It wasn't usually from reading the bible, as I didn't do that much, but from contradictory things I learned in church. Me and my friends would try to reconcile contradictory ideas that we learned, and we usually could do it. It's amazing the stuff we were able to come up with. Here and there we were unable to come up with answers, and we just assumed that the answer was out there and we were just unable to think of it ourselves. Unfortunately, we would usually just assume an answer exists and move on without actually seeking the answer.Hausdorffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01690401058367596952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509207392481380457.post-63482168427824077142013-03-09T21:21:29.071-05:002013-03-09T21:21:29.071-05:00Yeah Hausdorff.

The problem I find is that most Christians who do study the Bible do so with the assumption that it is correct. So when they see a discrepancy, they just turn it on themselves, thinking that they must not be properly understanding the material.TWFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06016277303703254572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509207392481380457.post-21890989980215033242013-03-09T11:10:29.107-05:002013-03-09T11:10:29.107-05:00Yeah definitely, a lot of this stuff is clearly th...Yeah definitely, a lot of this stuff is clearly the result of it being difficult to get their hands on the actual old texts. I think that would explain a lot of the discrepancies in the gospels too. If they are written for a different audience for a slightly different purpose, why not change the message a little, it's not like anyone is going to be able to compare them easily. Even when they put them together in the bible, most people didn't have one. Now of course it is so easy to cross reference things, it becomes clear much more easily that this thing isn't divinely inspired, but instead put together by fallible humans.Hausdorffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01690401058367596952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509207392481380457.post-71119495794061800312013-03-08T21:53:28.536-05:002013-03-08T21:53:28.536-05:00Thanks Hausdorff.

I think that speaks to just how limited the access to the information (Scriptural scrolls) was at that time. It was nowhere near as easy to verify as it is today.TWFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06016277303703254572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5509207392481380457.post-6667947055464437992013-03-08T15:11:55.064-05:002013-03-08T15:11:55.064-05:00Great post as usual.

Once again, after looking at these things in detail it is pretty clear that the supposed prophecies in the new testament are really just cherry picking.Hausdorffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01690401058367596952noreply@blogger.com
