Interpretation is a fine and dandy way to say it, but I can back up one verse by other verses. Can Peaches back up what she's saying? Or is it just a feeling?
Equally logical? Please, back up the verses. Logic says you go with is already said. If ythe bible says more about it, logic says go with the meaning already there. Logic does not say if another verse can be read strange, you ignore all the other verses about same subject.
GHO:
Now, does anyone take the bible to be 100% accurate, that it should be read and adhered to literally, that every single utterance is totally true and not open to interpretation?
The bible is 100% accurate. But Not all of it's literal. Example, there are parables. Obviously a parable didn't literally happen. The bible is true.
GHO:
Not to mention the passage that states insects have only 4 legs.
Taken out of context. Finish the verse.
GHO:
The bible makes the following statements in detail concerning the day of the supposed resurrection
Mattew states that the boulder sealing the tomb was moved by one angel before the sight of the guards (plural) and two marys.
John states that there was only one Mary who discovered the tomb open (apparently untended) and she met two angels at the tomb later in the day, along with Jesus.
Luke mentions women (plural) finding an open tomb and finding two angels waiting (no other people).
Mark States three women, 2 Marys and Salome, who found an open tomb and one angel waiting (no people)
1 Corinthians skips any details.
What I don't understand, is you took this from the
entire day of events. Not about a minute period, where everything needs to be clear.
Let me give you an example, I work with 4 people, and that day someone is fired. Memorable and has an impact. Would all of us have the same stories? Sure We'd all have the firing, but would we have the same list of people who came down? Human resources, other people walking by, etc? We'd all get the firing down, (like they all have the resurrection), but as each of us see or value other important things, we'd write down only what we saw. What if I went to the photocopy room when human resources came by, I wouldn't even have mention of them in my report. (But does that mean human resources didn't come by if I didn't put it in my report?) When you put it in context of what would happen to you, could easily happen to them.
