nah... i do not believe everything in the bible on the sole basis that it is man made and the bible is existing already for about hundred years or so.., the things written need to be updated,, cause its different nowadays.. i believe in God,, but i do not follow everything in the bible.. some of the things written in the bible is true and some are like stories, or just written to give emphasis on their faith (the writers..)..
even though i do not believe some of the things that are written in the bible,, i make it to a point that i still have one,, to use as guide in my life,, not as a law book that i need to follow...

Yes, I do believe in God and what the Bible says. Archeologists have found ancient copies of a lot of the books of the Bible and the ancient copies are virtually the same as the Bibles that we read now. This could not have happened over several thousand years without God's Devine help.

I am saying, I am just asking!
I believe but not in all of it.
I believe there are some erros in it. And why? Because it wasn't God himself who wrote the bible, it was the Men, and Men makes mistakes, right? :)

The bible is written by men, yes it could have been inspired by God but it was still written down by men. It was written by men who for the most part had very little education. They wrote things from their perspective and the times they were living in. They also wrote it in their native tongue. Afterwards it was translated and copied by monks. Who knows how it was altered then. So no I don't believe everything in it.

No , I don't believe in everything the bible says . I believe in God but don't believe that the person or persons that wrote the bible only put in fact . I believe that how they felt about something or how they interpreted was also put in there to express their feelings about an event or topic that was taking place . The way one person looks at something and the way another looks as something will generally always be two different way , so for this reason I feel the bible is a way to help us understand and to help us draw strength when we need it but not to be taken litterally .

Yes, I believe the Bible to be totally true. I believe it to be the Word of God and every word in it is God's Truth to us.
I don't understand everything the Bible says or all of God's ways, but I do know by faith that it is true. I know God is perfect and holy and trust Him with everything, including things I don't understand.

No entirely. I think the bible has been passed around and translated so many different times that is bound to be a few errors here and there. I do believe in God. And even though I don't read the bible everyday, I do enjoy many of the stories and passages in it. It is truly inspiring.

I was raised Catholic but now I'm kind of staying away from fanaticism. No religion is perfect, God is. Some things in the Bible I believe since it promotes good, but some are just ridiculous I don't bother much of.

Yes i believe in the Bible. I believe in God. I don't need a tangible evidence. The world is enough to prove that there is a God. I have faith in the bible, and in God.

I don't. I was raised Jewish but I'm also an agnostic. As for God, I don't know whether he exists or not. I haven't seen any solid evidence to prove it either way.
