About

Bible Curious is an exploration into sacred scripture, driven by curiosity. The population of planet Earth is 33% Christian. It's 24% Muslim, and the Qur'an does acknowledge the Bible as Holy Scripture. Between these two faiths, that's over half of Earth's population. If I was an alien coming to this planet for the first time, and I wanted to play a game of “Take Me To Your Leader,” it wouldn't take long before I found this book in my hands. If I want to understand this planet, planet Earth, I need to know what's in this text. To ignore it, or to dismiss it casually, is to cast aside the very underpinnings of western civilization, which is the dominant culture of this planet. I mean, aren't you at least curious about what it actually says? I know I am.

DAY 15 (Genesis 9-12): After the Great Flood, God promised Noah, "never again will I destroy all living creatures as I have done." He established a new covenant with Noah and his descendants, expecting them to reestablish civilization upon principles of justice. However, wayward Mankind quickly falls back into rebellion and attempts to build a great tower in Babylon which would reach the heavens, and Yahweh must plan yet another reset for mankind, this time through the great patriarch Abram, who would later become Abraham.
