Do People Really Understand What the Bible Means?

People interpret the bible through their own basises and personal motives.  In order to truly understand the bible one needs to be an expert on the lives and times of the people who wrote it. This includes understanding the colloquial phrases, politics, family life, humor the architecture, etc, etc.  Very few people have such expertise.

We shall discuss ways that individuals misunderstand, misuse and/or abuse biblical content.  Examples of such occurrences will be explored.  This will be done through a thought-provoking and yet humorous approach. Join in the learning and fun.
