WHAT I WANT TO KNOW IS.....

What I want to know is
, "How many people are actually familiar with what they are talking about?"

This morning, I hear on the news that, according to a recent poll, an alleged 60% of Americans believe that the Bible is the absolute, infallible, revealed “word of God,” and, therefore, that every word is correct.

What I want to know is how many of these 156+ million people have actually read the Bible, all of the Bible. And if they have read it, and they believe that this is God’s message to them, then why are we having so few sacrifices. The air should be heavy with the smell of blood and burning flesh from all of the sacrifices “required” in atonement for sins in the book of Leviticus. Maybe we’ve decided to let McDonald’s do the animal bloodletting for us. “Have a Big Mac, my child, and be absolved from your sins.” It frightens me that my fellow citizens are so gullible.

For those interested in examining versions, comparisons, and inconsistencies in the Bible, InnVista is a good place to go.
