I was thinking about writing a book on religion, I was wondering if any of you could help me out. Maybe questions you have about the bible, or faith, so I can get ideas on what people want to know, or have questions about so I can research them for my book. Anyone interested?

Well I guess that would depend on what aspect you wanted to write about religion. Remember religion is a set of rituals or rules meant to bring you closer to some larger being. Not everyone considers their faith a "religion" per say so you might be more specific.

Here are some questions for you:
Why do people believe that the bible is perfect?
Most christians think it's perfect & shouldn't be questioned, why? Why can't they see past & realize that it was simply INSPIRED BY GOD, not written by God. HUMANS, imperfect, sinful beings wrote it & put it into their own words. Why do christians refuse to acknowledge this?
Why do people insist on giving God/dess human pettiness such as hate, vengence, wraith & jealousy?
Doesn't the bible say that LOVE is none of these things, yes it does. If god is perfect love then he can't be imperfect.
Why does the bible contradict itself so much?
I'm not even talking about the old VS new testament, it contradicts itself in the same in some places, even the same book.
Why has the church been trying to cover up, and get rid of the devine feminine?

I don't know if this is what you're looking for, but I know more than one person right now who is trying to find a particular Church to join. These people are Christian but don't know which branch of Christianity "fits" for them. I think it would be interesting to maybe see a side by side comparison of the beliefs and rituals of say Catholics/Lutherans/Methodists/Baptists,etc. I don't know if something like this already exists or not, but it might be something to think about. Good luck to you! This is a very inspiring thing of you to do.
