TD,

Let me get the books title and author and post it. I read it a while back. It does some analysis of the bible and gives time lines of when the various books of the new testament were written. I found it quite enlightening.

<<the Bible is all you need>>
I don't agree with this statement as I do not believe the bible can be taken literally. I believe you have to look at the works of the biblical scholars to get the true meaning of what is said. You must take into consideration the context of when it is written and then try to apply it to modern times. I confess that I am not a biblical scholar so I do try to rely on the experts.

Of course when you read different scholars you get different points of view and different interpretations. That is what makes it so fascinating.

Sometime we must discuss the story of sodom which some scholars say has nothing at all to do with homosexuality.
