morally wrong. (putting someone to death who works on the Sabbath, for example.)
