To start off, the Bible is pretty much just a record of the relationship between humans and God.

I believe it also to be a guide for the best way to live our lives.

Many different authors contributed to the Bible with their sacred scriptures.

I totally agree.  Though many would disagree, the Bible is the Only book that contains absolutely No contradictions.

There is some disagreement among different denominations.  Protestants focus on scripture alone, while roman catholics stress harmony.

This is true.  I personally do not believe in denominations.  Christ established His church.  All others are corruptions created by man.

Denominations or not, nowadays there is a total of more than two billion Christians worldwide.

This is true, but at least in the US, the majority of people report that religion plays a very important role in their lives.
