I’d rather that they be logically consistent, and if that makes them enemies, then so be it. If they want to believe that the Bible is an inaccurate account, and some other evidence they have dug up gives the accurate account, then they should just say that. It would be better than saying that this evidence helps “reconcile” the Bible, as if the Bible needs their help in order to be true.

Are you concerned about the Bible being true, or you being right?

“Are you concerned about the Bible being true, or you being right?”

Actually, neither. I believe the Bible is true, but its truthfulness isn’t dependent on me, so I am not concerned with that. I also believe that I’m right, but I’m not very concerned about it.

What I am concerned about is people being inconsistent in their arguments, or not following them to their logical conclusions. When people do that, it leads to all manner of hypocrisy and just muddies the waters. This is why liberals love relativism, because it allows them to indulge in hypocrisies and jump to illogical conclusions, with no consequences. We should aspire to be better than that.
