Publisher's Synopsis
Biblical Events Told Truthfully and with Compelling Critical Commentary: Not the Shammed Trash of the Testaments discusses the difference between fact and fiction in the Bible, between truth and fabrication.The heart of this controversial yet incisive book explores the absurd discrepancies between reality and the Testaments of the Bible.The author was inspired to write this book by "the plethora of willfully ignorant Christians who merely read the Bible but do no thinking about it. They go from word to word without questioning anything. Their reasoning, or lack of it, is that whatever is in the Bible is true because whatever in the Bible is true: the logic of an imbecile. For example, they never ask who is narrating Genesis or what 'beginning' is referenced."Born in a coal mining town in West Virginia, H. G. Hastings-Duffield is a retired professor emeritus at Central Michigan University. He spent thirty of his thirty-five-year teaching career at three universities in Michigan. The author retired in 1997 and now lives in Atlanta. This is his twenty-second book.
