(December 28, 2011 at 1:21 pm)Stimbo Wrote: When you view the bible from the angle of it being a repository of mythology and legend cobbled together from different sources and presented against a background of the occasional historical event (and the New Testament in particular being incredibly poor fan fiction of the Old), it's not at all surprising to find inaccuracies and contradictions. It's when someone starts taking them seriously instead of the plot holes that they would be in any other context that the mental gymnastics begin. Or worse.
Just add some authentic material about Jesus into your mix and I think you will have a more accurate idea of what we are dealing with--a mixture of some facts with mostly fiction.
