[Tenacious 1]

I am troubled by the overtone of stupidity = gullibility. Maybe I am being over sensitive or skeptical of a journalist/scientist/researcher. The more educated you are, the more likely you are to believe in this stuff?

I believe, as all Christians should, Christ did rise from the dead and make himself seen by several. It is, the basis of our faith and the miracle which launched Christianity in its present form.

I also believe there are many things in the bible which can be explained but are miracles no less. Did Moses live to be 700 years old, or does 700 represent the number of generations he outlasted in the peoples original spoken text?

I believe the Old Testament to be more representative and symbolic than the New Testament.

Read the whole article again. At first I had the same reaction as you did but at the end of the article it basically asks the question "If most people believe in many of the stories as fact, then why are they so God-adverse in the personal and family lives?". It is a good question.

Believers need to live the Gospel, not just believe in it.
