    The bible does not contradict itself. The people who read and interpret it does!

    Heh, Lego. One of my favorites is the so-called messianic prophecy of the son of man riding into town on an ass, the son of a colt.

    Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout aloud, O daughter of Jerusalem! Lo, your king comes to you; triumphant and victorious is he, humble and riding on an ass, on a colt the foal of an ass. (Zechariah 9:9) - RSV

    Matthew misunderstands the passage and actually has Jesus riding on two animals:

    Matthew 21:2,4,5,7 Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me. All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass. And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon. - RSV

    Neat-o stuph....

    The bible doesn't contradict itself. It says that it doesn't, you know, in that paragraph right after it says it does.

    lamb, I believe if you do a search under the poster 'MrMoe' you will find it. I could be mistaken though but she led me to a link about it a couple of years back.

    You can also do a search on the web and come up with many site on the subject also.

    That was quite obviously a joke. Meant to be funny, not negitive. Defd, where in the bible does it even mention contridicting itself? Find that scripture, and I'll apoligize for my bad joke.
