Please brush up on strawmen and other logical fallacies like the appeal to authority or as you write, "many scholars and learned people..."

I answered your allegations, it is not my fault if you don't like the answers. It's not my fault if you don't understand the Bible, I don't, but I do try instead of relying on only the debunker's version.

The Bible is remarkably consistent if you read the whole thing, hence my comment to start at Genesis and end at Revelation. As we're talking about the whole thing being consistent, we have to include the entire thing. When you are done we can talk, what's that you say, it's too long? Yet you want me to prove the entire book is consistent and that's a valid request? Prove a negative much?

the modern Christian only observes the parts of the bible that fit their personal narrative Takket Sep 2015 #1
