The bible, is it real, has the thought ever crossed your mind. Us children have all been taught that you should not question the bible. This a very controversial topic, is the bible true or is a another book? I think the bible isn't true, I think it is just another book. I have 3 reasons, one is that science can tell us more about the world than the bible. Two, the bible was written a long time ago and does not apply now. Back then if you did something the people could understand, it was branded as either witchcraft or you were so type of god-being. The three rd reason is that something things or events in the bible contradicts itself. For all these reasons, the bible can't be true.
The first reason is that science has more information than the bible. The bible said how the world was created, but how the world created in the bible doesn't make sense. It says how man was created, that god made him from clay and dirt. Science has proved that humans have evolved from lesser forms of life. Bones dating back millions of year ago.
The second is the bible was made in a time when people didn't know alot about the world. They didn't even have the equipment to study either. Some people thought the earth was flat and that there were mythical creatures around. Now, in the present we have more intelligent and we know how the really works.
My final reason for why the bible is not true is that some events in the bible contradict it. The story of how Jesus was born, the detail in that story seem a little funny. God impregnated Mary, but she was married. Is god above even his own laws. I don't think god give her a baby, she possibly cheated on Joseph and didn't want to tell him. Why you ask would she want anyone to know. Well, because back than you were stoned if convicted of cheating. She was to afraid of being killed so she make everyone believe Jesus was a miracle baby.
In conclusion, I have given my main reasons I think the bible is just another book. This may not be undeniable evidence but its a start. The first reason, science has a alot more information about the world. The Second, the bible was made by people who know almost nothing of how the world worked. The Third, events and stories have things that happen that contradict themselves and all that the bible stands for. I've done my part now you decide for yourself. When your reading the bible next time, think about the events and my essay I've wrote. Think about it, what if in a thousand year some one finds a book about a fictional character. This person doesn't know it, but the character is very convincing. I've realized that its all about a person's beliefs......what do you believe in?
