Well actually the Bible claims to be the Word of God. Thus it is infallible.

Why would God lie??Why would He need too?? The Bible was written by men, but given by the Divine Inspiration of God. If the Bible is not true then God is false, Jesus never rose from the dead and our faith is in vain. If you belive in the resurrection of Jesus from the dead then you can trust him for your own salvation. If not then all is truly in vain and no one has any hope of eternal life. God says in the Bible to test him. Try it...he always delivers on his promises. Merry Christmas....

"Well actually the Bible claims to be the Word of God. Thus it is infallible." and "If the Bible is not true than God is false."

That, right there, is the biggest mistake Christians make when trying to convince non-Christians that Christianity is the correct and/or true religion.

In defining something - anything - you never use the word or item you are trying to define as part of the definition. Non-Christians do not believe in the Christian Bible, so using the Christian Bible as a means to convince non-Christians that Christianity is the only way is not only ineffective - it is ludicrously disingenuous,...at best. You are a Christian: Great. I am not: Just as Great.

For the record, I do believe in God, at least in the form of a higher power/creative force. Further, I have friends who run the gamut - from Christians to Jews to athiests, and just about everything in-between.

As NCPAC said we both believe in A Superior Being, anyone that thinks that someone didn't put us here isn't thinking correctly. All i'm saying is that if a man writes something down then it's possible that it contains mistakes or possibly a little fiction has been added to go along with the truths. Please don't take this as an attack against Christianity, my loyalties lie with Christians above all other Religions. However i'm just not sure that I believe everything that's written in the good book simply because it was written by man.
