There is not one contradiction in the Bible. If you do not believe me, please give me the verse(s) and I will show you.

The only people mentioned in Ye Creation Myth and Faerie Taele, who we are all supposedlt decended from, are the famous Adam and Eve, who had only two sons Cain and Abel. In an equally famous story, Cain killed Abel. Psychologists call this the first case of extreme sibling rivalry ever. Cain went on to have a family himself. WITH WHO? Sex with one's mother is clearly verboten. (Lev. 18:7), the same stretch that forbids teh ghey also forbids incest, but we don't hear too much about that. Might want to allow abortion in case of it, sneaky devils that we are.
The part about Juda dying.
And the part about what time of day Jesus died.
And which 10 commandments, I heard there's like 3. That's like... 13 commandments.
How many clean animals did Noah take on the ark, 2 pairs, 1 pairs, or 7 pairs?
Is it 'soda' or 'pop'?
please give me the verse(s) and I will show you.
Matthew: Judas gave back the money and hanged himself.
Acts: Judas kept the money and bought a field with it, then fell and burst open.
Now "show" us without inventing improbable nonsense out of thin air that isn't in the Bible such as,
Judas hanged himself; but maybe the rope broke (or the corpse rotted) and he fell and burst open.
"Hanging" really means falling on the sword, so when he "hanged" himself, he actually burst open.
Judas hanged himself, but it doesn't say he died; so maybe he didn't. Then maybe later he fell and burst open.
Judas gave the money back and the priests bought a field with it, so really Judas bought the field, since he supplied the money.
@John "Matthew: Judas gave back the money and hanged himself.
Acts: Judas kept the money and bought a field with it, then fell and burst open."
Oh, it's better than that...
Matthew: Judas threw the money into a synagogue, went off and hung himself... later, the synagogue used the money to buy the field that Judas hung himself in for a burial place for Foreigners, which is why it's called the Field of Blood.
Acts: Judas kept the money and bought a field that he could farm... at some later time, while farming he fell over and burst asunder and his intestines fell out, which is why it is called the Field of Blood.
Contradictions... How Judas died, who bought the field, was Judas alive when the field was bought, why was the field bought, why it got the name it did...
Dr. Gus DiZerega has written a page-long list of contradictions in the Bible. It's in his book, "Pagans & Christians."
He did a good enough job that I don't feel like listing all those verses myself.
Maybe "Judas bought the field" is akin to today's "Junior bought the farm"
haha just kidding. Shit, you have to laugh at this stuff.
Officer, that ain't my shit, I don't know how it got into my wallet.
Besides, uh, some dude threw it in my car window just now. Yeah, that's it - a bushy haired stranger.
Hey, how was I to know I had that shit on me? Besides, I was on my way to the po-leece station to turn it in, Yeah. True story.
Waddaya mean, stick to one story...
I'm seeing a lot of the creation story contradiction and I actually argued that once.
The response I got was that the first one was a overview and the second one was how humans were created. (Basically, a literary device)
Then again, this guy keeps bashing me for anything I said.(I said this argument when I was newly deconverted)
@The Quote At Hand
He's right. There's not one, there's over 400.

Forget giving people like this lists of contradictions. They can wave them all away by changing the meanings of words, explaining that it doesn't really mean what it says, or making up some implausible story that includes two contradictory elements.
@DJ Shire: Not in New England. You drink soda, but in Boston it may be tonic. Pop is Dad. If you call it soda pop, you mark yourself as a tourist from the Midwest as surely as if you wore your Chicaco Bears shirt.
In Chapter 3 of John, he tells us that Jesus baptized people; then, in Chapter 4 of the same[4:1-2], he tells us that Jesus didn't baptize people.
That's always a good one. ^^
In Genesis Adam and Eve are the only two humans in the world, they have two children, one dies. There's no mention of any other children, yet in the very next chapter said surviving child suddenly has a wife. Where did she come from, hmmmm?
Confused?
