I don't think we'll ever really know what God said, or what happened way back then.
So many wars, and so many different regimes. All of which seemed to pillage and burn all the books and learning of the time, keeping and then rewriting what the specific regime wanted. When the bible was put together parts that were deemed to not be suitable were burnt. The amount of learning destroyed by the romans alone, or the Spanish is just incalculable. There are even parts of the gospels, for example St. Peter's that seem to make various references to the Political situation of the time with Rome, and the text that he wrote down takes pot shots at the Roman rulers who had begun to persecute him and those of his belief. So a lot of different influences entered these writings. I mean take even the days of slavery and the annihilation of entire civilisations in the Caribbean. We piece together bit by bit what these lives would have been like, but so much of how they lived...what they did and why has been lost, destroyed by the 'conquerors'. The victors make the history and set the 'truth' after the fact. Sadly...I just don't know what we really know ^_^ Except that we know nothing :) On 5/14/07, Gruss Gott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > And why would God decided to inspire some people prior to writing and > never inspire anyone again?
