Based on thirty years of the author's experience teaching Philosophy and Religious Studies in a California State University. Explains the three major and competing philosophies of interpreting the Bible: Fundamentalism, Non-Fundamentalist Belief and Humanism. Presents some fifty famous citations from both the Old and the New Testament and three typical interpretations of each citation: that of a Fundamentalist, that of a Non-Fundamentalist Believer and that of a Humanist. Includes some of the most recent interpretations of believing scripture scholars as well as of non-believing Humanist scholars.. For example: creation in seven days from Genesis; whether Mary of Magdalene and Jesus were married. There are some suggested newer interpretations of the author for example Jesus on Divorce and what Jesus meant when he said "This is my body. This is my blood" at the Supper. Also how both Jesus and Buddha urged people in he same words to 'do the right thing.''
