      yeah I was about to say, just cause ones older than the other doesnt give it any more credibility.

      They were still written by men, men with agendas. Same with every translation they’ve gone through, Not only getting translated, but having minor to major tweaks to suit the new agendas.

        Bible is an astrological sungod myth for the dawn of the age of Pisces (fish), end of age of Taurus (dead bull), and looking forward to age of Aquarius (guy with water pail). It tells the winter solstice, dying for 3 days and rising again, the spring equinox triumph over darkness, and helped civilizations track the 2250-year constellation progression into Pisces. In 2250 we’ll need a new Bible for Aquarius.
