Bible Note: Hi, Chochma; Based on your profile, you seem to believe in almost everything. That is the logical equivalent of believing in nothing. The problem with alleged sequels to the Bible (the most famous being the Qur'an and the Book of Mormon) is that to believe them is to disbelieve the Bible they claim as their basis. Both of these books say, in effect, "my foundation is the Bible; however, the Bible is wrong". What kind of doublespeak is that? If the Bible is true, the sequels are false; if a sequel is true, the Bible and the other sequels are false. Belief in what these books say is akin to a famous logical conundrum: "The next sentence is true. The previous sentence is false." If the first is true, the second is also true; but if the second is true, then the first is false. If the first is false, then so is the second and if it's false then the first is true. And so it goes. Perhaps you can make sense of these sentences. I can't. Likewise, I can't make sense of a book that says the Bible is true and then contradicts it.
