Virtually every priest and pastor knows that the Bible they teach from the pulpit on Sundays bears no resemblance to the Bible they study in seminary or Bible college; and the language they use to discuss it among themselves is entirely different, in content and tone, from the language they use with their parishioners.
They refuse to share what they actually know about the Bible for fear that it would empty their collection plates.
@Usama_Backhair People seem to forget that "the bible" is a cherry-picked collection of older stories, which themelves often evolved out of even older traditions.
Not everything that the Bible came from is in the Bible, and the people who the old testament came from continued and continue to have an active evolution of their own ideas about Creation.
The people that picked what went in the bible left things out they didn't like.
