Is this a contradiction or am I reading it wrong? Genesis 5:28

[Gawdzilla Sama]

Take the volume of the Earth at sea level and add the additional volume in a sphere ~60,000 feet larger.

[Anomalocaris]

Take the volume of the Earth at sea level and add the additional volume in a sphere ~60,000 feet larger.

Yes, and the wall of that additional hollow sphere would be 4.5 billion cubic Kms.

[Gawdzilla Sama]

Cool, I broke my math bone in the 5th grade and it never healed properly. I was wondering if I was even close. T/Y

[Anomalocaris]

My compound fracture of math bone also never healed properly, so take my math with a few large crystals or rock salt.

[Neo-Scholastic]

What makes you think those are mutually exclusive?

Because we understand that the stories in the Bible are just fairytales while you are trying to find something that is not there.

There are no fairies mentioned in the Bible, ergo you are a moron who does not know anything.

[Anomalocaris]

indeed, “fairy” has a innocent, non-malicious ring to it, which makes the term unsuitable for describing any of the overreaching, domineering, malevolent bullshit tales collected together into one tome and called holy 🤣 bible.

[Fake Messiah]

Oh, I was wondering when he will start with personal insults.

Anyway,

Myths and stories about fairies do not have a single origin, but are rather a collection of folk beliefs from disparate sources. Various folk theories about the origins of fairies include casting them as either demoted angels or demons in a Christian tradition, as deities in Pagan belief systems, as spirits of the dead, as prehistoric precursors to humans, or as spirits of nature.

Ha ha ha.. just serving you your own sauce. If you had meant folk tales then you should have said folk tales. Instead you said"fairy" tales even though the fey are never mentioned.

Ha ha ha...how about the second paragraph?

"Myths and stories about fairies do not have a single origin, but are rather a collection of folk beliefs from disparate sources.

And since the point is fairy tales, not fairies, this bit may be more germane:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairy_tale

A fairy tale (alternative names include fairytale, fairy story, magic tale, or wonder tale) is a short story that belongs to the folklore genre. Such stories typically feature magic, enchantments, and mythical or fanciful beings. In most cultures, there is no clear line separating myth from folk or fairy tale; 

In other words, fairies are not a necessary component of fairy tales. I don’t think anyone can sensibly argue that the Bible doesn’t include ‘magic, enchantments, and mythical or fanciful beings.’ Some of the stories in the Bible certainly qualify.
