I love it when the biblically illiterate try to use the bible to
support their inane claims and
discredit the bible.

Next, the contradictory selections you mention are quite often a
matter of not understanding
what is being read.

This is the part I just love about interpreting the bible with the
eye of faith.

STOP.

No eyes of faith needed.

Just a good understanding of ancient hebrew and greek as well as an idea of how they used slang
as we use slang today.

I must congratulate you on the fact that in about three thousand years
of biblical interpretation, you are the first to discover the true
truth, as opposed to the false truth (or is it the true falseness)
that all previous people were content to believe. It is a remarkable
testament to your ability.

He must be devoting all of his neurons to biblical interpretation,
which explains how he couldn't figure out how a supposedly "psychic
webpage" worked.
