"The King James version of the Bible is riddled with errors, mistranslations and contradictions."


The reliablity and unity of the Bible is a topic that is worth exploring. The bible is remarkably internally consistent with itself and remarkably externally constistent with the rest of the world (archaeology/other historical documents). Former sceptic Josh McDowell writes: "One of the unique and fascinating aspects of the Bible is that in no other religious literature do we find the accuracy of fulfilled prophecy. Biblical predictions recorded sometimes hundreds of years in advance of their happening are fulfilled in minute detail." There have been many people in history that set out to prove the bible is false, only to conclude that the bible is right after all.

Why do so many claim to be former skeptics?
It's not whether the Bible is true or false. It's a collection of stories. Some are true, some are embellished and some are myth.
Hint: Was Jesus a carpenter or a Rabi?
