“I am a committed Christian. And I believe the Bible is God’s true word and none of these things I hear can sway my opinion. And when it’s different from the Bible, I know it’s just written my man, and man’s opinion doesn’t mean as much to me as God’s opinion.”
Leslie Page, 27, Limington
“I’m one of those people who believes the Bible was written by a person or people. And, as with any story, the facts would have gotten changed from one person to another. So, when I hear things like this, it does sort of conform to what I already believe.”
Russell Barter, 60, Buxton
“I don’t believe any of it. It’s all bull crap. I believe what’s written in the Bible.”

“I’ll read with an open mind, but it doesn’t shake my faith. There are always people who are going to shake Christianity. I don’t know why they live their lives trying to disprove the Bible; what do you gain from that?”
