[quote="Low spark":a6b91]Im sorry but I had to post one more to this incredible thread. I hope that you have had fun *Mog*Cut-n-paste. Like I said in the message I've heard it all before. You offer no enlightment. You're show albity to solve a problem for anyone, but you sure can find a nice quote to fit any situation. You probably go to you singles group and practice your bilble pickup lines on the girls.
So here's some cutting and pasting back at ya. bub.[/quote:a6b91]

I sense some hostility here :lol:

INTRODUCTION
It is a central dogma of all fundamental Christians that the Bible is without error. They teach this conclusion by "reasoning" that god cannot be the author of false meaning and he cannot lie. Is this true? If written by a perfect being, then it must not contradict itself, as a collection of books written by different men at different times over many centuries would be expected to contradict each other. With this in mind, let us have a look at the Bible on several subjects.
ON THE SABBATH DAY
"Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy." -- Exodus 20:8
"One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind." -- Romans 14:5
ON THE PERMANENCY OF THE EARTH
"... the earth abideth for ever." -- Ecclesiastes 1:4
"... the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up." -- 2Peter 3:10
ON SEEING GOD... ETC, ETC SHORTED FOR SPACE RESTRANTS...

These words were written between 1800 and 1900 years ago and were meant to warn and prepare the first Christians for the immediate end of the world. Some words are those supposedly straight out of the mouth of the "Son of God." The world did not end 1800 or 1900 years ago. All that generation passed away without any of the things foretold coming to pass. No amount of prayer brought it about; nor ever so much patience and belief and sober living. The world went on, as usual, indifferent to the spoutings of yet another batch of doomsday prophets with visions of messiahs dancing in their deluded brains. The world, by surviving, makes the above passages contradictions.
CONCLUSION
What is incredible about the Bible is not its divine authorship; it's that such a concoction of contradictory nonsense could be believed by anyone to have been written by an omniscient god. To do so, one would first have to not read the book, which is the practice of most Christians; or, if one does read it, dump in the trash can one's rational intelligence -- to become a fool for god, in other words.
All Bible quotes from the Authorized King James Version of the Bible (New York: Abradale Press, 1965)[/quote:a6b91]


Talk about hearing it all before.
Thats quite impressive, and any reply would be useless to one so enlightened. You did forget the classic:

Who was Cain's wife? :lol:

And this has been my whole point, the Bible has a "quote to fit every situation" because it was given by God (who works through ordinary men to pen its pages).

Also remember most of your "contradictions" are from different testaments (old vs new).

Tes·ta·ment
1) archaic : a covenant between God and the human race
