Proving the critics wrong

IP:

I'm a believer in Christ and the bible. Some people, erroneously, assumed that all I read or have read is the bible to form my views. This has never been true. But, I recently check out a book called "Myths of the Bible" to get another perspective on the stories in the bible. As tough as it was to read, the author basically portrayed the Old Testament as nothing more than fairy tales, myths, and "stolen" beliefs from other Mesopotamian and Babylonian religions. It simply offered another perspective. Some things he pointed out were misperceptions on our part because it's what we've been told. Other things were more elaborate in his claim that the old testament is full of myths. I believe what I believe. So, I don't hold everything he says as truth or not. It's something else to be debated and considered.




That's all.
