If all religions have manipulated the word of God for their own benefit wouldn't that be true blasphemy? [Spirituality & Religion]

Man may want to change God’s message, but it’s God’s message that changes the heart of man. The main theme shall never change, and that’s that we all need Jesus, in order to get to Heaven.

Yes it would be.
The church I used to go to had of course a church doctrine. When I found it wasn't parallel to scripture I questioned them about it. They took offense and said this is what we believe. This is our doctrine. I said so you're putting doctrine before the Bible. No. I left.

I don't worry about what religions do or say, as they do not have a monopoly on the truth. We can all read and understand for ourselves.
Reminding us not to believe what others tell us the Bible means Peter wrote:
2 Peter 1:20-21 (KJV)
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

They just tried to help people live a righteous life. But they didn't know people will become so much smarter and logical as they are today.

@ABCDEF7 they didn't try to, they did and still do. And no, they fooled them in the name of God.

@JovialPlutonian Yes, it happened, but I guess the new generation is far more smarter.

@CopperCicada Like i said, cross-referencing events and documents is the key in any historical evidence. Your demands are impossible, hence you wont have the answer. You're not looking for an answer in the first case though, like i said you're only trying to confirm your own theories, and that's why you set this crucial restriction on everyone.

@MartinTheFirst I guess I just had better evangelists in my life. Be well.

Manipulate how?
JovialPlutonian · 36-40, M
@karysma it never does, manipulation is subconscious, that's the idea for you to feel they're helping you so you follow them.

@JovialPlutonian I guess it depends on how you look at it
