The Bible like you mentioned was made and written by men, who thought that the world needed something to believe in and seek comfort in and also they thought that the world needed some rules and regulations(the ten commandments.) these men may have been right in their teachings, maybe there really was a god and a Jesus, but who can be really sure. and even if there was a Jesus, maybe he was just a mortal man who did good things, but not miracles, maybe he was just another human being like us, but was holy and just in the things he did and therefore became a leader for people to follow making him a person to look up to and worship. And sorry that I'm bringing a movie into this, but even though the movie is the most stupid piece of crap ever it makes you wonder, so "Dogma" states that the Bible and the people who wrote it are racist against women and people of color. Which in my opinion is true, because do you ever read of a black man being a disciple or a priest? No. Also women are held in the positions of slaves almost, Obviously besides Mary, and her cousin Elizabeth who was John the Babtists mom. When you have mortal men writing a bunch of stories then you are bound to get biggatry and sexist people which I am sure that God and Jesus would not approve of. So it makes me wonder if God or Jesus even approved of the Bible? Or if they thought that it was just a silly little book written for no purpose other than to make poeple believe in something so their lives could be complete. Also here is something i always found interesting, Jesus is always portrayed as a fair skinned, brown hair frail looking man right? Well do you think Jesus really looked like that? the answer is no, because think of the place he was born and the places that he was raised. Think real hard do you honestly thank that Jesus would be a white man and not an middle eastern looking man with tan skin and dark features? nope i do not belive that Jesus was white at all, but I belive that the world made him that way, because then he was more gentle and more loving looking and the world is obsessed with making people the way they want them to look in order to please the masses, because if Jesus was shown as a middle eastern man do you really belive that Tommy and Susie's parents would let them worship him? so the men that wrote these stories also changed the appearance of Jesus to satisfy the racist people in the world.

Yep thats my take

agree with me or not i don't care

agreed.
I think Jesus did exist, he was a man.
but the stuff he supposedly did is made up, exaggerated, stretched, and complete bullshit.
he was prolly a wise man who lead people to be good, but he never performed miracles.
