I really should let you have the last word, but I do have to tell you I HAVE READ THE BIBLE that is why I know wherefore I speak. I have also read many of the worlds philosophers and I have almost always been able to understand the meaning of what they wrote the first time I read it. I just don't trust any book (the Bible) that is written in (or translated into) English that someone else has to tell me what was meant by what was written, e.g. as in Bible Study.

PS: I didn't know that we had to accept either the Bible or pholsophy and/or that one seems to negate the other, which is what you seem to imply in your final paragraph.
