Why the bible cannot be trusted?

RE: Why the bible cannot be trusted?
Well Muslim Scholar, since you didn't watch the video I posted before, here it is again:

It also serves as a reponse to Rayaan regarding the number of textual variants (now estimated to be around 40,000).
Quote:The Bible itself doesn't say that, it is very clear that the bible (each one) is words of a witness or a historian who is writing about "the word of God"
Mathew, Luke, etc.
The Bible does cite itself as scripture many times. Here's an example:
  • 1 Timothy 5:18: For the Scripture says, “You shall not muzzle an ox when it treads out the grain,” [Deuteronomy 25:4] and, “The labourer deserves his wages.” [Luke 10:7]
It makes a good example since it's the New Testament citing both the Old and New Testament as scripture...

Oh, and as far as your numbers are concerned - we already know some of the numbers in the Bible are wrong. All that means is that there's a few isolated errors here and there, it's barely significant. I mean it's not like having a contradicting account or something.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK


"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
