If you believe in God and Jesus, you believe in the Word. And you know, 500 or 1000 years from now, people looking at history books will say "nah, that stuff never happened, it's all made up", referring to our present. If we never make it back to the moon, people will stop believing it ever happened, etc. It's human nature, I suppose, to doubt events that are huge that we didn't see for ourselves. One last thought: No one ever came forward and said, I was there and Jesus didn't walk on water. Or, Jesus didn't feed multitudes with just 5 loaves and 2 fishes. Not one person ever came forward and said, I was there, and that didn't happen.

There is a clear distinction between what is supposed to be parable and what's real. deepdope Sun, 17 Aug 2008 21:32:55 -0500 http://www.riledup.com/debate/1710/the-stories-in-the-bible-are-meant-to-inspire-good-behavior-they-didnt-really-happen http://www.riledup.com/debate/1710/the-stories-in-the-bible-are-meant-to-inspire-good-behavior-they-didnt-really-happen
