yea.. i would have to say most of my friends are atheists.. i want to join a bible study group at my school.. because for me right now there are too many questions about the bible.. and until i can have a full 100%.. not 99.9.. but 100% confidence in what I'm reading.. i will devote my entire life to studying it. I have to be honest.. when people tell me that "the devil" is trying to do this or that.. or the fact that evolution and the fossils across the world is some kind of handiwork of the devil, is just silly. If there was this kind of character, i can't see a God allowing him to deceive people.. when life itself already has many obstacles
i don't mean to offend anybody.. like it told my friends.. i just want the truth in its entirety and I'm not afraid to voice out my opinion.
thanks again for the replies.. i appreciate it.

Theology / Debate / 10 C's from the book of the dead?

All my friends believe the 10 commandments was taken out of the egyptian book of the dead. I thought no way.. until i saw the similarities. At this point for me, i find it very difficult to believe God inspired Moses to write the commandments when it was already written years before and just taken from that. What are your thoughts? I would love to hear them.

Theology / Debate / Gospel of Mark written before or after...

I accepted Jesus this year.. but when it comes to the bible.. i'm unsure of what to think. I was watching the history channel about the Temple in Jerusalem. It's amazing how massive the Temple is. 9 stories high, about 30 football field lengths. To think Jesus said not one stone would stand ontop of each other ( ofcourse the base still stands to this day ) but the temple itself didnt stand.
But as the show continued.. The next topic was "Jesus prophesied the collapse of the Temple in the gospel of mark.. but was mark really written before or after the temple was destroyed. Many scholars believe it was written after" something like that
This made me think.. can we trust the gospel of mark.. or any other gospels? how can we be sure it really was written before the temple was destroyed?
i'm new to the bible.. and i tend on studying it as much as i can
