Sam,

I am struggling to see the value in your Bible bashing. The Bible was surely a amalgam of earlier religions and myths, but this does not diminish its value as a spiritual text.

And it also contains some original ideas. The concept of forgiveness, for example, first made its appearance as a spiritual tenet in the Bible. This is a monumentally profound idea that I have never found in any other spiritual text that predates the Bible.

What is your valuation of the concept of forgiveness? Have you seen it promulgated elsewhere?

Do you see any value in the Bible?
