I appreciate your effort in trying to give evidence of the bible's accuracy...I've often thought about posting someting similar. How did these people find you...and then turn around and basically persecute you? <br /><br />Why are they so intimidated by this post? Hmmmmm.<br /><br />The Bible is my favorite book and it is the most widely purchased book in the world. End of story. No further discussion needed. The argument that they are printed in bulk is silly. They are printed in bulk because there is a DEMAND for them. Get over it people and just get one. Stop being afraid of what's out there and your own salvation. You just don't to be responsible for your actions so it is easier to not believe.M.O.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04938531996956373046noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10162561.post-1161976721213348492006-10-27T13:18:00.000-06:002006-10-27T13:18:00.000-06:00How do you know if the bible is 100% accurate?If t...How do you know if the bible is 100% accurate?<BR/>If the words are all blacked out, it is.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10162561.post-1148129293992978492006-05-20T06:48:00.000-06:002006-05-20T06:48:00.000-06:00Jason, I agree...Misquoting Jesus is full of nonse...Jason, I agree...Misquoting Jesus is full of nonsense!Tyler Dawbinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07699523511925480868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10162561.post-1148093111617818022006-05-19T20:45:00.000-06:002006-05-19T20:45:00.000-06:00Nothing that will make any difference to you, darl...Nothing that will make any difference to you, darling.Ubersehenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17332607619856283785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10162561.post-1148074920262440112006-05-19T15:42:00.000-06:002006-05-19T15:42:00.000-06:00I'm sorry, Ubersehen - Did you say something???I'm sorry, Ubersehen - Did you say something???Dani Kekoahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12551545245512227602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10162561.post-1148071319437528522006-05-19T14:41:00.000-06:002006-05-19T14:41:00.000-06:00You waste your time, all of you. Dani is not inte...You waste your time, all of you. Dani is not interested in contemplating other arguments. This is evident enough in the shaky evidence she continuously presents, despite the possibility of other answers or plain firm proof to the contrary.<BR/><BR/>For instance: <I>"The Bible was the first book ever printed back in 1454 A.D. and <B>it has been the number one best seller of all time ever since</B>"</I><BR/><BR/>Someone, in a previous response to this, pointed out numerous reasons for why the Bible is the "number one best seller of all time", in particular mass purchases for churches and hotel rooms on a <I>global scale</I>. This would argue strongly against the popularity of such a book or its supposed universal relevance to modern society. Further, it was pointed out that Chairman Mao's Little Red Book was #2 on that list. The Valley of the Dolls by Jacqueline Susann was also there, as well as The Common Sense Book of Baby and Child Care by the author much-hated by Dani, herself, Dr. Benjamin Spock. And yet, here Dani is, spouting the same bullshit as if she'd never read these points in the first place. <BR/><BR/>It's time anyone reading this blog fully realized that this woman is not listening. She has been trained not to listen, easily indoctrinated into a community of promised certainty because of a turbulent past and a manipulative husband. Don't hate her, pity her. <BR/><BR/>The tactics here are visibility. Like her mentor, Bob Enyart, victory is determined by how much <I>attention</I> they receive for their views. And her visibility (not to be confused with popularity) is rising. With each preprogrammed statement, more of those that disagree with her words speak up. Normally, I would agree heartily with protesting the misguided and those that hate, but this one is a special case. She does not win because her message is persuasive, she wins because it is not. Because it is <I>so ridiculous</I> that everyone keeps returning, like that delightfully appropriate car crash analogy, to have another peek at the mess.<BR/><BR/>It's not about reason, it's not about truth, it's not even about God. It's about a woman who was lost and believes she's found her way, when really she's just found someone else to take the burden of choice away from her. That way, she doesn't have to be responsible for anything she says. I bet it's comforting.Ubersehenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17332607619856283785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10162561.post-1148046146200523292006-05-19T07:42:00.000-06:002006-05-19T07:42:00.000-06:00I think we're forgetting one thing though -- it's ...I think we're forgetting one thing though -- it's full of nonsense.<BR/><BR/>BTW, I read this other blog and apparently the real god is <A HREF="http://www.pitt.edu/AFShome/s/o/sorc/public/html/hindu/Index%5CReligion%5Cshiva.jpe" REL="nofollow">Shiva</A>.

Ehrman."<BR/><BR/>"When world-class biblical scholar Bart Ehrman first began to study the texts of the Bible in their original languages he was startled to discover the multitude of mistakes and intentional alterations that had been made by earlier translators. In Misquoting Jesus, Ehrman tells the story behind the mistakes and changes that ancient scribes made to the New Testament and shows the great impact they had upon the Bible we use today. He frames his account with personal reflections on how his study of the Greek manuscripts made him abandon his once ultraconservative views of the Bible." "Since the advent of the printing press and the accurate reproduction of texts, most people have assumed that when they read the New Testament they are reading an exact copy of Jesus's words or Saint Paul's writings. And yet, for almost fifteen hundred years these manuscripts were hand copied by scribes who were deeply influenced by the cultural, theological, and political disputes of their day. Both mistakes and intentional changes abound in the surviving manuscripts, making the original words difficult to reconstruct. For the first time, Ehrman reveals where and why these changes were made and how scholars go about reconstructing the original words of the New Testament as closely as possible." "Ehrman makes the provocative case that many of our cherished biblical stories and widely held beliefs concerning the divinity of Jesus, the Trinity, and the divine origins of the Bible itself stem from both intentional and accidental alterations by scribes - alterations that dramatically affected all subsequent versions of the Bible."--BOOK JACKET.<BR/><BR/>I dare you to read it :)Ellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12030909492485944628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10162561.post-1147984167489441542006-05-18T14:29:00.000-06:002006-05-18T14:29:00.000-06:00Oh Jason -- Are you still in grade school?Did you ...Oh Jason -- Are you still in grade school?<BR/><BR/>Did you know that back before the Bible was translated to english, there were no spaces, comas or paragraph breaks? Talk about hard to understand. <BR/><BR/>Just because there weren't any footnotes or references and no index, does not make it fiction.<BR/><BR/>Many Bibles today are called "study" Bibles and not only include all of the above, but background history about each book and who authored it.<BR/><BR/>You can also go online and read the Bible in all the different translations, complete with topic index, word search, footnotes and all => <A HREF="http://www.biblegateway.com/" REL="nofollow">Bible Gateway</A><BR/><BR/>=============<BR/><BR/>Hey FreeThinker, my favorite atheist -- Thanks for stopping by! <BR/><BR/>First off, the Bible isn't ment to be science fiction, so that's probably why you don't think it's a good story. It's more of a history book combined with some science, but definitely not science-fiction. If it were, don't you think God could just travel back in time and force Adam & Eve not to eat that darn apple? Then we would all be living in paradise with no sin and no death. But, God is a living God and exists here with us in time.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the link too, but God does NOT hate amputees. Kinda silly don't you think? Does he also hate the blind, deaf, disabled, those suffering from cancer and disease, or those hit by major floods or hurricane Katrina? NO of course not! But pain and suffering are a real part of life, and it is a result of living in a fallen world in rebellion towards God.<BR/><BR/>Let me ask you this - If God came down right now and healed all of the amputees in the world, then would you believe???<BR/><BR/>Didn't think so!<BR/><BR/>It's always good to hear from you.
