I agree. So one would need to study, test, prove, see the affects and research history to see the truth in the Bible. Once done then that's where faith comes in for the validity of the Bible as being God's inspired word.

We should always remember that the bible is written of people with another agenda than to deliver the word of god.

Men. But how can you presume to know their agenda?

To gain political power with the aid of religion. A very good idea, because it worked.
My favourite writer in these matters is Karen Armstrong. She knows what she is writing about.

You're really a pompous fool. There is no consensus among historians on who wrote Genesis.

And now you lost the discussion.
If your arguments fail, then bring up personal attacks.
It always works. Right?
Well, not always. You lose.

Was this a game? Right, Fabian. You "win". 🙄

Care to answer then how Karen Armstrong can know the motives of authors that are unknown?
