The Bible makes useful compost as the thin pages degrade rather nicely when mixed in with horse manure.
what was said in those days was important, important enough to write down and respected by gentleman at the time, the thing is people wanted credit for what was said or who said it in the bible, and they also wanted to hide some knowledge
so the bible is heavily veiled
names are changed, names are changed to hide knowledge
some truth is in there, but youd have to be a language expert to really decipher it
its like when you learn anything new thats interesting-
-the story gets passed down
-the storys changed but much of the truth is there
-the characters names are changed to give credit to those telling the story or to hide identity
