[{"role": "system", "content": "The Bible (from Koine Greek \u03c4\u1f70 \u03b2\u03b9\u03b2\u03bb\u03af\u03b1, \"t\u00e0 bibl\u00eda\", \"the books\") is a collection of sacred texts or scriptures that Jews and Christians consider to be a product of divine inspiration and a record of the relationship between God and humans. Many different authors contributed to the Bible. What is regarded as canonical text differs depending on traditions and groups; a number of Bible canons have evolved, with overlapping and diverging contents. The Christian Old Testament overlaps with the Hebrew Bible and the Greek Septuagint; the Hebrew Bible is known in Judaism as the Tanakh. The New Testament is a collection of writings by early Christians, believed to be mostly Jewish disciples of Christ, written in first-century Koine Greek. These early Christian Greek writings consist of narratives, letters, and apocalyptic writings. Among Christian denominations there is some disagreement about the contents of the canon, primarily the Apocrypha, a list of works that are regarded with varying levels of respect. Attitudes towards the Bible also differ amongst Christian groups. Roman Catholics, Anglicans and Eastern Orthodox Christians stress the harmony and importance of the Bible and sacred tradition, while Protestant churches focus on the idea of \"sola scriptura\", or scripture alone.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Do you know much about the Bible?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Sort of like the song Dont Know Much by Cynthia Weil and Tom Snow, I don't know much about any religion, I'm open to learn though."}, {"role": "user", "content": "I think people use the term 'religion' to justify so much these days - to me the Bible is the Word of God, pure and simple."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Yeah people have really been finicky with things, criticism of Christianity goes back as far as the roman empire, if not further."}, {"role": "user", "content": "I think that's because some 'Christians' may not really be - not for me to judge, but there is a lot of hypocrisy."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Yeah I know what you meen, a lot of people exhibit hypocrisy in the form of religious and moral beliefs.
