You know that no one in their right mind is going to spend all that time in one thread.

Why don't you start one thread, get your answers, then go on to the next ?

I, for one, will not participate in this format, which I can guarantee you were counting on.

[Elephantitis Man]

I agree with D_S. Too much stuff in 1 thread. Sort it out a bit.

[Adrenochrome]

LMAO, you guys just don't want to answer the questions because you know you can't.

[Saphiria]

First of all, many of those things are not the full line and put together to say something else.

Second, the bible is not ment to take literally. Many of the things said were so the people then could understand it. Then and today are didfferent, means different things today.

Just to say, the bible could have mistakes, I'm not saying if it does or doesn't, but the bible was written by people inspired by god to write it and most of the things written in the bible, people worte down from memories and stories passed down through the years.

And by the prompting of the Holy Spirit.

Ok, only one contradiction for those that claim the bible contains none.

Tell me, when jehoiachin began to reign how old was he?

(Don't just google this and trust sites, read your bible before you reply).

This is a simple error, nothing too huge but it does do two things, 1) proves the bible is not without error and 2) brings into question how accurate the rest is if the 'holy spirit' allowed such an easily correctable error to intrude in the good book.

Why don't you start killing babies and people in general then?

[Saphiria]

If you read the full passage of those things, and just not the one line it gives a different message. always read the whole thing, or you get something else
