It's not that I think the Bible is worthless, I simply think of it as a collection of stories written by different men about their interactions with god. But I don't believe that its inerrant, nor the ultimate and final authority.
And of course, I have to point out...I DO have a relationship with God, it's just highly dysfunctional  |
The Bible is your foundation, so what do you stand on.
