Based on the underlined, is it your position that there is "truth" that contradicts the bible? If so, would you mind elaborating on that?Truth seems to be what most people are comfortable with... Some will only go by what is 'in the bible' and disregard 'truth' from outside sources. Some have preconceived notions of 'truth' based on a bias etc.
Absolutely not. I appreciate your answers.Did I just muddy it up even more?![]()
