Can you tell me the difference between inspired documentation or non-inspired documentation?

It is interesting - because on Booker (a Radio show in my region) they were giving out devils tickets on a Bible quiz.

The bible quiz was - they read a quote and people had to tell if it was in the bible or if it was bs.

Their hit ratio wasn't so great.

I think so. Inspired documentation testifies on behalf of truth without doing the actual experiment that the world of [scientific] discovery is hamstrung by, and at the same time finds enlightenment in. This would be when, where and how science extrapolates the primary premiss from omniscience in their/our effort to make the light of common day seem brighter for us [cave dwellers].

The above would be why you would call religion a human invention while I say that the idea to invent religion was inspired and therefore not human . . . which can only be true if the idea to invent religion is part of a larger whole wherein all the answers with regard to the meaning of life are contained, and religion is meant to be the means to that end instead of just being a social club without end.

Remember here that the cloak of Peter is quilted from the large fish that they caught in the celestial sea whereupon they have managed built this Ivory Tower from where they continue to proclaim their lofty ideals to us down below.

Indeed [David], much like birds we must invent our own light by directing the vibes we receive to light up our life, lest we recede into darkness and die. It is out of this same light that Ivory Towers are built from where they should be allowed to speak on behalf of light, lest we recede into darkness and built cathedrals of darkness that soon come to rest at the bottom of the ocean for wide-eyed fishes to query about.

It originated from word of mouth and evolved into written literature, it was created as storys and became a belief system.
