It seems people start the religious debate with what they believe, having been told that the bible is fact and not to question what is presented to you. In all fairness isn’t that a belief in absolute blind teaching and the quickest way to show children how to accept without question.
What sort of example is that to our young, up and coming next generation?
Even our teaching system takes children into school and right from the start teaches the bible and church attendance as if it was without question an absolute fact. How wrong can that be?
Surely schools should only teach provable facts or subjects that can be used to show how to examine a concept without mindless brainwashing. Bible stories can show good use of morals but must not be given as acceptable historical facts, as good as the stories may appear they cannot be quoted as factual.

Hi! Interesting blog but unfortunately I have to inform you that the Bible has not been proven wrong, and in fact you will find other historical documents proving it to be TRUTH.
All the best!
