    “I don’t like Christianity, therefore the Bible is not canon to itself.”

      Current Bible has been rewritten a bunch of times by different people. Definitely not canon.

        It’s not a millenia-long game of whisper down the lane. We have access to the original text. And we still cross-reference different translations to be sure.

          Uh, aren’t the original texts that were compiled to make the bible long gone? What “original texts” are you referring to? A cursory search couldn’t find anything except Christian pages saying the original texts no longer exist.
