scary things at CRTC

[Dave Germiquet]

Actually it depends on what you want to believe. There are facts in
the bible that you can go out and prove. Christians call the people
who prove the bible Apologetics.

I personally don't know much about the fact, but there are facts of
people, places, and history that is in the bible.

It all stems from which source or original source on the basis of your faith.
