  The Bible from Genesis to revelation and some apocrypha books are considered "God`s Inspired Word" written by imperfect men over the centuries.

  Yet Jesus Christ who never wrote a single sentence yet claimed to be the Son of God and changed the history of the world not by what he said and did ,but by what others claimed he said and did.

  Moses wrote five books Jesus wrote none .

  How can Jesus be considered greater than Moses ?

  Did the political powers that be in those days see an advantage of making Jesus and Christianity an opportunity for power and authority over the population of the time ?

  Moses was merely an editor of previous written info (supposedly), most likely stories passed down, not original thoughts and certainly not inspired by god.

  Much of what is in the bible is considered credible by circular reasoning.

  So can we consider the bible a book that was ghost-written by humans for god?

  a person whose job it is to write material for someone else who is the named author.

  Actually Moses didn't write the first 5 books, especially considering that the 5th book describes Moses's death.

  Nobody knows who wrote these fairy tale books. There is nothing special about the bible. A book that is full of nonsense and contradictions.

  Even the things in the bible that you could say are good, are not impressive in anyway. Ohh, "don't kill", "don't rob", "don't sleep with your neighbors wife". We are supposed to be impressed by that? Even other people around the world who don't believe in the bible have figured that out.

  You can walk into any book store and find self help books that far ahead of the bible. Books that provide real strategies and methods for living healthy, balanced lives, not the vague and redundant drivel based on middle eastern peasant philosophy.

  redvip2000, I know I left something out from my post sometimes my fingers don't type everything that I am thinking, that Moses did not compile the first 5 books either. That is only a dance around jws/WTS use to explain the discrepancies in authorship.

  Not true.. jesus is god... and god wrote the 10 commandments with his own mini finger.. so technically that's 40 plus 1 god.

  Jesus wrote something, but they took it out. (John 8:6)

  Just because he was "perfect" doesn't mean he could write. The bible says he could read but no mention that he could write! Or maybe he did write stuff and his stuff just didn't make the cut when the catholic church was assembling the bible.

  just saying!

  the 10 commandments were not written by moses but directly by gods finger... so that makes him also one of the writers.....

  btw if you also believe that jesús is god... then that makes jesús also a writer.
