There is no need to be patronising or insulting. I know well the Bible, you patently don't, so best you refrain from such posts, because unless you understand that the Bible by nature of the work is not the same as the Quran. Christians believe the Bible to be the inspired word of God, you can look up what that means.
Firstly, the Bible is not just one single book. It is actually a collection of 66 books, which is called the canon of scriptures. These 66 books contain a variety of genres....history, poetry, prophecy, wisdom literature, letters, and apocalyptic just to name a few.
Second, these 66 books were written by 40 different authors. These authors came from a variety of backgrounds.. shepherds, fishermen, doctors, kings, prophets, and others. And most of these authors never knew one another personally. Third, these 66 books were written over a period of 1500 years. Yet again, this is another reason why many of these authors never knew or collaborated with one another in writing these books.
Fourth, the 66 books of the Bible were written in 3 different languages. Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic.. a reflection of the historical and cultural circumstances in which each of these books were written.
And finally, these 66 books were written on 3 different continents... Africa, Asia, and Europe. This is a testament to the varied historical and cultural circumstances of God’s people.
Think about the above realities... 66 books, written by 40 different authors, over 1500 years, in 3 different languages, on 3 different continents. What’s more, this collection of books shares a common storyline- the creation, fall, and redemption of God’s people, a common theme- God’s universal love for all of humanity, and a common message- salvation is available to all who repent of their sins and commit to following God with all of their heart, soul, mind and strength. In addition to sharing these common themes, these 66 books contain no historical errors or contradictions... Contrary to your belief.
So so before you start criticising the Bible it's you who need understand better what you are criticising, otherwise the claims you make come across as nonsense. I would not criticise the Quran because I do not feel I have the depth of knowledge to do so, besides we are taught to respect the religious beliefs of others. I think the Quran also teaches muslims to be respectful of others beliefs.. At least I believe that is what your Prophet taught.
Peace to you.
