Does the Errancy of Fundamentalism Disprove the God of the Bible?

Having reading problems, Ray? If you're going to be shown the direct text of the Bible, and then say "no, it doesn't say that," you've proven yourself completely unsuitable for any meaningful dialogue.If, indeed, your need to proclaim Biblical inerrancy extends to denying what the Bible literally says, what the hell is the point? What's the point in being a Biblical inerrantist if you're just going to pretend like it says whatever you want it to say? No, they don't. From your own links:

However, the Hebrew phrase for ”chew the cud’ simply means ”raising up what has been swallowed’... The food goes right through the rabbit and is passed out as a special type of dropping.

If they're defecating it, they're not "raising it up", now are they?So, you're saying that creationists can't tell the difference between vomiting and defecation? That, literally, they can't distinguish between an anus and a mouth?Your links amount to nothing more than "oh, it's close enough, don't bother us." Sure, it's close enough for a human book. We would expect mistakes in a human book.In a divine book? Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades, like my dad says. I would expect God, of all people, to be able to make sure the Hebrew bible authors knew a rabbit's asshole from a hole in the ground.

Rabbits do not chew cud but practice what is known as refection.Refection which is the eating of specific pellets from their anus that are swallowed whole and NOT chewed.The AiG is in error by falsely stating: This is incorrect. First feces is not cud and second they do not chew this material.

But other than that, it's completely inerrant! Cuz of God!See?

Cold Foreign Object That is completely besides the point. To say that the sun stood still in the sky or that the shadow on the sundial of Ahaz moved back 10 degrees {even worse} is to report a phenomena involving the stopping or reversing of the Earth's rotation about its axis and this reported phenomena has the results I listed in the previous post. And that was just a small sampling of the effects that would occur.

A yet another fact.The Bible has reported a fact: persons living in said time period believed that the divine was embodied by a patriarchal being with a bronze-age moral development, war lord orientation and a mindset very similar to other surrounding cultures.Edited by iceage, : No reason given.

Not really trying to play Devils Advocate here ( Hi, I'm the new guy in town lol ) BUT...IF we are talking about the Christian God, who exists outside of time space and matter and is ( as it says ) all powerful...then you have to look at it from the point of view that if God created the Laws, God can make them do anything, react anyway, behave different for a time.I think a good amount of people subscribe to the "anything can happen" or "anything is possible" way of thinking in the world, there for I think that at times, one must put them selves in the shoes of others and see it from that point.Again, talking about the Christian God... anything is possible.Just a thought

back to the original topic: I forget the mans name, I just read about him and this way of thought (I know he was a member of the Church) and this was a way of thinking that was accepted for quit sometime BUT...
It is a flawed way of thinking. Example:1) If I turn on a light switch, and a light comes on I have electricity
2) If lights come on I have electricity from the power company
3) Electricity comes from the power company
4) lightning is electricity
5) lightning comes from the power companyI know its not the BEST example but I just wanted to point out that that circular reasoning doesn't work here in this topicAlso one cannot blame God for mans Sins anymore than I can blame the manufacturer of my truck when it breaks down because I failed to take care of what was "perfect" when made.Remember that ( if you believe the Bible ) Adam brought sin into the world, not God.Just my 2 cents

Welcome to the board.
Some things about your example logic statement.
First, the conlusion is valid based off of the premises. One of the premises is wrong though (and I think you know which one).Second, it's not an example of circular reasoning. An example of circular reasoning is . Or, using something to affirm itself. An apple is red because it is red. Water is blue because its blue.Oh, one final thing. I believe it's Eve who brought sin into the world--she ate the apple first, right? Gonna play devil's advocate, at least know the devil.

your right on the circular reasoning ( and I think you knew I knew that... err.. yeah lol )as for eve eating the apple first you are absolutely correct. but I guess it depends on your Faith too:

Adam and Eve's sin, as recounted in the Book of Genesis is sometimes called in Hebrew (the original sin), on the basis of the traditional Christian term. But the term used in classical Jewish literature is (the sin of the first man, or of Adam)

​

God "caused to grow every tree that is pleasing to the sight and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil" (Gen. 2:9, NASB). While not forbidding Adam, in that state, to eat of the tree of life, God forbade him to eat the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, warning him that he would surely die if he did (Gen. 2:16-17). The serpent persuaded Eve to eat from the latter tree and "she gave also to her husband with her, and he ate" (Gen. 3:6, NASB)(from HERE)

so I guess its how you define it, but yes eve ate first But God told Adam not eve that he would pay the price ( and he brought Original Sin in to the world from his act, not hers )
*I know the devil

QIt still remains that the rest of the world did not witness such a singularly impressive phenomena and duly record its occurrence.As it stands the Christian God does not even manage to be outside of time space and matter since he frequently reeks havoc in this sort of way which means deliberately manipulating these properties that ,as you mention, he is supposed to be outside of.
Since the question asked pertained to factual errors we can safely assume ,in my humble view, that we are talking about the world we interact with normally and not capriciously changed as seen fit by this immoral excuse for a God.Welcome to the goldmine Q. Please enjoy your stay here.Edited by sidelined, : No reason given.

Q Really? Care to explain what it means for anything to be possible for God?

was pointing out that if ones thinking of God being All-Powerful then anything is possible. Thats all it ment

Please cite some scriptures...no, just one scripture that is false in the bible.

Let's begin with Genesis 1.The earth has NEVER been covered in water. We can of course move on from there.

Aslan is not a Tame Lion

Prove it. Prove to me that the earth has NEVER been covered in water. You can't do it can ya. Just saying that the earth has never been covered isn't good enough. You know it isn't
