What do you think of the History Channel's special, The Bible?

I didn't watch it. And the bible is not a historical document. So it really doesn't belong on the history channel.

Its a special alright, special treatment

I think it's pretty neat how it reenacts some of the famous battles featured in the Bible. However, the events which led up to the violence are not specified, so people who are unfamiliar with the Bible may think Christianity and Judaism are nothing more than violent bloodbaths.

The stories in The Bible lose their power when presented as a straight chronological narrative.

I loved Bible movies when I was a youngster and they influenced me when I was older. Perhaps they’ll have the same effect on those unfamiliar with Judaeo-Christianity.

Showing Jesus takes away the divine mystery away from the Son of God or the Word. It’s always best to show the reaction of people around him.

Laughable...

It's like Bible Lite...

They have added things that are not in the Bible, like ninja angels, and have glossed over things that are in it, like the battle of Jericho.....

IMHO

I have no interest in it, as a Christian. It's nothing more than union labor.

I glad someone had the nerve! In this messed up politically correction world we live in!! Over 3 million tuned in last week!! GO GOD!!

Quite hilarious. Dig this - the History Channel called the Cain & Abel story "believed to be the first murder ever."

Yeah, believed by 5 year olds.

I like how Satan looks like Obama. Must be that liberal programing you keep hearing about.

I don't do TV - turns the brain into mutton.

It's cool.
