Biblical contradictions II

"I don't get involved in frivolous rhetoric. "Thus saith the Lord.." means just that. We will see who is right at the judgement. Be sure to wear a name tag so I can recognise you among the hoardes being cast into the Lake of Fire. God's Word will cut through your rhetoric and pragmatic mindset faster than you realise. But then again, it's just a piece of motheaten parchment. Right?"Well, if you don't "get involved in frivolous rhetoric", why are you posting? This is a debate (the last time I checked) and if you believe in absolute authority ("Thus saith the Lord"), then you will believe anything despite the evidence to the contrary. BTW, such a loving god he is, to cast "hordes" of people into a lake of fire. Prehaps you believe out for fear? If I had proof (not just a book of very questionable origins), I would believe (again). But then my motives would be in question...

"I'm sorry to hear about your apostasy. If you were a Christian you ARE a Christian. Once you are in God's family you cannot get out. Only He can put you out. You are sealed by the Holy Ghost."Cool, then I am a saved agnostic."Over 500 different cultures testify to a worldwide flood. Since Genesis talks about a worldwide flood, it stands to reason that the Bible is truthful in this area as well as others."To a worldwide flood? So, then geology is a satanic conspiracy, designed to get us to THINK for ourselves based on the evidence and be cast into hell...Not to mention that the Genesis account post dates all of the other (local) flood stories. In fact, so does the biblical stories regarding a saviour that was born of a virgin, died (on a tree even), and was buried and resurrected (sources availible if you'd like). Are there multiple saviours?As far as your testimony, you have to realize that it proves nothing. Many others have testimonies regarding Krishna, Odin, Budda (ok, Buddism), Quezocotol, etc. But with regard to your testimony, why did god spare you, yet thousands die needless deaths everyday (including the truely innocent, childen)?"As for your happiness, BE HONEST! YOU may be happy for a time but you know inside yoouare empty or struggling with the Holy Spirit. Be warned, He will not always pull. There will come a time that God will stop calling you back and give you over to Satan. Don't let it be soon. Lord, bring Yaro back if he/she is your child. in Jesus' name. Amen Gotta go"Wow. Pray for me, and let's see what happens. All that I (and I think I speak for most of us) is just some concrete proof. You know, evidence.

"First of all, there has been NO evidence presented to the contrary just opinions and suppositions. I HAVE a source and it's not opinions"I think that everyone here that has posted, have answered your questions and much more patient than I. After all, they are not using outside sources, they are using the very bible that you claim is inerrant."Why do you obey the laws of your land (if you do)?"Haha...yes, I do. Now, I simply do not steal because I would not want it done to me. I do not enjoy hypocrisy. I had my shed and garage broken into this past weekend, and it made me sick and angry. Furthermore, I do (try to anyways) what is right; what my common sense tells me (did I open a huge can of worms with that one?), not because of what some archaic book says.
Theo, do you kill witches? Kill homosexuals? Keep slaves? If not, why? The bible clearly says to do so (verses will be provided if you'd like).

Hahahahaha!!!! Jack Chick, now there's a reliable source! 10,000 missing links? All of your arguments have been answered, and even if I post them here you will not believe unless "Thus saith the Lord" appears in the text.
Did the biblical god speak in King James? If not, why do some xians speak with "thees and thous"?
Jusr curious...

Since we have spun off topic, I may as well add this; I used to believe (not a Sunday christian), and the reason was is that I was looking for peace and love. My decisions to become a christian and to stop believing were not arbituary at all. They both required a great deal of thought, meditation and "faith". I am much happier now (and moral), have a much stronger (and EQUAL) relationship with my wife, more tolerant that I ever thought possible.
Life is good.

Yes, I am a satanic catholic. BTW, my question "Did the biblical god speak in King James?" was rhetorical... as far as the 10,000 refutations regarding the 10,000 missing links....[sigh], ok you win. I refuse to send 10,000 emails to anyone.
This has really been fun, but you are right; neither side will budge. I will not accept a god based on a bible that has a contradiction in EVERY chapter (yes, I'll send one a doc that I wrote that explains these, or you can go to: Skeptic's Annotated Bible / Quran / Book of Mormon ; by the way, this is not a skeptics bible, it is the KJV).
and neither will you accept rational truth based on the evidence.
