I have the answer. Do you?
One time a atheist said" The 3 stories about Christ say: 2 books say Judas hung himself in the field he bought with blood money, and one says when he was in the field his gut ruptured and his intestins spilled out." If the Bible is true how  is this true?

There is a true answer
Do you know it?

[falcon9]

I have the answer. Do you?

Yes, the entire superstitious myth is baseless and therefore, not a basis of rational argument.  As a basis for irrational, specious arguments, the "bible" is hard to beat.


"The study of theology,  as it stands in Christian churches, is the study of nothing; it is founded on nothing; it rests on nothing; it proceeds by no authorities; it has no data; it can demonstrate nothing."
--Thomas Paine, in The Age Of Reason

[lhz123]

You were told that your foolish desires will destroy you and that you must give up your old way of life with all its bad habits. Let the Spirit change your way of thinking and make you into a new person. You were created to be like God, and so you must please him and be truly holy. — Ephesians 4:22-24 (CEV)

Ephesians 4:22-24 (CEV)

Religious self-delusion is a self-inflicted blindness and a self-imposed deafness to reason.

Romans 12:2 (KJV)

"And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."

(NIV)

"Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is – his good, pleasing and perfect will."

Romans 12:2 (KJV)

“You can not convince a believer of anything; for their belief is not based on evidence, it is based on a deep-seated need to believe.”
-– Carl Sagan

Romans 5:1 (NIV)

"Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."

[falcon9]

Romans 5:1 (NIV)
"Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ."

"Faith" is an empty 'justification since it rests upon belief without evidence and results in such self-delusions as espoused by it's religious followers.

James 1:19-21 Remember this, my dear friends! Everyone must be quick to listen, but slow to speak and slow to become angry. Human anger does not achieve God's righteous purpose. So get rid of every filthy habit and all wicked conduct. Submit to God and accept the word that he plants in your hearts, which is able to save you. (GNT)

[falcon9]

James 1:19-21 
"Submit to God and accept the word that he plants in your hearts ..."

Conversely, refuse to "submit" to a mythological egregore which has no attibutable evidence of existing and reject the propaganda of such empty promises of 'prizes' before & after physical death.  Do not surrender reason to blind faith or, though 'living', you'd already be 'dead'.

[jcribb16]

Hebrews 11:1

"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."   (NIV)

[falcon9]

Hebrews 11:1
"Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see."   (NIV)

That's a pretty 'faithful' description of blind belief alright.  Being "sure" and "certain" of that which lacks supportive evidence takes a 'leap of blind faith', (try that at the metaphorical cliff's edge of reason and *see* what happens).

[jcribb16]

 Hebrews 4:12


"For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart."   (NIV)

[falcon9]

Hebrews 4:12
"For the word of God is alive and active."

There's no evidence extant for this religious belief.

"... it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart." 

No, it doesn't since this is merely a faith-based, (no supporting evidence), religious belief.  Such proselytizing is rude and disrespectful of those who aren't impaired by irrationality.

[lhz123]

John 6:29 Jesus answered, “What God wants you to do is to believe in the one he sent.” (GNT)
