IIRC he might be able to point to yet more contradictions in related holy texts that didn't make it into the official version, and the historical context of why they might not have made it into the official version.
    Well your in luck, I will be doing a thread showing how conservative theologians have responded to the supposed contradictions and show they come from lack of understanding, or often translation mistakes from the king james. I never said people wont claim such, liberals will claim almost anything. I said their is no contradictions that can be shown to be true properly understood. This thread however is on islam.

    PFH isn't a liberal claiming these things. He's a scholar in theology who's studied the texts and history constituting the Bible. He knows rather more about these things than you. And there shouldn't be any distinction between liberals and conservative theologians. There are scholars who apply proper rigour to their study of historical evidence, and there are frauds.

    Members thankful for this post (2):

    I agree, this is how it should be, but the human heart makes this impossible. This can very easily be demonstrated when i do the thread.

    Why is it impossible when PFH has already demonstrated it? How can we take you seriously when your arguments have already been refuted by people who know their stuff? Has there been new evidence brought into the discussion? Has the bible been updated with additional chapters?
