One of the principle arguments against Christianity is how a perfect writing, the Bible, is used to create so many cults. It it were perfect and defined, only one religion would spring from its pages.
But it has fostered many religions; the cult members trash each other, claim superiority over other cults, and then claim the high ground is theirs after waging such poor behavior. They do not set a good example for those who seek spiritual guidance. It is like our political system!
That's just a silly argument on its face. EVERY religion has split into various groups UNLESS it had a political entity (or entities) forcing people not to dissent.
Let's apply your logic to another document...the US Constitution. "If it were perfect and defined only one religion [interpretation] would spring up from its pages." Why then, if the Constitution were valid, EVERYONE would agree on what it says, and golly, we could do away with courts and judges, as how to interpret and enforce the law would be equally clear to everyone, right? Of course NOT, that's a silly assertion.In a free society, people will interpret and believe all kinds of different things using the same documentary source. Of course it doesn't make them all equally VALID, it just shows that freedom allows for people to think what they want.
The same applies to the bible--religious freedom allows for religious dissent and religious differences--which is probably why something like 90% of the world's Christian denominations/sects/cults STARTED in the USA, as we traditionally have led the world in religious freedom.
