Philosophers and scientists alike will say that the Bible is not trustworthy. This is because they do not take the time to dive into the Bible as a historical work. The Bible needs to be examined as an artifact rather than just a book. When examined in this way‚ the Bible can be seen as trustworthy just through the numbers that appear and through the historical evidence found in the writings of other rulers.

Either you were going to heaven and live with God‚ or hell with the devil‚ constantly burning. In this narrow-minded perception of the world‚ I viewed anyone who lived differently as a sinner. If a woman dressed in a way as to expose any flesh she was considered‚ as being a “loose” woman and was not saved. Also the Bible was the only source of reading‚ with the exception of schoolbooks
