Answer 2

The funny thing about apologetics is,  they try to make "miracles" seem plausible.

I have to chuckle at that.  If they were plausible, they wouldn't be "miracles".

Answer 3

Because of the lies of men and the false gospels that every one of the Christian sects read...only the true Bible of x can be true, and all the others is false and "Of the Devil!!!"

See how stupid that sounds sometimes?

Answer 4

There are no errors....only errors in your understanding of it....

Answer 6

I think the better question is, why are those that would point out reasons why others would think there are errors in the bible, are called APOLOGISTS?   What are they apologizing for?

No, don't tell me that "apologists" are just names called by those that dispute the inerrancy of the bible, the apologists themselves use the same name.

Answer 7

If the consequence of us not understanding correctly is ETERNAL agony and pain, I would make it clear for my creation to understand.

Answer 8

no, god was drunk at the time

Answer 9

and what are these "errors" you speak of? examples please.  

Answer 10

Errors exist in the Bible only in the minds of those that hate God. Typos and transliterations are common in every ancient text.

Apologetics serves to correct PERCEIVED error, and to give a better understanding to Bible application.

Answer 11

There are only "errors" for those who refuse to follow the truth.

Answer 12

You also have to remember that the translation of the Bible that you use is just that, a translation. If any of you speak a foreign language you know not everything translates. As the books were when originally written by the prophets there were no errors. However, errors have crept in due to the mistakes of men while translating the books of the Bible in numerous languages. Take the KJV for instance. It used for the NT: High Correspondence to the Beza 1589 edition of the Textus Receptus, similar to the Byzantine text-type; some readings derived from the Vulgate. The OT used: Masoretic Text with Septuagint influence. Apocrypha: Septuagint with Vulgate influence. None of these documents originated in English.

Answer 13

because they feel all defensive when the obvious errancy is pointed out to them.

BEWARE THE BANANA, THE ATHEIST'S NIGHTMARE!!

Answer 14

By the Same Logic, One Would Expect it to Be Immutable too.

Answer 15

they will not admit that the bible is only god-inspired... just like fairy tales are fairy-inspired.
