I have no wish to get into a religious discussion since I really don't believe, I have never believed and I think it extremely unlikely that I ever will.
The bible is written by man and man is fallible.
The bible is a translation and anyone who speaks more than one language will tell you how difficult it is to translate one language to another. Ever heard the expression "lost in translation" ?
Each Christian group has it's own interpretation of the good book and if the believers (Baptists / Catholics / Protestants / Others) cannot agree then they have very little chance of convincing those who don't.

Just my take on the holy book.
