If nobody ever wrote down the events of what happened on 9/11...?

and we, as a nation, just passed stories of the event around orally for the next 500 years, before writing them down....how much different would the stories be in 2507 from the actual event in 2001?

Don't the Bible stories work pretty much the same way???

Um, Even with all of the writing, video, and pictures how much of the truth is known?

You have the Gov putting out their story with their spin, the conspiracy theorists doing their thing and the Right Religious Republicans trying to blame it on Iran or Syria to justify expanding their Middle East Oil adventure.

The event is already made into a myth.

Nobody knows the actual truth of it and likely never will.

and Roman / Greek myths - and American Indian lore....It is amazing how well a verbal record can be kept by those who cherish the truth and telling of it.
yep, but I think that the bible was just a book like harry potter that got so famous caveman started worshiping it.
haha.. A flying purple monkey came from space and took out the WTC..
Yes, with one notable exception.

The Bible "stories" were inspired by GOD.
It depends on the event, creation and the flood were way more than 500 years away from when Moses could have written about them. The gospels were written about 70 or more years ater the events.

But yes, the same principle applies, the story gets added to and changed.
well yes, but the bible also stole from already existing stories that were written down.
Undoubtedly, some of the Bible stories from the Beginning had been passed down for alot longer than 500 years before Moses put them together for His people. Of course, Moses had something the Sumerians didn't have...He had God's guidance.

One must realize that Moses is trying to recount events from the very beginning of time, but his main focus is on the history of the Israelites.

On the other hand, it is to be noted that archeology has shown over and over again that the Bible is accurate in it's history. Whether you realize it or not, much of our modern understanding of ancient history is rooted in the Bible.

At the risk of shocking my Christian brothers and sisters, it is the total message of the Bible that is important, not the accuracy of the tiny details. So Kings and Chronicles may disagree about the exact number of horses and chariots some king had, as someone pointed out the other day. Some scribe somewhere miscopied a number.

The most important message of the Bible is the love of God, as it is embodied in Christ...
