Science of the Bible
SCORE: 57
There are going to be all kinds of spoilers in my review of the
Science of the Bible DVD. I was pretty excited to find this DVD at
McKay’s in our 2024 trip for $2.95. After watching this show I
understand why the price was so low. The name of this DVD is highly
misleading. There are some scientific portions within Science of the
Bible. Too much of this show is presenting wild theories as if they are
fact. I had to listen very carefully to hear words like: “maybe, could
be, might have been, possibly, and more.” There are plenty of “experts”
that give their opinion on something no matter how outlandish.
A big issue with Science of the Bible is it takes some from the Bible
and then ignores other parts. How the cross was constructed makes some
sense, but we do not know for certain. Then parts of the Holy Bible are
attacked based on how one word may be translated differently. Was that
even the original language it was in? Are we debating a translation of a
translation? Maybe there was not a specific word in that language, or a
way to express it as we would in our day and age. The Holy Spirit is
largely ignored in Science of the Bible as well.
The same logic is not even applied throughout Science of the Bible. For
example the “experts” give their opinions on when the New Testament
books were written. It was forty or seventy years later so it may not be
accurate. But then heresy documents written one hundred and fifty years
later should be believed. Why did the logic reverse based on the
content? The same goes the skepticism in Science of the Bible. There are
skeptics of what is in the Holy Bible in Science of the Bible. They are
not as skeptical of anything that attacks the Holy Bible or the church.
Why is their skepticism only one direction?
There are three discs in Science of the Bible. It takes five hundred and
thirty-three minutes to watch all ten episodes on the DVDs that make up
Science of the Bible. The episodes are around the fifty minute mark. The
issues families can have with Science of the Bible are lack of attire,
enticement to lust, nudity, violence, blood, and more. Demons are
discussed and generally considered to be just mental illness. I find
that extremely dangerous. Science of the Bible barely touches upon the
spiritual. Science of the Bible makes it sound like Christianity morphs
into the culture it is in.
