First Burn Your Bible - How Christians Misuse Scripture (Paperback)

Does anyone really understand the Bible? What are the problems of translation in general, and translating the Bible in particular? Are there any good Bible translations? Has the Church misrepresented and misused its scriptures? How Christian is Christianity? What is a Christian? Are scriptures dangerous? In this no-holds-barred investigation of how Christianity uses its sources, the author invites you to take a new look at the Bible. You may just find that everything you thought you knew about the Bible is wrong. Whether you are familiar with the Bible or have given up on it, a fresh look may reveal another, different Bible. The author is a philologist who wrote "First Burn Your Bible" in the belief that the questions above -- neglected by other writers -- are more important than ever in a pluralistic society ...and he does not advocate that you burn your Bible, although the book may convince you that it is time to buy a Bible you can actually understand.
