The Bible is always relevant to any age, at any time, under any condition.

The Bible is really a remarkable book when one considers that it has an appeal to all cultures, ages and classes of people, whether children 4, 5 and 6 years old or people 80-90 years old on their death bed. It has never lost its appeal to the intellectuals. They spend as much time trying to destroy it and get rid of it as they do making a living. And it has never lost its appeal to the poetic, the dramatist, to the literary figure or the artistic people. It has a message for you if you make under 100 dollars a week and it has a message for you if you make over 500 dollars a week. It appeals to the highest men, the geniuses, the most brilliant men that have ever lived, like the Isaac Newton's and it appeals to the lowest men, the marginalized and the disenfranchised. It is a universal book. It is one book that never gets out of date and never gets old fashioned. A book that has affected and transformed the lives of people on every part of the globe across time like nothing else. The only thing that has cured the worst of the worst in society, like psychopaths, who modern science and psychology still haven't even figured out. A book of history, law, science, poetry, prophecy, etc etc. A book like no other book that has been written by 40 different authors over a period of 1,600 years on three different continents

One of my favorite is how the bible repeatedly mentions mockers and how the wicked will spew hatered until the end of time. Well when you look at the comments on any religious post the 4000 year old prophecy comes back to life.

@SW-User yes, youre certainly right there. Ive been on this site a while and received hate, insults and mocking just because of my faith. Every time it just confirms the truth of the bible that we are in a spiritual war, Satan doesnt like it if you share your faith

@TheWildEcho you have to wonder if its not satan what causes this seemingly involuntarily action. Why wouod an educated intellectual feel to need to resort to middle school bully tactics if its not satan working through them.

It's a great source of family values.

"Besides, she really is my sister, the daughter of my father though not of my mother; and she became my wife."

The Bible!? How dare you speak of that book of lies!? Only the Holy and Perfect Gliberoo is the true word of our creator, Farblesnozz! For it is written in Tihsllub 1:1-5:

1. And Farblesnozz spake unto the people, saying, "Transcribe My words, and hold them sacred and true, for they are perfect and holy. 2. And you shall call the book which you will write the Holy And Perfect Gliberoo, for it is My perfect message." 3. And one man, Streborbob, did take up the task of copying the sacred words of Farblesnozz, though it took him sixty-nine years, 4. and lo, when Streborbob had finished, he found he had not aged a day. 5. For this is the power of Farblesnozz.
