About this listen

Can we prove that the Bible makes false claims?

Do its moral teachings justify it being called "The Good Book?"

Has the text been modified throughout the centuries?

What about all those prophecies?

Written by a linguist, ex-fundamentalist graduate of Liberty University, this book goes straight to the evidence and presents a concise case-by-case analysis of the most salient problems in the Christian Scriptures. With insightful commentary concerning frequent rebuttals used by apologists, it makes a solid case against evangelical claims to inerrancy.

This second edition has a much improved third chapter, providing several more examples of scribal changes to the New Testament, as well as a completely new section on textual differences in Greek manuscripts.

Great read.

Accurate and very descriptive for contradiction in scripture. Both old and new Testament are covered in detail.

I liked the book. It is clear and to the point. Although there are many more, I don’t think a logical, reasonable person could refute most of the examples the author provides.
I do, however, disagree with one of the author’s conclusions. He briefly mentioned that many Christians recognize these errors and accept that God used his human believers to write such an imperfect text. Yes, I am one of those. However, he did go on to say that those people cannot believe that their religion has anything over the other religions of the world, as if that somehow discredits their stance. I would be in total agreement with the author if he went on to recognize that many of those Christians do not maintain that Christianity is superior to other world religions.
Many of us recognize that the many human errors found in the Bible and the deplorable actions committed by Christians throughout history indicate that Christianity is another very human tradition that points us toward divine truth. Other religious traditions can also point their adherents toward similar divine truths.
Those of us who remain within our Christian religious tradition value the Bible not as the word of God but as a record of ancient Jewish people’s struggle to find the divine truth.
In my biblical studies, I have uncovered multiple examples of Fundamentalist Christians who have lost their faith in God entirely upon the realization that the Bible is a fallible human book, however, for those of us whose faith in God is based on our experiences of God rather than a book, the recognition of biblical fallibility is freeing.

Someone else discovered what many of us have known for a long time.

The author rips the covers off of the bible revealing the true ugly true essence of "the word of god." Such man-made lies have corrupted human relations, especially between females and males. I believe the canons of the bible was written by ignorant fearful primitives who feared what they did not understand about nature and the dynamics of human relations. We don't need imaginary spooks to be kind and decent humans.

All the Reason I am now Agnostic

A perfect rebuttal to thousands of biblical absurdities. (Thousands in the biblical sense, heh heh). Master Jonah's bible of biblical flaws exposes the Christian Scriptures for their inherent contradictions amidst the blaringly blind propaganda of their supposed inerrant cohesiveness.

Perfect!

This book explains .. so well ...many ideas facts arguments that I can't wait to talk/debate a few apologetics. I'm definitely going to be much better armed with facts and real life comparisons and thousands of examples of what's wrong with the bible. This book brings up so many examples of stuff I never noticed or thought of or read in other books like this one

Incredibly great points so well explained

Very fair and a very straightforward common sense approach to literally just pointing out discrepancies and inconsistencies

Needs to be heard

Dull. An inventory of inconsistencies in the Bible. Doubtful that it contains ALL of them. Doesn't really cover anything new. We knew all this stuff already...or should have. Connor basically lays out some of the findings that caused him to leave the Christian faith. OK. Fair enough. But not very interesting for the rest of us. We know that the flaws in the Bible are there and that they don't matter to the devout. And, also, the narrator sounds like he is preaching to us. That's not entertaining either. Tough to find much to like here;

Connor is Not Great
