Is the Bible God's Word?

[Audie]

I believe the Bible is God's Word.

So god is a bit of a joker, isnt he?

The most popular, widely read and influential book in the history of humanity?

I'd say that is certainly consistent with a divine work!

According to some sources, mao's little red book has had more printed copies.

That's debatable, but irrelevant to the point. A stance on either creation or evolution wouldn't be easy to confirm. I have an account by the alleged creator, and you have theoretical speculation.

Not debatable at all, the evidence for evolution is overwhelming, there is no evidence for god magic.

Well if you don't count other published books then of course the bible is most published.

How about another parameter? Most sold? Most Bibles are given away free. I believe the Bible or Mao's red book don't make the top 100 best sellers.

That's why I said "The most popular, widely read and influential book in the history of humanity?"

Because that would be the goal of a divine work would it not? I don't think God would care much about the bragging rights- of being merely the 'most printed' or topping the NY best seller list, do you?

You are presupposing the god. That is backwards. You must demonstrate the existence of the god, and then you can discuss what it may or may not have done.
