The Bible was written by humans...

Just a few questions I have regarding the Bible.

•  Where did the concept of evil come from if God created everything and everything was good.  If God is all good and not evil at all, how did he manage to create an angel that was eventually going to be the cause of  everything bad in the world. And if God is all knowing how did he not know that this angel  was going to become bad or if he did know why didn't he stop the angel. Surely an entity that was pure love and not evil at all would have done something to prevent this bad angel from indirectly causing all the disgusting and horrific things that have happened in the world to date. 

• If what Jesus did and said was so incredibly important for the spiritual well being of not only his generation but for the future of mankind, why didn't he write anything himself?  We know through passages in the Bible that he could read and write. So why was it left to be remembered and recorded through hearsay at least 30 years after he died?

•  A couple of days after Jesus was crucified, the stone in front of the tomb was open and his body had disappeared. He spoke to a woman (or women),  and was seen by people for some time afterward showing them the wounds in his hands to prove he was actually Jesus. The Bible suggests that Jesus had 'risen' from the dead as a spirit but  wouldn't we be more convinced of this  if  Jesus dead body hadn't disappeared? Seriously if I thought one of my close friends had died then their body went missing and they appeared later and showed me their wounds I would assume they hadn't died at all. I certainly would not assume they were a ghost!

I'm sure I am not the only one who has wondered about these things. I just find it interesting that hardcore  Bible believers can't seem to see the inconsistencies in these and many other passages. Having once been a Christian I understand the need to overlook certain faults in the scriptures to justify a need to believe in them as perfect. But there came a time in my life when I had to accept the truth  and stop denying that the Bible was written by people and we know people have the ability to manipulate other people... even to the point of getting them to believe that everything they have written comes from God.

Just a late night thought.
