I do agree however that Halloween isn't as harmless a celebration as they make it out to be, I can imagine the only other people who enjoy this holiday more than kids would bepedophiles

But subjective accounts from the "what they heard and what they learned" cannot be Gods word, no matter the wisdom from the texts it isn't divine in origine. Especially if its from many different sources, varies, and holds contradictions, and changes through time like broken telephone

Thank you! Youre so much better at explaining than I am. 💕

Let me just say in reference to those who think the bible is not reat. One the face that we have a bible at all demonstrates that the bible is real. The reason why so meany contradict it is simple to understand. Meany different peaple have written the books of the bible each with there own different account of what they saw and heard, thats what makes it real. Also the time difference between the writing of the books sometimes quite a distance apart. Also there were those who were not with jesus who equally gave witness to what they heard and what they learned. And its because of this we know so much about jesus. But one issue in the bible that has never changed and that is jesus dieing on the cross for our salvation. So i thank God that things are written in different ways because it teaches me more about him.

Are you willing to still have a discussion where we both tell our sides of the story? Even better, are younwilling to listen? Becuase if you are, i will be willing as well.

Umm ok

Youre telling me what you think is true, and im telling you what i think is true.

I'm being honest.

Im sorry but it kind of feels like you are.

I'm not being rude

Well you vant believe everything you hear either. Question, have you ever prayed to know if the bibke is true?

Please, i am not trying to be rude and would rather you try not to be rude as well. I am trying to have a friendly discussion.

The bible is no different. It's a book written by man.

Have you ever heard the phrase "you can't believe everything you read" ?

Yes. I'm just a big dumb idiot. Please continue to explain. Because clearly you are gods right hand man and you know FOR A FACT that what you are being told is true.

Oof sorry about all those errors

The reason there are so many versions is because the same book was translated differently. The most accurate one, at least in my knowledge, is the King James version because that was the very first one translated into englosh by people who spoke both english and hebrew. Because there are so many different translations, and different religions use a different version, that creates conflict among them because they think that it is a certain way while the other tjink its another way. But thts bevause of thendifferetn translations. I believe everyone would be better off if they just prayed to know wjich version is the best translated, but sadly there are some religious leaders only there for the money, so they make sure that they are convinced one version is true and thatbthey contradict the others.

Ok, its clear you need some explaining done. Yes the bible was written by man, but the men wjo wrote it were inspired by God. By the Holy Spirit.

And we would not have this whole "new testament" crap

If it was truth, there would only be one version.

Contradictions across religions that use the same book?

And if it was real, then why do many versions? Why so many

BECAUSE IT WAS WRITTEN BY MAN!!!! It's a book that has been manipulated over and over again.

But what makes you believe that it isnt?

God is real and so is Satan. The bible is not

But that's not the bible. That's prayer. That's talking to a higher power. I was specifically saying the bible itself isn't truth.

I dont have to be there to know it is true. Have you ever heard of praying? Asking if it is true? The feelings i get are not from this world. Only a being beyond any power you can imagine can help you feel the amount of joy, overwhelming joy, and peace. I cant really descirbe it, but thats the best i can do.

You don't know anything for a fact. You only know what you have been told

So you were around when the bible first came into existance?

What makes you think the bible isnt true? I know for an absolute fact that it is. I have had way too many experiences to know that it is.

The bible isn't real. It's created by man and manipulated by man. The bible isn't the truth.

Actually the turm is All Hallows' Eve and referres to a worship of some king. The only one person worthy of worship is Jesus the son of God. For example All Hail to the name of Jesus. There are hundreds of examples in the bible where Jesus sais that the object of our worship should be to Him. Matt 5 13-16

There you go! Celebrate how you want! Do you and enjoy it! Be safe, always! And enjoy your time with friends and family.

I'd rather just stay home because Halloween can be the most dangerous day of the year. So many kids are kidnapped. Especially girls like me. As I don't support the dark side of the holiday, I am more than happy to support the bright side of dressing up and having fun with friends and family.

So I'm just saying, if you hate how Halloween is celebrated, then celebrate it how it should be. Celebrate those who have passed that you have loved. Let their spirits return to earth for the night to be celebrated

Halloween is actually based off of all Hallows Eve. It's the one night that the dead can come back. It's really in America where is become this "thing" .. But in other cultures, Halloween is for celebrating the ones you've loved who have passed

I thought I was the only one! Thank you for spreading the word! 💕
