And by "we" it's we the people. We will decide for ourselves what to follow and believe. It is no one's place to regulate ideas and information. Not a single good or positive event in human history ever came about because of censorship. And ALL ideologies are guilty of attempting to regulate thoughts and ideas EXCEPT Jesus. And I mean real, Jew Jesus not, white American, gun toting, Republican jesus.
"Treat others the way you want to be treated." Don't want your thoughts and ideas regulated? Don't regulate the thoughts and ideas of others.
And in an ideal world, the Bible would be its own Library of Congress. But it's not. It's been bastardized and abused to control people. It's had a lot of books left out with the convenient "inspired by god" excuse as justification.
Nevermind the CIA using media to brainwash people. Nevermind hollywood promoting their idealism with impunity. Nevermind the fake narratives. But the Bible is "holy" cause we believe right? It's totally secure and 100% accurate? Lol. If you want to believe that for yourself, fine. But your belief is NOT objective fact and just because others believe similarly does not vindicate your personal beliefs. Faith is a personal journey and that's it. It does not give you authority over others. It does not grant you the power to decide who gets into eternity and who doesn't.
The Bible was created with a purpose. That purpose is the mission of the Bible. It doesn't mean it's 100% perfect, or complete, or accurate. It means it doesn't need to be.
The real key is grasping what the purpose of the Bible is, and then using it to fulfill that purpose. While the Bible we know is not 'perfect', the purpose behind it and the driving Divine influence is, imo. So the key is connecting to that divine source, and building a relationship there, to which, at this point in history, the Bible is a sufficient instrument.
And, if we recall, guns don't murder people. People murder people. The Bible is an instrument, open to abuse or effective use, depending on who wields it.
I know of many of the arguments against the scripture. The books that were left out, the ones that were included. But I certainly hold it holy NOT because the text, or insights, or the motives of the instruments used to compile it - any of that being perfect. But the Will behind it, utilizing it, is Holy. And ergo. In other words, the great infinite understands and works within the framework of the shortcomings and flaws of the human condition, for a specific purpose.
No. You won't. There is great judgement for disgusting zealots like you for damming people to hell in the name of Jesus. THAT is taking His name in vein. I rebuke you and all the other phony faggoty ass pieces of shit who have shilled for the cabal and further divided this country with your childish tribalism and arrogance.
Jesus will decide my fate. Not you or any mortal man. Fag.

You sound confused , get a kjv Bible. There is only one kind of christian. One who believes that Jesus died for them.
No. You don't get to decide that.

The corrupt people that manupulate news and history to their advantage today have been doing that for a 1000 years or more.
If you don't think they have corrupted the most influential book in the west since roman times then i would say think again..
