Originally posted by PhanthomOps, Quite the contrary, "But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned" 1 Corinthians 2:14 "For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?" 2:16 So where you only see (perhaps intentionally) contradiction, I see unity.

You can see anything you want if you hide from reality. I believe in UNITY, but not at the expense of reality.

When Christianity, particularly fundimentalist Christianity, claims the Bible the absolute inerrant word of God this a big claim. They challenges to science go all the way through to the education of children and it requires that those that support the Bible in this way to give a better defence than a vaguely related quote that does not address the problem of these contradiction.

I think skepicism is justified and I do not intentionally find contradictions.

Your responce is denial not reality in your statement "widely contradicts itself" Where ????? avoids the fact that they do exist.
