[QUOTE="ExTiff, post: 73406778, member: 413502"] And Shakespeare and Aesop's Fables are entirely fiction and contains no truth of any kind whatever either, especially when you take them literally, as you seem to be implying [I]all literature[/I] must be, including the whole of the Bible, if it is considered to be in any way 'true' to life or wise in it's aphorisms, allegories or complex metaphorically mythical and poetic language. Not at all 'inspired', as any bored and inattentive, ignorant school-child will tell you. Not worth bothering with. But why bother reading anything but science books and 'Agnostic Weekly'? Why bother reading at all? Especially when it takes effort and research to understand author's intentions properly. It surely is not a simple choice between 'Deliberate Design' and 'Blind Unpredictable Chance'. You seem to have adopted a very binary system of logic when considering the possibility of a creating spirit being behind the material creation, evolutionary principles and the divine inspiration of scripture. (Or for that matter even the human 'inspiration' of any literature at all, which, in your opinion may not to be purely historically and scientifically 'factual'.) . [/QUOTE]
