The bible strikes 13



As even the most simple message can be misunderstood or misinterpreted, let me explain my points:

1. The bible gives clear and specific directions as to how leprosy can be cured, (Leviticus 14).

2. That advice given is provably false.

3. Therefore the bible cannot be the infallible, inerrant word of a god. Once it is shown that the bible contains provable nonsense the clock, so to speak, has struck 13. It forces any rational person to question anything and everything else in the bible.

4. The idea that the bible contains scientific foreknowledge is a joke. Those that seek to show that it does end up using tactics that are nothing short of dishonest.

5. The idea that "running water", as appears in Leviticus 15.13, foretell of germ theory is risible at best. Leviticus 15 follows on from the advice on leprosy given in Leviticus 14. To select one verse from 3 chapters (see also Lev 13) to support the argument of biblical foreknowledge and ignore the context of that one selected verse is dishonest.
