Contradictions and inaccuracy's in the Bible.

    From time to time i notice posters remarking on contradictions that are found in the
    Bible with little or no debate.
    Given that this may be the case, I'm lead to believe that there are many
    out there who believe this to be true.
    Perhaps because all religions differ in some way or another this is why we
    sometimes find these contradictions.
    I believe the Bible to be the word of God and therefore do not believe
    there could be any inaccuracy's.
    What some believe to be contradictions or inaccuracy's, can sometimes
    weaken our faith or, even stumble us.
    I would be interested to see if anybody has found something in the Bible
    which may of caused them to question its authenticity.

    The Atheist/Christian Debate thread exists for such discussions, so posters are free to take it there.

    We've asked on many occasions for those who claim the Bible to be full of 'contradictions' to give some examples.

    What always tends to happen is that the anti-theists produce a quote which has two or more plausible interpretations, one of which would involve a contradiction but others which would not. When this is pointed out, they insist that the one single interpretation that suits them is the only true one, and everyone who thinks otherwise is biased and irrational. From then on it tends to go downhill fast and everyone gets ratty with each other.

    It's like Groundhog Day, but we haven't quite managed to find one of these clear contradictions that the Bible is supposed to be full of. As I said, if anyone has the energy for another round of that then the Atheist/Christian debate thread is the correct venue. It might even lift that thread out of the pointless downward spiral that it is currently tracking about atheist versus Christian governments.
