>Yes, but the bible is a work of fiction. First off, you should capitalize the name of the Bible. Secondly, fiction books are based off the animation where the Bible is a compilation of scriptures that include events that actually took place.

>magical fairie text

The Bible was not written by magical fairies, but by regular people.

>it's not a single homogenous group

True, but most of the teachings remain the same throughout the different denominations. Sexual immorality is condemned constantly throughout the Bible, both in old and new testaments.

>are they not allowed to evolve and improve over time

Yes, Christianity has evolved over time. If by improve, you mean turning things that are sins into things that are not, then I will disagree and say that you can not do that. You can not simply go against God's word. If God said that something is a sin, you can't just reply back that it's 2019 and He should get with the times.

> First off, you should capitalize the name of the Bible.

Why? It's just a random work of text. There are several variants of it, and other people like theirs better. Why should yours get special treatment?

You can assign more importance to your particular flavour if you want, no stress. But me... I'm not going to.

Personally speaking, I rather like this book:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chasm_City

If you felt inclined to capitalise that too, then sure, go for it.

But again, like the book you're taking about... it's just a work of fiction. Nothing more. Don't read too much into it. ;)

> fiction books are based off the animation

???

> ... then I will disagree and say that you can not do that.

No worries. I'm just going to point out the "then I will disagree" bit. That's very clearly your opinion. As such, it's of equal weight to your preferred magical fairie text, and everyone else's opinion. No more.

Or if you think your opinion is of more importance than the above magical fairie text... well hmmm. That seems to be the opposite of what you've been saying before.

>Why?

I'm sure you learned in an English class that you should capitalized the name of books.

>It's just a random work of text

It is anything but random. It is a holy text.

>There are several variants of it

Yes, this is because of the difficulty of reproducing books and from creating translations of it.

>Why should yours get special treatment?

I did not create the Bible. The names of any other book is capitalized, so I do not see it as special treatment.

>If you felt inclined to capitalized that too

If you even looked at the Wikipedia link, you would see that it is capitalized.

>it's just a work of fiction

No, it is not. It is a collection of actual events and actual writings produced.

>animation

This was a mistake. I meant to say imagination. A work of fiction comes from the imagination, not real life like the Bible.

>[it is] your opinion

Yes, it is my opinion based off mine and many others interpretation of the Bible. It is wrong to insult the Lord, thinking you know better than Him about what is and what is not a sin.

>magical fairie text

Again I want to point out that the Bible was composed and written by humans and not magical fairies.

>Or if you think your opinion is of more importance than the above magical fairie text...

No, I am sharing my interpretation of the Bible. I would prefer you to address the text as the Bible and not as a, "magical fairie text." To me, it seems like your are making these mistakes intentionally.
