I read some of the so called "contradictions" on your friend's atheist site. Those are all taken from different contexts and put side by side. When just those words are read alone, they seem to contradict, until you do some further reading and see that they are in different contexts.
For example, one of the so called "contradictions" was about the earth abiding forever and then it being burned up. If you read the whole Bible, particularly Revelation, you would know that God destroys everything on earth, including non-believers - so be careful, and then creates a new earth for Him and those who love Him.
All of those so called "contradictions" can be erased by someone smart enough to read the whole Bible and understand the context.
Atheists made it easy for themselves to think that there are contradictions. There they go again . . . those atheists looking for the easy way out . . . thinking that they don't have to be accountable for themselves . . . what fools huh.

I already perused the site, and most problems are easily resolved. The favorite is the supposed contradiction between Acts 9:3-7 and Acts 22:6-10; An honest examination will show, first, both passages state, that a bright light appeared, in chapter 9 the men saw no one, in 22, they saw a bright light. Very simple to explain, it was a bright, so of course they couldn't see anyone, because if they had looked into the light the brightness would have blinded them as it did to Paul(v.11) In both accounts the other men heard a sound as in chapter 9, in chapter 22, they heard something but, didn't understand it. No problem there. This supposed cited contradiction is an example of poor scholarship on the part of Atheist.com.

Too often xtians quote old testament, and ignore Jesus's views on peace for the things He didnt approve of. According to Him, only God can judge, but yet they take it upon themselves to pass judgement. Whats the saying give a fellow an inch and he takes a mile?
Most fundamentalists, Muslims Xtian and Hebrew, judge like theres no tomorrow (oops they believe that too!). Jesus talked peace, old testament talked war. Theres the problem, the Old Testament wasnt supposed to continue on. Also remember after a master dies almost always his message is lost 50 to 100 years afterwards. Why should Xtianity be any different?
I think a Master will come and convince the masses that war is not worth the cost. Of course this is just a belief........

For every argument that something is a contradiction, it is always proven otherwise by Bible scholars and people who know the Bible. Contradictions are pointed out from lack of knowledge of Gods word.

The bible has contradictions because it was written by different men, years and years apart. Like any story it grows with time. The essential message has stayed the same. Why do you care? Are you trying to convert people to atheism? I just got rid of the Jahova's Witnesses' for God's sake!

just because YOU find something that seems like a contradiction, you thing that God does not exist? Hahahahaahahahaahaaaaaaa!
I do not pretend to understand all in the Bible or in the Book of Mormon... how many mistakes are in them? How many contradictions? How many things seem like contradictions which are really not?... we will understand when we are resurrected.

Your website is just a series of misguided attempts at misrepresenting the truth. I've heard all the supposedly (contradictions) in the bible and each one when attempted is an example of taking a passage out of text.
Try as you might, the bible is God's absolute truth and cannot be refuted and the judgement layed out for all who reject it will fall on them whether they believe it or not!

The existence of Bible or any other "holly" books is a contradiction itself. If a god who is capable of anything and everything wanted to send a message to his fellow people, he would be able to -and he would- send his message to each human being one by one in a second. He, who has created the whole universe. This would save the world from wars and murders caused by those who are trying to spread their religions in the name of God, like crusaders and Jihadees. Would a God be so cruel to watch this happen. Or else, is He not clever enough to foresee this, "you infidels" !?
Today, even human-beings can manage to send their messages in minute via radios, televisions, internet etc to billions of people, and you believe god has chosen 1 person and 1 book to dictate his orders ? And this is such a book that can not be comprehended by everyone ?
Do you really believe in a great great god who is capable of anything and everything, or do you believe in an evil creator, who hates what he has created and watch them kill each other ?
Who created Bush, who created Hitler, who created Saddam and who created Bin Ladin, and for what ?

The Bible is full of contradictions because it was written by people. A bunch of different people. And then translated and translated and translated. And edited by people who want to send a certain message to the people.
Of COURSE it's contradictory.

I will examine your Bible Contradictions shortly, but before I do I can tell you the Bible doesn't contradict it's self...people just don't read it enough to know what it says.
