Bradyns Blog: 1,529 More Contradictions In The Bible



There are still those for whom the Bible is an absolutely, literally, accurate source
.
Admittedly they are getting fewer
.
Leaving aside those such as the Born again people
.
Most today would understand that the Christian Bible was written long after the death of the alleged Jesus and as such is merely a guide.
.
Particularly as it has been altered many, many times
.
As a much quoted source though seldom do we hear about the many contradictions it contains.
.
Contradictions used in many different ways by those trying to make their point about this or that
.
Contradictions used by Church leaders to maintain control of their 'flocks'.
.
Yes 'flocks' is what some of these Christian sects call their devotees.
.
Is it not time that we understand that we are responsible for our own actions?


That the basic rules of all the world's major religions are the same
.
The same because they all come from the perennial or ageless wisdom
.
This body of knowledge has been available to us throughout the ages
.
Then over time it gets distorted by the very religions that were once upon a time based upon it
.
Until we end up with distortions such as the current versions of the Bible
.
Bradyn has written the following and while I have not checked out what he claims, feel that he makes a good point
.

.
The point being that it is time for humanity to grow up
.
Time for us all to be responsible for our own behaviour
.
No God or Buddha may lead our lives for us
.
They may only point the way
.
Pointing the way to less self-centred and selfish behaviour.
