"Inspired" doesn't necessarily mean "infallible."
@Plotinus- 2 Timothy 3:16 affirms the inspiration of the word. To deny that is to deny the Bible's validity, which calls the entire book into question.
During the story about throwing the first stone? I prefer to think that he was simply making busy-work for himself whilst the accusers thought over what he had said.

I'm considering reexamining Christianity after Plotinus's uber-post. Believing would be a lot easier if I didn't feel guilty about not taking the Bible literally and as being the last authoritative word. It's too bad that I was raised around fundies to begin with. MY life could have been a lot more pleasant.
Was it ever revealed what Jesus wrote on the ground in John 8:6?
Don't. Even if it's not literally true, it's still ridiculous and still features yahweh promoting obviously immoral actions.I'm considering reexamining Christianity after Plotinus's uber-post.

Even if the Bible was infallible, your interpretation of it certainly is not.
And I recall that you admitted that even you do not believe that everything that is in Genesis (e.g. the genealogies)
"Waters"? Looks to me like you've fallen on the first verse...![]()
Wait, if the Earth was formless and empty, then how was there waters?![]()
Second: I bought one of your books. I dearly hope it's good.![]()
Because the world began as dry rock. Most of our water arrived on asteroids and comets.how so?
