Many say here the bible is full of hundreds of contradictions. Well, this statement is false and not even plausable. If it had so many they would have been caught hundreds of years ago by those why study and memorize the bible and try to understand it.
FAIL!
People believe all kinds of crazy things when it comes to religion. The human mind is capable of rationalizing the absurd. Further, most Christians don't actually read the Bible.
Quote:Chapter one is a general picture of everything that was made and when it was made. Chapter 2 is detail of the sixth day.
FAIL!
Did Yahweh make the sun on day 1 or day 4. Christians will say day 4, after making the earth and plants (!) but how did we have "days" "evenings" and "mornings" then? The sun rather defines the whole concept of day, night, evening and morning.
Did Yahweh make the stars on day 4 or after the earth was created on day 2? See Job 38:4-7.
Quote:Job 38:4-7 Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? ... When the morning stars sang together.
Did Yahweh make man and woman at the same time (1:27) or first man and later woman (2:22)?
Quote:It says he made man and if you actually read, you will see verse 8 of chapter 2. It says he planted Eden after man. The earth was filled with trees, but he made some more for his garden for man. Then in verse 19 where he makes animals, he is simply creating animals for his garden. There are already animals around the world, but the garden is new and empty so he filled it with animals. No contradiction.
FAIL! Note the words "every":
Quote:Gen 2:5 And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.
2:9 And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food;
2:19 And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof.
But of course Yahweh formed the birds out of the water (not the ground) on day 5
Quote:Gen 1:21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
