Which is where I think that some go wrong. Your video makes me think of the quote from Augustine that “you should never judge a philosophy by it’s abuse”. As well as the academic principle of charity. That is that you should contend with the best possible version of an argument, and not judge an idea by some crazy or extreme adherent.
(emphasis mine)
Asserting the Bible is inerrant is heresy:
2 Chronicles 18 (KJV)
22 Now therefore, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets, and the Lord hath spoken evil against thee.
Jeremiah 8 (KJV)
8 How do ye say, We are wise, and the law of the Lord is with us? Lo, certainly in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes is in vain.
Ezekiel 14 (KJV)
9 And if the prophet be deceived when he hath spoken a thing, I the Lord have deceived that prophet, and I will stretch out my hand upon him, and will destroy him from the midst of my people Israel.
The Bible itself contains errors, deliberately dictated by the Lord God Almighty.
Do you think that perhaps these in context where speaking about specific things? I don't think that these are saying what you think they are saying. Perhaps you should read for understanding rather than prooftexting.
