Where Do Atheists Believe The Bible Came From?

GOOD ANSWERS HERE, SO I’LL ADD ONE POINT OTHERS SEEM TO MISS It is a collection of children’s and campfire stories from an era of profound poverty, ignorance and violence, and most of the new testament was an attempt to rebel against the roman empire the same way that the primitive world attempted to adopt the scripture of Marxism, and the same way that the modern world is attempting to adopt the scripture of Postmodernism as a reaction to science and economics.

The fascinating part of all this is that the ten commandments are a pretty good system of property rights upon which you can start to build a complex civilization on individual rather than familial or tribal property rights – which were necessary for land holders, but not for migratory peoples.

This difference in jewish and christian ethics persist today: the land holders and the traders still have different ethical principles and this manifests itself in our voting for different parties with different moral codes.
