I'm not sure how long it was in human history before the bible came about, but what about the things people did before they knew about the bible, before the bible existed, they could have done what ever they wanted right, because Jesus was not around yet, they didnt know God exists(if God does!?), so isnt that a flaw in the whole argument for religion, the fact that all those people before the bible existed could have done things which were considered later in history to be sins?

People "before the Bible" went straight to Hell when they died, and God decided that sucked, so he sent Jebus to save those alive at 0 AD and after, but the people that lived before, well, that was just too bad. It was their own fault really for being alive too early.

People before the bible lived their ordinary lives, hunting, gathering and making family trees and passing down the tribal lore between generations.

Some person got tired of all the legends being exagerated by the verbal story tellers adding in their own ideas to spice up the stories. So, they made up their own stories, painted them onto parchment scrolls as their version of the reported facts and called it a bible.

Ever since then, those scrolls have been pointed to as original facts regardless of the same penchant for translaters adding in their own ideas to spice up and simplify the stories they created by piecing together rotten pieces of parchment into book form.

People today go on doing the same thing they did before the bible, living their ordinary lives hunting, gathering, making family trees and passing down the tribal lore between generations. Some use the written stories in the bible as an aid, others don't.

It was crazy. Gay marriages, and then it was actually WRONG for men to touch little boys in their no-no spots. So then God created priests, which made being a pedophile cool again.

There were no people before the bible!

Adam and eve were the fore fathers of manking.

Then they sinned and eve had seven sons.

where did the rest if us come from then?

well........ Eve must have been a horny stay at home houswife and did it with her sons.

But that was before the bible so its OK.
