Where do you draw the line on Biblical inerrancy?

There are minor errors of fact and detail which do not alter the material truth or meaning of the text in any way - IE 200 and 2000 is not important as it could easily be a copy error

There are significant variations in the stories and records, none of which are fully accurate, but all of which contain historical truth along with the errors.

There is a vast mix of styles and sources, layered and re-layered over time reflecting traditions and stories relating to the Hebrew people and their God. But, based on independent archeological evidence and literary records, some of it could be possible

It's all a fairy tale, but in its message--sometimes scary, sometimes inspiring. Sometimes looney, sometimes profound. Sometimes outrageously wrong. Sometimes stunningly correct.

The bible is so full of bogus errors that we can nt be sure that there even was any of the people, places or events that it records

Biblical Contradictions

Post #1

Ok. I looked over the last few pages of topics and I couldn't find one dedicated to this discussion (much to my surprise). Therefore I am starting it.


What are the biblical contradictions which the atheists keep refering to and what are the answers by apologists.

Ready, set . . . GO!

I am closing down this thread.

Take a breather everyone. Read the rules again. Practice some yoga. Drink some green tea. And when you return, please do be careful of making any comment about another poster.

In the meantime, the moderating team will discuss what to do with this thread and if disciplinary actions will be required against certain individuals.
