Here are some of the rethinks I may someday have time to work on... maybe. Maybe not.

Are the Bible books reliable?

An Anvil that Has Worn out Many Hammers? [10%]

Notes on the 2008 Greer-Heard Conference on Textual Criticism [5%]

Is the Bible full of Myths?

Yomology – Does Genesis 1 necessarily demand formation of the earth in six literal 24-hour days? [30%]

Was the Story of Jesus just another Dying-Rising God Myth? [idea]

Is the Bible Translated well?

What is the Best English Translation?

Is the Bible inspired? (Was it indirectly authored by God through prophets, apostles, and other writers?)

Is the Bible inspired, inerrant, and authoritative? (What was Christ's view of the Bible?)

Is the Bible interpretable? (Can anyone make it say anything? If the Bible speaks for God, who speaks for the Bible?)

Is the Bible complete? (Which books belong in the Bible and why? What about the rejected books?)
