I really am just curious here. Not wanting to be a debate or anything.
But how many people here, (professing Christian or atheist...or somewhere in between) have actually read the Bible, in its entirety?
Ive met very few people (Christian or atheist) Who have.
Makes me wonder how people can debate something that they have never read?
Ive read *some* of the Hindu Vedas but would never claim to be an authority of Hinduism based solely on a partial reading of their scriptures.
I went to a lot of bible study meeting when I was a lot younger so I guess I have read a fair bit of it. We didn't start with Genesis and end with Revelation though, so maybe I have not read it from cover to cover.
