episode 32: Three Fatal Flaws of Christianity and Ten Fatal Flaws of The Bible: The contradictions and immoralities are just two of them.
"1. The New Testament manuscripts contain more differences than it has words:
Bart Ehrman, a former evangelical and fundamentalist, who graduated from Moody Bible Institute and Wheaton College before obtaining his Masters in Divinity and PhD at Princeton Theological Seminary and now one of the world’s most respected New Testament scholars, cites a fact that has been documented by many other scholars that the New Testament manuscripts have more variants than there are words in the New Testament…well over 200,000 of them. Some scholars now count closer to 400,000 of them.
While most do not affect any doctrine, there are some that make a big difference in how it is interpreted. Dr. Ehrman explains many of these in detail in his sixth New York Times bestselling book, Misquoting Jesus, the Story Behind who Changed the Bible and Why.
If it was the intention for a perfect, all-knowing God to inspire a perfect book so that His creatures would have His word and instructions, it would be of little value unless He made sure all copies of it were also correctly copied. Surely, one should expect that a perfect God would have his word made available to every creature that is 100% accurate and not have over 200,000 variants in the copies."
