Nice try bro, but next time you copy and paste from someone else's site I suggest you seriously look into it first. You see you made my point exactly, you yourself have not taken time to research or even read the scriptures. Instead you probably typed " Bible contradictions" into google and copy/pasted someone else's claims yet you indeed believed them to be true. Most of those scriptures are examples of a certain man/point in time/lesson/ect and compared to a completely different man/point in time/lesson/ect...The Bible is written much like a story with a beginning, middle, and end. It flows start to finish and excuse the pun "evolves". You are trying to take one meaning and put it in different context to mean something completely different. Much how the "church" has done throughout the ages. You my friend are not qualified to be a biblical scholar nor critic if you have not read it page to page several times at the least. That is the weapon of " Bible bashers" they completely twist a scripture or pick and choose what suits them, then flips it around and says "ah ha, i told you its false!". Yet all one has to do is read the very same scripture to see that it was a lie. Try harder.
So because the verses are summarized for a list theyre false? i took the time to read several in all translations and versions. It's not uncommon for biblical verses to be converted into "modern speak". The same bible verse you're writing off as "completely twisted" scripture, a christian book store would recommend to a teen because it's easier to read.

The reason christians have retort to this criticism is because they have the infinite loop holes to defend themselves with. If the bible says " the lord can jump higher than any man" then in another verse says " Lebron James can jump higher than the lord" the christian answer would be "God created man in his imagine, therefor Lebron is god, god can be all things and jump either high or low"

This method of manipulation has been perfected over 1000s of years. I certainly wont debate the effectiveness of it or argue that i'm mentally equip to contest it. It's structured to give a deadend to any question. The bible has an impenetrable force field of deception around it. It's not meant to be understood. That's why when you combine it with the fear of punishment and the prize of heaven, it's an extremely effective source of control. It's the same type of propaganda Bin Laden used to get people to crash planes into a building.
