can\'t resist...bah

When it comes to the bible I just think it\'s funny that all the entries are from men, nevermind absolutely nothing directly from Jesus. Stories get exaggerated and I don\'t think I have to convince you that some people are very capable of amplifying the truth just to be heard.
I\'m not saying that Jesus didn\'t exist, I just think he was a guy with some good ideas. Not a super being who could divide the ocean or walk on water. Speaking of holes in the story how about no mention of Mary Magdelene(sp?) being Jesus\' spouse or that he had kids (this is fact) and can be followed through the Merovingian\'s family tree. Instead I believe the bible refers to Mary as a whore, if I\'m not mistaken.
Also, anyone else find it funny that there are a staggering number of coincidences in the bible from other religions dating as far back as you can go? Now you might ask what happened to those religions, why aren\'t they still around? They had their time and most of them lost out to other religions and politics. The pieces were picked up and adapted.
Does this make the bible less credible...in a way.
