Uhh..i'm not a theology major or anything...
but I'm assuming you are reading an English bible correct?
That means it has been translated, correct?
People aren't perfect, correct?

[kovan]

i am saying that bible is corrupted, correct?
yes

[barrk]

Kovan,

Do you spend as much time reading, studying and practicing the words of the Koran as you do trying to discount another religon's holy book????

[kovan]

yes i spend probably more time reading quran than i read bible..
practice aspect of it? not as much as i want to be
if you care, i am trying to practice more and more...

[barrk]

Yes, I do care or I wouldn't have asked. I'm just trying to understand what your motivation is. Are you trying to get people to turn to your religon or just turn away from Christianity??

[kovan]

hehe have a orange juice, lay back (sorry i would offer you beer but thats againts my religion

but any how,
to answer your questions

i am NOT trying to make people come to my religion
and i am NOT trying to make people to turn away from Christianity

what i am trying to do is
SHOW those who follow bible something they never bothered looking at
so in plain english, i am trying to show them that the bible they believe in is corrupted, i feel i am doing them a favour
however not many think so
i am not using my opinion, and neither am saying "bible is corrupted because i say so"
i am giving these contridictions so that they are from bible to prove that there is contridictions

[barrk]

No...I'm not too serious. I'm just interested in people's reasons for doing things. A lot of times the REASON they are saying things is much more interesting than WHAT they are saying. Thanx for the offer of the beer but I'm at work and if I had one everyone would want one!!! Unless you'd like to buy for the whole office.

[kovan]

it sayis i WOULD offer you
i never said offered

i offered you a orange juice from arbiter's fridge thou..

[barrk]

OJ from anyone's fridge sounds good right now. It's about 90 degrees here today and it's clouding up...MUGGY and HUMID...yukkk!

[Nathan]

And here it's 5 degrees celsius and they're predicting snow for tonight with a low 3 degrees below freezing!

[barrk]

I think I'd rather have the heat! I'm in the middle of the desert in California..not used to the humidity but definitely not used to snow.

[Nathan]

I'd rather have the heat to.. I live just north of the Canada US border in Winnipeg.

[barrk]

I'll send up some heat if you'll take the clouds with it!

kovan
But I would be more motivated to chase down a doctrinal contradiction if you would provide those.

Not on "trinity".
Perhaps on "eternal versus temporal hell or punishment".
Maybe on "something else", something to shake me to my core.
