It is not just that I cling to the bible and I freely admit that I do. It is the methods used to suppress anything that might remotely infer there is any validity to bible. This is already too long. Read what happened to Emanuel Velikovsky. He was one of the founders of Hebrew University, no crackpot and certainly not on the bible side. He equated the bible with all ancient myth. But read about him. To really get an idea read what he actually wrote and see how it was twisted. Um, he wrote an awful lot. Also read forbidden Archeology. Pretty thick but written so us 8th grade graduates could plow through it. Couple of Hindu guys wrote it. No bible bias there.
Wow! Velikovsky and Forbidden Archeology?
I guess you believe in everything except science.
I have a lot of quartz crystals, would you be interested? Sorry, I have to charge extra for magical properties.
In closing I lied earlier.
How can you tell?
