Should it not be perfect if it was the words of god? [/ QUOTE ] mr moore I don't think you're taking this seriously. here's what you do. Assume its true and therefore perfect. Reject anything that would mean its unperfect - all those things must be wrong because it is perfect. Reject any interpretations that would make it inconsistant - all those must be incorrect because it is perfect. Reject any groups of more intelligent people who thinks the evidence points to it being wrong - all these people must be wrong because its true. Must be a conspiracy, obviously being intelligent they can't really believe something true is most likely false. rinse and repeat, you'll get there. chez |
