The biblical account of Jesus' life humor and teachings could be true in some general sense without being true in every detail. It could establish broad moral humor principles without dictating detailed moral behavior. But if humor you're going to take that position, it weakens your claim that others are misinterpreting or misrepresenting the Bible. And it doesn't change the fact that teachings that liberal Christians are uncomfortable with and tend to ignore or downplay, such as the doctrine of hell, are prominent themes not only in Jesus own statements, but in the Bible more generally. That's a common belief but certainly not one that's not universal to Christianity. The arguments you raise are perfectly good reasons to doubt the word-for-word exactness of every single part of the bible, but that doesn't necessarily mean the underlying substance is completely false (that's where the question of faith comes in). |

| I think in a lot of ways the most successful trends in Western civilization run counter to the central message of the gospel, clips which promotes a merciful attitude towards the poor rather than an aggressive program of pulling oneself (but not necessarily anyone else) out of poverty. The latter is so obviously (and the former so obviously not) the engine of what most people clips call progress that Christianity becomes difficult to reconcile with modern life. The message of the gospel to the have nots is pretty clear, but its appeal to the haves may have more clips to do with history than the actual content. Posted by: Paul Callahan | Dec 21, 2004 6:03:40 PM veruca: I don't think, though, that believing Christ is who the gospels say he said he was, or that the gospels are "true" has to be the same thing as saying they, or any other part of the bible is a word-for-word exact statement of exactly what happened and mandate for every aspect of how to live your life. |
