I know. It’s just that the double standard applied to the Bible and other historical documents sometimes annoys me.

People often treat the Bible as one document when it’s not; it’s many different sources compiled for ease of access. I also don’t see the skepticism directed at other historical documents the same way as it is towards Scripture. There’s the mentality that if it’s in the Bible, it’s suspect but if it’s from somewhere else it’s reliable.

You’d think they’d have learned by now what with all that has been found to support the Bible and give it more credibility that ever and yet they still act surprised to find out the Bible was right. The Bible right-— fancy that..
