Fundamentalists and Biblical Inerrantists Don't Respect the Bible
October 19, 2013 at 3:40 pm
As a former fundamentalist Christian, I've come to realize that despite the fact that Biblical inerrantists place such stock in the Bible, they do not respect it. A clear demonstration of this, to me, is the tacit admission by them that for the Bible to be of value and contain wisdom, it must be without error throughout and literally true (aside from things like parables and such), thus demonstrating its divine origin. I find this absurd a bad way to treat ancient texts. Are the Homeric epics worthless because they probably weren't written by a 'Homer' and didn't actually happen? Or any other ancient text?
