However, one of my tops is one of the first stories: Adam and Eve.
Genesis 1:11-12 and 1:26-27 Trees came before Adam.
Genesis 2:4-9 Trees came after Adam.
Genesis 1:20-21 and 26-27 Birds were created before Adam.
Genesis 2:7 and 2:19 Birds were created after Adam.
Genesis 1:24-27 Animals were created before Adam.
Genesis 2:7 and 2:19 Animals were created after Adam.
Genesis 1:26-27 Adam and Eve were created at the same time.
Genesis 2:7 and 2:21-22 Adam was created first, woman sometime later.
Anyone else thinking that the Bible might need an editior? Oh and if anyones interested this website has a whole heap of conradictions: http://www.thethinkingatheist.com/page/b...radictions
There's a reason you see a contradiction, it's all you look for. The first chapter of Genesis is the order in which creation took place, the second chapter is giving some details of the creation in no certain order.
It is definatly not all I look for, GC. I dont go around looking for contradictions, they are in the Bible, and they are blantantly obvious.
Its like me saying that you only look for the 'good' in the Bible, which I assume you do. What about the genocide, killing of children and women, rape and many other hideous immoral acts that take place within the Bible?
And your statment dosn't really provide any consalation. It is still a conradiction, no matter what order you put it in.
