The verbiage is a little below me, but that is entirely what I expected. It serves the purpose of my inquisition, to provide a loose background for which to base my atheism. Instead of just believing in something for the sake of justifying science, I want to know and get some understanding of what it may be like to be religious, and then base my beliefs off of that. So far, I am unchanged, however, it has been interesting read an adapted version of the earth's "greatest book".
ReplyDeleteThere is a lot of repetitive language in this rendition of the bible. I guess that must be due to its accessibility to a younger audience. It does make understanding it a lot easier, though, it presents the story, in all its depth, without the need to sift through the complex words to find the meaning.
ReplyDeletewould you say that it is a good story, or is it just important because of the world we live in? Would you read it if it weren't such an important religious book?
