Here's a "new" inconsistency I noticed. Compare Luke 23:39 to Matthew 27:32. In Luke, one of the robbers crucified with Jesus reviles him, the other rebukes his fellow and is promised by Jesus that he will have eternal life. In Matthew, both give Jesus a hard time.
Then again, does anyone here believe the Bible is inerrant?

[QUOTE][b]I haven't looked up the supposed contradiction you are positing (I just read your post about Biblical inerrancy) but I will and will get back to you shortly.[/QUOTE]

That is fortunate, because I feared I had built a strawman.

Hieroglyphs probably, and C14, last I heard no mummies have ever been found in the Great Pyramids. Pillaging and all that.

Hey Theo, Noah's people were asexually reproducing organisms?

Still reproducing asexually? Also still making the assumption that all offspring survive to produce three offspring themselves.
There are equations specifically for population growth. You'd be better off using them. If your simple version isn't even used by microbiologists for bacterial growth curves, I think that's a sign that other procedures should be sought.

I don't know, but I think hieroglyphics are textual/historical evidences, not C-14 material. Naturally the ego-crazed Pharoah will want to have his terrible name plastered in as many different places as possible and with an edited and rather biased historical description of his reign. I should probably look into this.

Somebody look up Deuteronomy 19:15 and 2 Corinthians 13:1

[QUOTE][b]In the Bible: No other mechanism could possibly hold the Bible together as the inerrant Word of God: the ‘Christ and Him Crucified’, the Gospel Word (which you call another ‘story’) is boldly ‘portrayed’ in every book of the Bible. No one, even honest atheist, denies that.[/QUOTE]
[/b]
The Christ story is not found in the Song of Solomon or Amos. I very much doubt you will find it in Genesis, Hebrews, or Deuteronomy either. Truely it is not in Job or Ruth for that matter, but I'm sure you will vehemently disagree.
