Your claim is that the Bible does not contain any contradictions. If we can provide one counter example then the claim is false.
Right from the beginning: Genesis chapter 1 -- god made plants and animals before it made man and woman at the same time. Genesis chapter 2 -- god made man before plants and animals then made woman from one of man's ribs. These are two different pieces of information and they are incompatible, mutually exclusive, such that if Gen. 1 is true, the the second chapter is wrong.
No excuses, no word games, no ad hominems. The first two chapters of Genesis are contradictory. The claim, that there are no contradictions in the Bible is false. No excuses -- the claim is wrong. Repeating that claim is what we call a lie.
This link will clearly show you there are is no contradiction at all:

So you provide a link to the words of a scumbag cult leader who is a notorious, compulsive, inveterate liar and con man. I read his bullshit excuse and that is all it is -- a bullshit excuse. I do not believe that a lie + bullshit excuse = truth. that is what you are trying to sell me. I'm not buying it.
Let's just stick with the actual facts. The claim is that the Bible does not contain any contradictions. The fact of the matter is that it does. The claim is wrong. No excuses, no bullshit, no ad hominems, or just flat out childish denial like you just did.
Simple logic:
Claim the Bible contains no contradictions.
How do we test that claim? Read the Bible and if you can come up with even one counter-example then the claim is wrong. It is very simple, very basic, straght-forward logic.
You and I both know that I can go through the Bible and find contradictions, absurdities, stuff that is just plain wrong, really bad advice, ghastly atrocities, and gibberish that does not mean a god damn thing no matter how you try to twist it. You and I both know that magic story book believers have bullshit excuses for all this stuff. You and I both know that these lame excuses do not stand up to even the lowest level of scrutiny. All Ken Ham did was just deny the contradiction -- that's it, just denial. It is dishonest. Why should I consider the denial of a notorious liar to trump reality? I shouldn't.
It's just about honesty. I cannot accept Kan Ham's excuse honestly because it is a dishonest excuse.
A mind is a terrible thing to waste -- don't pollute it with bullshit.
