Hello, my name is Justin Walthers and I’m a sophomore double majoring in Actuarial Science and Statistics. I’m from Herscher, Illinois, which is a really small town about an hour and a half south of Chicago. I decided to take this class for the TI requirement, but also because I’m interested in the history of the Bible.<\/p>\n
I would describe a Bible as a collection of writings that contains everything about a specific religion. It would mainly describe all of the beliefs of the religion, and how someone that practices this religion should live their life.<\/p>\n
I believe that a Bible would be written by many people throughout many years who thought they were inspired to write about their experiences or ideas of a certain religion. These collection of writings then likely would have been put together by historians who have greatly researched the religion.<\/p>\n
When I google “What is a Bible?” many websites, like Wikipedia, come up. Youtube videos also come up. In order for me to tell if the information is credible I would want to know who wrote it, and I would also like to see where all of their information came from.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
