Overview

The Bible and its traditional interpretation have dominated western civilization for two millenia. Is it possible in a rapidly changing world of technology to continue finding relevance for our daily life in a book written more than two thousand years ago? If we take Scripture seriously, can we interpret the acts and persons of the Bible based on 21st century knowledge of history, sociology, and science? In Theologics an attempt is made to do just that. Using examples of well known stories of the Old and the New Testament the traditional fairytale image is set aside and a modern, logic-based interpretation of events and presons is suggested. How old was Methuselah really? Why should we tithe? When did sin come into the world, if life began billions of years ago, long before the dinosaurs? Would you really be proud if your children did what Jesus would do? Some of the conclusions are surprising, maybe even shocking - in any case, the examples given open a fresh look at the bestselling book of all times.
