Everyone's aware that the Bible says some nasty things, and that some of the patriarchs were immoral (e.g. John Calvin wrote about the immorality of the patriarchs).
I'm not a Christian, but I think you underestimate them.
infact! before i got banned from c/christianity. i was told to explicitly avoid shit like this in the bible and focus on the good parts... a mod told me that.
Isn't that support for my claim that Christians acknowledge that the Bible also says some nasty things? After all, if they told you to focus on the good parts, it follows that there are non-good parts, and that you posted some.
most people believe the bible is perfect in every way! so this is just me poking holes in that believe.
Maybe the loudest voices, but that is certainly not the majority position of Christians.
In fact, I'd say that the main problem today is not taking the Bible seriously enough. Putting rainbow flags in churches is an abomination.
i forgot where i heard it from. but i believe most or a majority of christians have not read their bibles. like they read some of it. and have their priest or whatever read parts of it. but the average christian has not read the whole bible.
Not exactly the strongest evidence, but probably true. So what if it's true though? How would that preclude them from saying that the Bible says some nasty things?
yeah i posted some here! but over in c/christianity. all i did was ask questions. and probably bring up! stuff from the bible. but as far as bible quotes go... yeah! never posed any there
Now I'm confused about what you did. Regardless, it seems that you brought up bad stuff from the Bible, and that they banned you for that, which is them acknowledging what you say Christians deny.
true... but sadly most christians do listen to those loud mouths and inform their decisions based on those loud minority christians
Where are these Christians of yours? I'd like it if there were actual Chrisitans standing up for their religion, but very few are. Many are co-opted by the rainbow cult.
I'm pretty sure God is perfect and the bible is true. I'm no expert by any stretch but the verse does not contradicts either of those statements. That is not the word of God nor is it untrue.
That is why no one likes you. You reek of edgy atheist that is to stupid to see how cringe he sounds. I don't mind a good atheist discussion on the bible or God, by good I mean intelligent but you only bring up "gatcha" crap that I've heard before.
It embarrasses me to admit but I was not far from you some long time ago although I hope I was never as cringe as you.
Well they shouldn’t say to ignore “the bad parts”. That’s when they need to have a discussion about it although I’m guilty of not studying like I should and I know other Christians are in that same boat. I plan to do a cover to cover read if the Bible and do a better analysis. I’ve read it all but in different secretions at a time
I like sir. David Suchet. I'm a huge fan of his interpretation of Poirot and you can tell he is a good actor when he reads the bible. Is all on youtube.

Audio book while working out. Or going for a walk.
Also while falling asleep it works great if the reader has a smooth voice.
I was thinking about seeing if they digitized the versions read by James Earl Jones or Charlton Heston

I think certain parts are easier to read than others but I get something out of it all.
Calm down now.
