Totally NOT a debate about the veracity of the gospels

[Bucky Ball]

Are you being sarcastic? :p

No.

I am going to provide you a list of websites that I have found to be indispensable to my understanding of "bible difficulties".

http://www.str.org
http://www.bethinking.org (Deidre, in your spare time check this site out, it is awesome)
http://www.reasonablefaith.org
http://www.gotquestions.org
http://www.tektonics.org
http://www.apologetics315.com
http://www.apologeticspress.org
http://www.garyhabermas.com (considered to be The authority on the resurrection)
http://www.carm.org

Most if not all of the questions you have asked here have been answered by men and women who are experts in their related fields pertinent to the questions you are asking.

I have a wonderful book entitled: Is God a Moral Monster? by Paul Copan.

He has, in my opinion, done the most research into the difficult passages found in the OT.

Finally a fight? But what ever u do... dont grab the junk... or u will loose ur hand..

No fight. Just trying to help is all.

Actually Gary Habermas is "the expert" on nothing. He has a degree in History from a second rate school. He has NO degree in Biblical Studies, or ancient Near Eastern literature, or culture. He's a fraud, practicing in an area he has NO expertise. He's a complete idiot. No mainstream scholar does anything but laugh at the fool. I went to an "On Guard" conference, and asked him a question, and he got pissed off, and said "I don't know". He's a COMPLETE joke, as is William L. Craig. If those two are any indication of the rest on your list, you're in big trouble. Actually THE expert on the resurrection is Dr. BB Scott, at the Tulsa seminary, who wrote "The Trouble with Resurrection".

(Gary Habermas ... OMF'nG). Hahahaha
Next you'll be telling us to read Lee Bullshit Stroebel.
