From Jan: Was Past History as WRONG as MODERN history since WW2? – I don’t think so

[Someone sent me a meme that said if modern history is wrong, imagine how wrong past history is. Jan]

This was my reply:

I don’t think this is a valid point. There have been centuries during which to analyse past history plus extremely advanced tools exist that have been used to find out what really went on. It’s not the same as the modern world where Liberals is using modern tools, modern methods and modern power in order to distort things. It is modern times and modern history that is badly distorted. The past is not the same. The sophistication of the folks in the past is nothing compared to the knowledge, methods and high tech that we have now. We know more about how things actually worked in the past than the people of that time knew. It is us in the MODERN TIMES, RIGHT HOW, who are being fooled and conned. What happened in history has been tremendously accurately studied using multiple sources and SUPER ADVANCED METHODS that reveal all kinds of things. A great example is the BIBLE. Everything is known about how it was assembled. Christians are the only ones who don’t know about it.

The only place I would agree with you on is THE BIBLE. The Bible is the only thing where modern Bible believing Christians think they know what went on, whereas, scientists, historians, and academics have figured out everything, and they know what went on, but it’s the believing Christians themselves who have no clue what went on. The story of the Bible vs how the Bible was actually assembled and how things were really done are 2 completely different things. The vast majority of Christians prefer to just BELIEVE rather than actually study what academics know, and what archaeology really shows. We know the exact answers of how Christianity came into being and how those texts were written and where they came from. And it does not match what Christians BELIEVE.
