If you do find things you disagree with, tell what they are and why you disagree with them.

I find that I disagree with certain interpretations such as Noah's flood. If the whole Earth was flooded do you really think Noah rounded up sloths, alligators kangaroos and polar bears? And if he did, how did they get back to where they came from? Did the Kangaroos hop all the way back to Australia? I think the answer is that (because the bible is shockingly historically accurate) there was a flood. But it only flooded the areas around Gallelie (or however it's spelled). It would have the same effect. Noah and the crew would think it was the whole world anyway. So I'm not saying exactly that I disagree with the bible so much as the common interpretation of some parts like the Noah story.

I use to find things I disagreed with, then after deep study of most of them I came to understand why they happened or why God had them do this or that. There still are a few I don't fully understand but after the Holy Ghost enlightened me to some of them after much study and prayer. Now I have to say that I no longer disagree with what is written in the Bible but do as yet lack understanding of a few things to fully comprehend those scriptures and events.

Not really. There are things I read that I don't understand, and that can be frustrating. But to flat-out disagree with the Bible? No. God is always right, who am I to say otherwise? The fact that I don't understand something does not mean that the Bible is wrong....it means that I don't get it yet. And if I read something I do not like to hear, that also does not make the Bible wrong - it makes me wrong for being stubborn.

I find many things I do not understand, which forces me to study further and work harder than I would like sometimes. What I have found so far is that things I was taught by other people are not always what the Bible actually says. Also, what the Bible says for one people in one situation (like the Israelites in the desert) is not meant to be for me, a Gentile in the 21st century. When I apply this kind of study and reasoning, much becomes clear.

no not disagree with, If you know your Bible well, you'll learn how to "rightfully divide the word of truth" there arent any contradictions in it, there seem to be, if you dont know scripture well enough to know how to interpret it. But heres the miracle , 66 books in the Bible, the writers are all from different times and places, yet the revelations GOD gives them are all the same. and they write them down, now approximetely, 2000 to 4000 years later they are all bound up in one book. these guys did not have UPS, FEDex, internet, TV , the postal service or radio. how did it happen, if you believe its just coincidence that these 66 books got together and have been changing peoples lives for almost 4000 years, go ahead, you got more faith than i do! GOD BLESS you

I know the Bible pretty well, yet I do not disagree with it. Amazing, I know.
See, you have to read the whole book...not just pick two verses and say, "See!? They disagree!" You have to read the context, the history/timeline, and the setting.
Example: Read Lord of the Rings. At one point, we see Gandalf die. In another part, we see his is alive again! Ha! If we skip the part in the middle where he fights and is reborn as Gandalf the White, we only see confusion.

It isn't that I disagree with any of it. I read like I would any ancient document, and I try to understand it as the author intended. In general, I agree with the underlying message. So, for example, Luke says that the disciples remained in Jerusalem after the crucifixion. I don't believe that's how it happened - but neither did Luke. He wrote it that way on purpose in order to support his overall narrative. So it isn't that I agree or disagree with him, I just try to understand his theological paradigm (and I agree with that).
It's like Homer. There are no parts of the Odyssey that I agree or disagree with. I just try to understand what Homer was trying to say. The same could be said for any work of art. I don't agree or disagree with Beethoven's 5th symphony or Shakespeare's Sonnets.

Not that I really disagree.... Who am I to do that ??... there are a few things I question..... things that are not explained fully in the Bible.... like the begining of the earth and life...... and what and where is the *Garden* ?? simple things, not major or important to my salvation..... I am just a real curious and noisy person...... I like to know all the answers.... *sigh*..... go in peace..... God bless
