But some think it is good. So I feel compelled to address it and will do so when time permits me.
I think it's a perfect argument against the Bible being the inerrant word of God. It was written by humans, who aren't perfect, so their different perspectives play a part in what was written. This is a perfect argument to use against fundamentalist Christians who believe that the Bible is truly perfect and that every word should be taken literally.
But for those Christians who don't believe that the Bible is the literal word of God, I'll agree that by itself, this isn't a good argument against Christianity. But I'm also still trying to understand exactly what those Christians do believe.
