    It doesn’t seem like you can contribute to any religion based discussion if you’re willing to accept that many possibilities (interpretations) of basic concepts or events. This also reminds me of how flat-earthers justify stuff.

      So you think it is smart to engage in a discussion with e.g. a Christian about Christianity while dismissing their actual beliefs and instead force your own Interpretation onto them? Do you think you can change Minds like that?

      Of course, I am willing to accept any given sincerely hold belief for the sake of the conversation when my aim is to point out contradictions or issues in their belief. Otherwise I am not really talking about their belief and the issues with it.

      And again the goal of op was to point out contradictions. That is the conversation that we are having.

      If you have an issue with how general and open the discussion in regards to the Interpretation of the text is, blame op for keeping it vague.

      Also why are you ignoring in your response anything about the fact that your injection was seemingly off-topic and the consequences of the misunderstanding that it seemingly caused? No objections or no acception? No questions? No thoughts?

      Why do you continue to be hostile? I understand that you might felt like I dismissed your point and that you thought I was trolling but it seems to me as if I made clear that I wasn’t doing either. So what is up with that?

        I have more reasons to blame the book for being vague.

        Also why are you ignoring in your response anything about the fact that your injection was seemingly off-topic and the consequences of the misunderstanding that it seemingly caused?

        I don’t see it like that.

          So just that I understand:

          Do you think that op and me weren’t specifically talking about it being contradictory?

          Do you think that your question about “how it wouldn’t make sense for God to create the sun after the light cycles” is about the bible being contradictory?

          Do you think that “does it make sense?” Isn’t off-topic in a discussion about contradictions?

          Basically what do you disagree with specifically?

            I wouldn’t call it contradictory, because the original material has to many other problems. It’s like calling coal dirty. The original post is a meme and it works fine for me.

            Other questions: ok yes even though I don’t think it matters, no, with the whole premise of injecting possibility of nonsense into the discussion in order to avoid contradictions (in a boring unfunny way).
