Is the Flood Story True?
by JosephAlward inthose who have not yet relinquished their right to think for themselves should be virtually certain that the story of noah and the ark is a fable.
those who believe the bible's stories are literally true find it almost impossible to address with a straight face the problems presented below.. then the flood came which destroyed every living thing which was not in the ark: "and every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark.
" (genesis 7:23).

yahweh speaking: "i am the alpha and the omega," says the lord god" (revelation 1:8).
more yahweh: "i am the alpha and the omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.

Creation Stories
by JosephAlward in.
where do the bible-believers in this forum stand on the genesis creation?
is it one story told by one author, the same story told twice with different emphasis by the same author, the same story told twice with different emphasis by two different authors, or two different stories told by two different authors, or two different--and conflicting--stories told by two different authors?

Jacob's Branches and Genetics: Bible Error
by JosephAlward injoe alward.
about a year ago i raised this issue of the bible-writers' apparent belief that the color of one's offspring is determined in part by what you're looking at while you're mating.
we didn't obtain then what i considered a satisfactory resolution of this problem, so i'm presenting it once again for the forum's consideration:.

Bible: Women are Inferior
by JosephAlward inno teaching in the bible is clearer and more consistent than the one which holds women to be inferior to men.
below i show that it is taught that the woman was created from man, for man, that man--not woman--is the glory of god, and that women are not allowed to teach or control man because the woman, not the man, is the one who was deceived by the serpent.
" (1 corinthians 11:2-9) "for a man...is the image and glory of god: but the woman is the glory of the man.

by JosephAlward injoe alward .
the bible contradicts itself in the matter of punishing children for the sins of their fathers.
in one place is says that it is strictly forbidden, but in another the lord speaks of slaughtering sons for the sins of their forefathers, and in yet another place the lord orders the murder of suckling babes.
