So, my black heart tells me the bible is wrong and my head tells me that it’s illogical and dumb!?

why not...if WW3 starts there will most definitely be a shortage of tp and in all honesty it beats the hell out of a corn cob or tree leaf.

good point.  you've discovered another fatal flaw in the bible.\n\ngod knows the future and the past.  he already knows how everything turns out.  he already knows who exercises free will, who doesn't, and how they exercise it.  he already knows the outcome.\n\nthere is no need for any of this.  he already knows the future and how we all turn out.\n\nit also begs the question...why would a god put things into motion, when he knows the future, an knows he would have to flood the entire earth, killing everyone?  he already knew that was the future, he knew he'd have to do that.  so why set things in motion when you know you eventually have to kill all your children?\n\nand why inspire a bible, so ridiculous and poorly written that, after over 2000 years, less than 30% of the people on earth believe it?\n\nchristianity is total and utter nonsense, and is based on so many fatal flaws in its own theory, myth and certainly fatal flaws in basic logic, i'm surprised people are really ignorant enough to follow it.

Christians have many, many warped and bizarre answers to the ludicrous writings in The Bible. They always amuse me.

I think that this is the biggest problem with Christianity.  If you take the whole bible literally, than you aren’t making any logical sense, but it you take parts of it metaphorically than you have to pick and chose which parts to take seriously.\n\nIt’s all pretty self-serving if you ask me.

Wrong theology (The bible says that there is evil in the world, how could you not believe in evil?  Do you watch the news?), \n\nWrong practices (How do you not celebrate birthdays? Is it not a blessing to be alive for another year, that's a year God gave to you!), \n\nWrong interpretation of the bible (it's 144,000 from the TRIBE OF ISRAEL!!!), \n\nWrong approach to people (how do you go door to door like a vacuum cleaner salesman to spread the Gospel, where the relationship factor at?), \n\nWrong thought processes (I have been ostracized by Jehovah's Witnesses because I am not one, the bible teaches to love all thy brothers), \n\nWrong Etiquette (How do you ask a Christian to come to Kingdom Hall but when they ask you to come to church you turn your nose up and say no?)\n\nTo be clear they are just wrong...

You have your "ictions" mixed up.\n\nThe Quran is FIction.\nThe Holy Bible is NONFIction.\n\nHey, Good question.\n\nDon't feel ignorant, it is a common mistake.\n\nGod Bless You. Continue Seeking Truth.

Don't you have that backwards? I've met many people who believe every word in the bible even if you can prove that it is a miss translation, or against known facts. The bible can be used to "prove" anything you like if you take it out of context and add your own spin.

I'm sure this is tongue in cheek, but obviously one can be christian and not think that the bible is meant to be read as literal truth in every word.  you'd go crazy reconciling the contradictions.

wow...the bible proves it self... and has to many peope throughout history...those the seek the truth find it and those that have no value in it do not...If you find the word of god as stupid then you have your answer as to why it makes no sense to you...God is there for those who find value in him..nad he reveals himself to those who seek him with all there heart...if this does not apply to you then why are you so amazed that you do not understand what others do? I keep talking to athiest who find no value in god whatsoever....this makes perfect sense to me that god has not revealed himself to these and if they are happy and you are happy why do you care that God has revealed himself to others?

i think u need to open the bible and read it , u are taking things way out of context. maybe read something before u start asking these questions that even if we gave u the answer u still won't understand. im not going to try to explain the whole bible to u, u can't just take 1 verse and go from there about what its talking about

OK, I am way at the bottom here. I will keep it short. \n\nI can understand your frustration, musicimprovedme, but let me take your username as a starting point. Do you believe that the works of Bach are accurate? How do you know they were not changed over the years? Do they not have a signature TGABG (To God Alone Be Glory)? Do they not have his style? Isn't it for reverence to his brilliance that we copied the manuscripts painfully accurate?\n\nFirst, forget who compiled it, its not important. Is it accurate? The Dead Sea Scrolls proved that the entire book of Isaiah can be copied for 2,000 years and still stay 100% accurate.\n\nDo you believe that Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life?" If not, you have no hope. If you do, act on that alone. That is all you need for salvation. You have to ask yourself what you want. Do you want salvation? Do you want to believe the Bible? Do you want hope and truth? You need to be talking to God about this, not a bunch of Yahoos on Yahoo! (I include myself)\n\nDo you want proof of the Bible's authenticity? Read my studies below. Do you want to come in contact with your Creator? Read the first one below. But stop assuming things that are not true on the Bible. That is not the problem, the problem is your lack of personal relationship with your loving Creator.

now let me think about that for a nano second...yes!\nlets face it, the bible was a collection of STORIES...and if anyone thinks that people get turned into pillars of salt, then they are more stupid than i thought

Amen! If you think the Bible is false, you would be calling Him a liar. If you think it's written just by men, you are calling God a liar. How could you believe in a God that would lie? You wouldn't. So no, you cannot believe God and not the Bible. Without the Bible how would you know God? God Bless!

I'm daring.....\n\nThe Bible is bound to contradict itself, IT WAS NOT WRITTEN BY GOD but by men!\n\nGod's inspiration cannot contradict itself

It is wrong.  A lot of the book is just made up stuff mixed with a TINY bit of fact to make a story.  He wrote on a page of his book that everything was true in there, yet I went to a Christian website that listed quite a few things that were proven false about it!!!!

this is a difficult passage, i too am having problems with it\ni think it is referencing the only unforgivable sin, blasphemy...because you know of the truth but you blatantly disregard it. You ignorantly ignore the truth of the word and therefore cannot be accepted. But I could be wrong altogether

You are a very smart person, just like I was when I was young.  I also saw that the bible was the words of men about God.  And much was true, even wonderful and enlightening, especially the words of Christ.\n\nBut I found similar discrepancies.\n\nIf something happens and several different people tell about it, you will never get the exact same story.  Focus on the agreement, there is truth...\n\nAs for the full details..  How would you like to hear from the angels and other eye-witnesses?\n\nHave you found or looked at this source yet?\n\nhttp://www.urantia.org/papers/toc.html\n\nTake a close look at the authors of the various papers.\n\nGod works in the world today just as in olden times and is generous about sharing the truth.\n\nI also have a blog, written by such a person as yourself, though I am now much older.\n\nIt is a final thing that I am giving to the world.  My last words have to be the best ones I can share, wouldn't you think so?\n\nhttp://www.360.yahoo.com/ki_te_moana\ngo to first blog entry\n\nhttp://www.spaces.msn.com/up-escalator\ngo to the first blog entry\n\nThere are pointers starting there that will NEVER run out for the remainder of your life, even for all eternity.\n\nIf the seeing lead the seeing shall they not all make continual progress into greater light and life?\n\n(we all know about the blind and the ditch)
