A related question: Can you think of a fictitious example of two scriptures (i.e., hypothetical only -- they are not really in the Bible) that nobody could reconcile if they tried to?
E.g., suppose one verse said "There was a lion in the room", and another, referring to the same event at the same place and at the same time, "There was no lion in the room". Would anyone here say that these two verse contradicted each other? Would Lafon have to throw out the entire Bible if those verse really were in the Bible?
My guess: no. Nobody here (with a few exceptions
) would dare to say that these verses contradicted each other. Some would be so bold as to say explicitly that they don't even see how anyone could claim they are contradictory (as they have pretty much said that about other claims of contradiction).
Why is that? What obligation do you think you have to believe the Bible is true no matter what? Why such fear?
