I love how the "do your own research" mantra has become really find a website the fits my confirmation bias.

That isn't research. Real research takes months, years, is peer reviewed, cites experts in their field. Not I read a blog that sounds good to my earholes so it must be true.

so you shite on science because it is ever evolving (see what I did there) and hasn't been 100% confirmed a second by second timeline, but your answer to everything is "cause God..."

I'll buy the BS and stand pat because it turns out science has provided us with such things as antibiotics that have saved countless people's lives who would have surly died if otherwise were offered nothing but prayer.

I believe science has its place, as does religion; they are not mutually exclusive.

Your "proof" that the bible is divinely inspired is... the bible.

"Circular logic". Look it up.

Scripture tells us The Holy Spirit spoke through special, chosen men / prophets to speak on behalf of God.


It’s true because it says it’s true. This is an obvious logical fallacy.

Four "witnesses" ALWAYS have a slightly different account of the SAME event or quote, don't they?


That's pretty convenient. I guess the Holy Spirit was a little spread thin and couldn't cover them all.

quote:

That said, there are actually ZERO contradictions. (if would you like to cite one, have at it.)


Matthew and Luke contradict each other constantly.

Matthew says Joseph's father is Jacob, Luke says it is Heli. In fact the two genealogies that both list are pretty different.

They don't agree where Jesus was taken or born.

They disagree with each other and Mark on how many signs (or any at all) will show him as the Messiah.

They all disagree with how he recruited disciples.

They disagree on when the last supper took place.


There are dozens more.

Genesis isn't even the oldest book in the bible.


That's right, Exodus is. You'd think God would go ahead and start at the beginning instead of half-way through and then going back to Genesis like some kind of dramatic flashback.

You're assuming uranium has always decayed at the same rate. Even the best dating systems are based on asumptions that everything has ALWAYS been exactly as it is now.


We have evidence that decay rate has not changed. We have observed radioactive decay in at least one supernova that was 186000 light years away. We are seeing the rste as it was 186000 years ago which is the same as now.

Also, there are theoreticsl reasons that rates don't change. Finally, if the decay rate HAD been fast enough a few thousand years ago to make the Earth only a few thousand years old, the heat released would have melted the Earth.

People like you that are so rigid and closed minded are the reason for the decline in Christianity.

Not to mention that isn't the only way we can test age.

There are dozens of different tests including core samples and things like that, and they are all 100% consistent.

That is debatable. Most scholars think Job is the oldest book.

Not starting the Bible with god being a raging dickhead is probably a good call.
