Are you guys really searching for the truth?

[Deoz]

Often I see people [on this very forum] copy & paste exhaustive lists or links to those which they know little next to nothing about from some type of Bible skeptic website and then go "LOLOLOLOL ur bible got teh contradictions". (obviously this example is too extreme but you get the idea)

I didn't make this thread to address the so called discrepancies or whatever else, but rather discuss why you guys do that. I know for a fact some of these are easily reconciled.

To The OP:

It's true, most people aren't really looking to listen to what other people say, they're really out to boy/pwn/own those that disagree.

But as for me searching for truth?

I MAKE my truth.

(due to the realisation that nothing can be certain and my mind and perception is the result of my actions and feelings)

(I'd also like to add that if I were to somehow live outside of logicality and understand truth I would have different views)

(I'd like to add something else, I realise I am stating the obvious by saying that I would have different views if I had a different "mind")

Truth comes from God and his word.

Satan wants you to believe that you are your own god so that he can be your god, satan has been using this trick since the garden of Eden.

Genesis 3:1-6

Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the LORD God had made. He said to the woman, "Did God really say, 'You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?"

The woman said to the serpent, "We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, 'You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.' "

"You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman. "For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."

When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.

I don't like to be dismissive, but I'm not taking what you're saying to heart.

The Bible was NOT written by Jesus but his followers, who twisted his words greatly.

Then the romans (the people who crucified Jesus in the first place) institutionalized "Christianity" and repressed any other Christian sects.

Many people argued about the philosophical and political implications of the old and new testament - so they altered it to fit to their ideas.

See, they wanted an empire under ONE religion, so they made it quite totalitarian.

Ever since then, it has been reinterpreted through the ages.

So make an argument instead of quoting the Bible.



But then again, you're probably a troll.

The government from 1984 also made their own truth.

Truth is just a matter of perspective.
