Most people inherit their theology. They don’t build it.

That’s why so many ideas get passed down as "biblical"—when they’re actually cultural, fictional, or mistranslated.

This is Part 3 in our series dismantling inherited assumptions about the Bible. All claims are fact-checked against mainstream scholarship. The goal isn’t to mock belief—it’s to expose the difference between faith and folklore.

Let’s keep going.


#51

CLAIM: The Ten Commandments are the foundation of American law.
FACT: U.S. law is based on English common law and Enlightenment principles—not the Bible. The First Amendment directly contradicts the First Commandment by allowing freedom of religion. In fact, the Constitution doesn’t mention God at all.


#52

CLAIM: The Bible was written in English.
FACT: It was originally written in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek. The King James Bible—often treated as sacred by fundamentalists—was translated over 1,500 years after the original texts, with heavy influence from political and theological agendas.
