Is That Really in the Bible?
There are precious nuances contained within the Bible. I employ logical reasoning and utilize life experiences to understand the Bible as a stand-alone book without carrying any kind of religious baggage from my early years. It is important to separate Biblical facts from fiction and streamline the ploy of myth makers about human existence. Anyone willing to see the Bible as more than a religious guide will hopefully find my efforts and research illuminating and helpful.
