this answer was given to me by a user -
"Statistically, the New Testament is 99.5% textually pure. That means that there is only 1/2 of 1% of of all the copies that do not agree with each other perfectly. But, if you take that 1/2 of 1% and examine it, you find that the majority of the "problems" are nothing more than spelling errors and very minor word alterations. "
How was the conclution that the bible was 99.5% accurate made. was it a scientific procedure used in making this conclusion, if so why does religion deny science but when it helps in making religion look good they accept it?

If Jesus Christ or God is of no importance, why do people use His name to swear by? Why do you never hear people swearing by Allah, Vishnu, some other deity - or using their own names, for that matter?
I find that curious. What are your thoughts?

If Christians believe that animals do not have souls, then why do many of them have pets? That would be pretty pointless, if they don't have souls and they can't love you back..... Wouldn't it be just like having a rock that could move as a pet??

When in worship, Satan tries clouding our minds. Making us feel stupid and useless. If we are not effective then why does he try to stop us?

Is it very christian like to take away the persons very identity? Even if the person accepted christ why can't they retain their cultural name which their parents gave them? I know a lot of people who are very depressed with the odd hours of work, and loss of identity and the lying that these american companies ask these innocent people to do to sell stuff. They would be willing to go with their true names and location but the companies insist on it as policy. Is this good christian and business ethics?

That when people ask a legitimate question let say about were the concept of 24 hours in a day came form, or anything else that can not actually be found in the bible (which should only be interpreted and not taken literally) then people attack them and call them stupid? What make you better than anyone else to make them feel like they are stupid for asking a question that they are curious about?

From the USS LIBERTY, to getting the USA TO BOMB LIBYA for YOU in the 1980's, To Knowing About The US MARINE BARRACKS and US EMBASSY BOMBINGS in 1983 AND LETTING THEM HAPPEN to Continually SPYING on AMERICA, to Selling Top SECRET AMERICAN SECRETS to an ENEMY CHINA, to PLANTING SPIES in the US GOVERNMENT, to KNOWING ABOUT THE 9/11 ATTACKS IN ADVANCE because of your SPY RING that Included 100 ISRAELI SPIES in AMERICA that was Busted Right After 9/11, to CELEBRATING the 9/11 ATTACKS By DANCING, SINGING, HIGH FIVING, MAKING FUNNY FACES, LAUGHING with JOY, TAKING PICTURES and CHEERING the Death and Destruction in Manhattan and the Death of the Thousands of Americans, ........ AND THE LIST GOES ON AND ON AND ON, etc etc etc.

is it judaism? is it christianilty? or islam ?
becouse there are great religion,s on the earth
judaism and christianity
reason,s ?
book,s nobody can read 100,s of books
even somebody can but how he judge with conflicted verses
both of religion,s dont have complete way of life....why?
both religion,s have been expired & edited by human hand,s
even what they have to follow they dont even follow this too
just saying that we are forgiven becouse Jesus paid for our sin,s
100,s of scientific error,s have been found in bible
soo how come a logical and scientific beleiver
can understand the religion
without any evidence to prove itself word of GOD
and there first proirity not to teach there religion just dictate people
JEW,s and CHRISTIAN,s rejected messenger,s of GOD
how? jew,s rejected Jesus as messenger of GOD
christian,s rejecting mohd(saw)
that is my opinion what do u think about it ?
no stupid,s are allowed

Do they understand that most concepts in science are considered theories? This is because only mathematical formulas can be proven true. The same cannot be said for ideas. The idea of gravity is a theory as well, but I don't see theists disputing it very often. Perhaps they are confusing theory with hypothesis. Again, is this just a lack of formal education, lack of curriculum in public schools, or something more sinister like religion blinding people to the facts?

Please don't start talking about evolution, because I know that is a theory. It can't be 100% proven.

...................despite the fact that he was born 4 years after jesus' supposed death and if any of them had ever actually bothered to read his work, all references to jesus come from second hand sources who were all supporters of the jesus cult and were therefore hardy neutral "external sources" as they are often claimed to be.

It was as if the only neutral document on nazi Germany was written based on information given by a nazi party supporter.

It would of course not be reliable nor balanced.

Even so many researchers such as Edwin Yamauchi and John P. Meier have stated

"The problem with the copies of Antiquities is that they appear to have been rewritten in favor of Jesus as they are very favorable, some say too favorable to have been written by a Jew. Add to this that the Christians were the ones who kept and made the copies of the Josephus documents throughout history and you have a shadow of doubt cast upon the quotes. "
