Everyone knows that the only correct version of the bible is the King James Version. All previous and subsequent versions are heretical as the King James Bible was specifically divinely inspired and fixed the errors of the original writers to make the work fully in line with the true word of the LORD free from Papist revision and Greek error.

Harlan Ellison told the story of Hubbard writing his Scientology poo poo on a radio show once and it was basically this but with more amphetamines. Dude locked himself in a hotel room with a roll of butcher paper feeding into the typewriter and a ton of speed.

One of them was the founder of Mormonism, and quills and ink came up in the "lost" book he "found" despite quills not being invented for several more centuries. But they're what ye olde writers used, so there!

Same method as Philip K Dick used to write. Two handfuls of amphetamine pills, one handfull of valium, 48 hours at the typewriter, 24 hours of sleep. Repeat for corrections/revisions if necessary.

And that's how you write 11 books in a year

the idea is that God, who is also Jesus, wrote the Bible in the sense that it's his word completely, not in the sense that Jesus literally sat down with a pen and wrote down the bible

Seems like a bit of a stretch to make it fit. So I guess he didn't literally sit down and write out the bible, but instead figuratively wrote it? Still doesn't make sense.

Sorry I'm not trying to HURRATHEISM derail, I'm just laughing at the ridiculous movie. The no speeko greeko guy is speaking about a specific book that jesus already knows about writing and it really seems like he's referring to jesus having directly written it. The dialog wasn't "hey that book you wrote in the future using a few different dudes is real popular". Jesus didn't indicate he had any knowledge of the future, but was familiar with the book greeko said he wrote.

Yeah that's dumb as hell, most of the new testament is understood to have been written like 10+ years after Jesus's death, it literally didn't exist in 33 AD

Still I don't think the cognitive dissonance is that bad, if you think in the mindset that Jesus is literally god. The Bible is his book, so it makes sense to talk about it that way.

Plus almost every book starts with something like “Johns letter to the X church” or lists it’s origin

The story of Scientology is all sorts of hosed up fascinating. My understanding is that Hubbard financed his early Scientology stuff with money he pinched from Jack Parsons (rocket engineer and occultist, a job description you don't see much these days):
