great book?? sheesh ...

it's not a Da Vinci wannabe??

and

Why?

>> Also, it is funny that the letter of Jude quotes The Book of Enoch as scripture, while this book was left out of the canon. If The Bible is infallible, then Enoch has to be in it or Jude out of it.<<

Other books of the Bible incorporate material from "other" traditions -- doesn't mean it is any less inspired given the context??

I mean the Bible wasn't written by God's finger on the page -- if it can be accepted as legit, one must recognize sinful men were used to write it and record it??

You could, by the same line of reasoning, say that God cannot be incorruptible or holy because we are here ... since He made us.

Enoch isn't the only book referenced that is not in the canon -- and who knows but that the folks who decided what's in and what wasn't -- had evidence that Enoch I was written after Jude??
