The ClayTaurus said:No. I'm not making your argument for you. You said things have been proven to be untrue in the Bible. So, what are they? I don't need every one. Just give like, 3 examples. This is your claim that things were proven to be untrue, not my claim that things are proven true.
Fair enough. I'll provide you with a couple examples.
For one we know the flood story to be a complete myth for several reasons.
1. It's scientifically impossible that it could have happened
2. There is geological evidence to suggest that it was merely a local river that may have killed no more than 1000 people
3. It is a complete plagerism of the Epic of Gilgamesh which is an old Babylonian tale and one that people believe is the first story ever written
The Bible says that the earth sits on top of pillars. We know that is not the case.
In the story of the Exodus the Pharoah's magicians are able to reproduce several of the plagues and magic tricks that Yahweh performs. Unless you believe in magic then this contradicts the idea that there is only one God.
In the bible there is mention of giant men who were over 11 feet tall and 7 feet wide. Nonsense...
They also claim that rain comes from God opening up the skies...if this book had any merit then they would know that there is a scientific explanation for such things.
I've given you an example of things that are obviously not true or just absurd in the bible.
Can you now tell me anything in the bible that IS true?
