"...condemning everything in it , because of some things that are not understood or appreciated ."
Actually it is those things which are clearly understood about the Bible that brings it condemnation. My list above provides examples.
i know many on here have lost faith in the bible , is it possible that is because ones do not have the right perspective regarding it .
we have usually been taught by bad teachers , or ignorant .
i believe if we take an honest look at the bible , we will see that it gives us the best answers to crucial matters , it gives us some amount of bearings ( understanding ) , which without having such knowledge we would all be more like walking zombies in amanner of speaking , we would be lacking hope in something better , for surely something better is to come , how can we be sure , .

But most scientists, like the rest of us, need to have use of our arms and fingers to do any research. There may be exceptions like Stephen Hawking but without the ability to direct input to computers, papers, etc. they are not going to be very useful.
you know, i always maintained that during this fading process, and while learning ttatt, i would not let myself get "bitter twisted and angry".... but, in all honesty, if i examine myself, i have become quite bitter toward the org, toward the false friends and the gb.. i have become angry as i see the extent of damage i feel being raised in "the truth" has done.... i feel hurt towards the lost opportunities in life etc.... how do i not allow myself to get too swallowed up by such bitterness?.
i have always been a very happy, positive, selfless person.
i can put people at ease, i am someone people feel comfortable chatting to.

"From all that VI gave regarding inconsistencies, shows how the Bible was not plagiarized , think about this , the way some scriptures read , you can find something that is contradicting within a single chapter of the Bible , like an idiot wrote it ."
I gave more than just inconsistencies from the Bible. I provided scriptures which clearly indicate a morally torpid mentality.

It would probably be more practical to graft a head unto a bionic body. I don't think they'll be able to solve the tissue rejection issue. Then again the head would have no immune system. Problematic to say the least.

"To say that the bible is all the things that Cofty mentioned because of cultural attitudes of the time would mean YHWH was relenting to the desires of these tribal sheepherders to follow their culture over TRUE morality."
Excellent point. This can be used as an answer to both Conservative and Liberal Christians who want to ignore the profanity of their Bible.
As regards Deuteronomy 25:11-12 you quoted one of my favorite verses in the Bible.
PS: You may want to correct your citation of that verse in your image. It's Deuteronomy chapter 25 verses 11 and 12.
