::: My beliefs about the Bible are that everything is true, but allowing for it truthfully recording the lies of people, allowing for metaphor and figures of speech, parables, and so forth. As per evidence such as that in [[creation week]], I am totally convinced that the creation account does not fall into any of those categories, but is literal history. [[User:Philip J.

::::I admit I'm young, but I find that interesting. How does one decide which of the bible is literal, which is figurative; which is Truth, and what has been altered. I believe, in my heart of hearts, that good men, inspired by God wrote the Bible. But that like all things of this earth, humans are imperfect, and can be affected (effected? I never know the difference, sorry) by ego, temptation, misjudgment, error, misunderstanding, desire to connect to the common folk, etc. I would like that over time, I talk with enough pastors, read enough books, and pray on my own enough to begin to understand the Bible in the best way possible.--[[User:JeanJacques|JeanJacques]] 10:20, 27 October 2008 (EDT)
