As if there are not plenty of contradictions within the Bible itself, not to mention everyone who interprets the Bible to their liking - which accounts for even more contradictions...
I will grant you the second, but not the first. If you post contradictions to this thread, I will ignore them. But if you create another thread you will get plenty of answers, some from me.
As to the issue of misinterpretations, I have found that those who are reading the Bible to support their own agendas often disagree. But those who approach it with a humble heart, searching for what G-d would say, tend to agree strongly even when they have never spoken with each other about the topic before.
That's my experience. Yours may vary.
Shalom.
