from a book written by humans, hundreds of years after Christ allegedly was crucified, after 30 or 40 re-writings and translations, for people to claim the Bible is the "literal word of God" tells me they are extremely gullible and lazy. They cannot think for themselves, and that's no way to advance into the future.
