That we can learn about historical events that happened thousands of years ago from documentation, doesn’t mean that those events exist ‘because of’ the documentation. Those events still happened, regardless of the existence or not of the documentation.

I don’t worship the Bible. If others choose to, so be it.

My beliefs are not threatened by those who choose to worship the Bible.


You create a strawman to defend you lack of faith in God protecting His Word.
