''Ok first of all: 1. I DON'T need ANY defense against the bible other than the fact you nor anyone else can give me ANY evidence for the truth of it. And until I know of any evidence its by default to be considered untrue.
And secondly 2: The OT explicitly has repeated gruesome horror in it. How do you interpret THAT?
And, if Christopher Hitchens is correct the original OT didn't have a heaven or hell in it. It was introduced in the original NT. So there was no eternal punishment until the NT. So in a way the NT is arguably worse than even the horrors of the OT. What would you think of that? I don't study the bible myself so perhaps I should ask you? That's why I said "If" and not "I know this".
Occam's razor completely disposes of the supernatural.''
I'll see what Daystar says and then I'll give you my answers to your points. Good points to note, by the way....
