The “old” Bible, which was written throughout generations and by different people, can be considered outdated.

Many people are hung up on its contradictions and statements that are difficult to implement due to changing times.

But a set of rules or an overview of who we are and what the world is would be nice.

Times are calling for something new.

So I decided to ask AI to create me a new Bible.

According to ChatGPT, the new bible should include things like diversity, science, and justice.

A contemporary “Bible” might be more inclusive and diverse, addressing the issues and insights of our times while drawing from universal human experiences and wisdom.

Here’s an idea of what might be included:

1. Core Texts on Human Values

• Stories and parables about empathy, kindness, resilience, and justice, capturing diverse voices and perspectives.

• Guidance on topics like ethical living, the balance of individual and collective responsibilities, and environmental stewardship.

• Insights into the cosmos, life sciences, and the principles of evolution, framed to invite curiosity and respect for life’s complexity.

This new “Bible” would blend wisdom from philosophy, science, and spirituality, designed to help readers navigate modern challenges while fostering a sense of unity, purpose, and shared humanity.
