If You Are Not Christian Why Would You Go To Hell?
I think that even if you are not christian,you will make it in heaven! How do we know if what the bible says is true? We don't really have a reliable source for that. And just because you are not a follower does not? mean you are not his children.If God truly created us equally, in some way, why would there need to be a reason for going to hell or to heaven? In god's eyes we are his children,and nothing can change that.You shouldn't always trust something you read. I mean how do we know that they are hiding the truth from us with this bible?? How do we know it's not all made up?

The Bible is 100% accurate (i believe) for the following reasons:
1) When the original scribes would write the Bible, they had an original copy, and HAD to write it in a specific way: they had to write one word at a time. Then, they had to take a piece of hair after every letter and use that as a spacer for the next letter. once they finished one word, they HAD to look at the original copy and then copy the next word, using a strand of rope for that space. They were not allowed to copy from memory AT ALL. ONE small mistake meant that whole scroll was destroyed and they had to start from the begining.
2) With the discover of the Dead Sea Scrolls, the time span between the oldest recorded old testiment writing was shorted to at LEAST 50 years since the original writings (which, by the way, is WAY to short for any form of myth to enter a story, since at the time, stories were passed down by oral tradition). The comparison was a 99.9% accuracy match, the .1% belonging to puncuational diffrences (maybe a period where there would've been a comma, ect)
3) there are over 20,000 historical documents that were, again, at the oldest, written 50 years since the original assumed date the Bible was written. To give you an idea of how important that is: the #2 closest book to the bible is Homer's Illiad. the oldest copy we have is around a few thousand years before its estimated writing period and the most ammount of ancient copies we have is 127.
These are just some logical, non biased facts (seriously, they're not) about the Authenticity of the Bible. Believe or disbelieve is up to you
