The first part in this series can be found here. Leviticus 11:6 tells us that hares chew the cud. They do not. Animals that chew the cud are called ruminants. When they eat plant matter, it goes to their first stomach to soften, and then it’s regurgitated to their mouth. They spend time re-chewing it,… Continue reading Contradictions Part 4: Hares Chewing the Cud

Continuing the series on Bible contradictions, which was begun here, I'd like to look at several brief examples that are easy to spot. Creation The creation accounts in Genesis 1 and 2 seem to have a few differences. For instance, in the first chapter, we’re told that God made all plants and trees on the… Continue reading Contradictions Part 3: Brief Examples

The Bible really contains quite a number of contradictions. This is very surprising to many people (it was to me) who grow up hearing that the Bible is inspired by God and completely free of errors. And perhaps what’s more surprising, is how easily these inconsistencies can be found when you start to look for… Continue reading Contradictions Part 2: Two Examples

Growing up, I had always thought that the Bible had no contradictions whatsoever. And to me, this was one of the biggest reasons to believe the Bible was truly inspired by God. After all, in a work this size, mere men would have made some mistakes along the way. So the Bible being without error… Continue reading Contradictions Part 1: Introduction

The first post in this series on Bible prophecies can be found here. The prophecies in the Bible are often touted to be undeniable evidence of the Bible's inspiration. But this claim is often made in the hopes that people won't actually examine the prophecies for themselves. It's the very definition of "Big Lie," where… Continue reading Prophecy Part 8: Conclusion

I began (here) a series of posts on Biblical prophecies in order to show the major problems that accompany many of them. In fact, failed prophecies are some of the strongest evidence showing the fallibility of the Bible. But in this post I’d like to take a bit of a tangent and talk about two… Continue reading Prophecy Part 7: Isaiah 53 and Psalm 22

This is the sixth part in a series of blog posts I've been doing about prophecies in the Bible (part 1 is here). The one I'd like to talk about today was one of the first ones that really hit me like a hammer when I first started examining the Bible's claims critically. In my… Continue reading Prophecy Part 6: Tyre

I’ve been working on a series of posts that examine the prophecies given in the Bible. My first post in the series can be found here. One of the best known prophecies of Christ concerns the virgin birth. In Matthew 1:18-25, we learn about Mary’s pregnancy and the birth of Jesus. In verses 22-23, we’re… Continue reading Prophecy Part 5: Virgin Birth
