Talk:Essay:Adulteress Story (view source)
Revision as of 00:55, April 12, 2008
, 00:55, April 12, 2008→Inspired Word of God or Not: reply to Steve
:::::::::::::There is absolutely a slippery slope and you have shocked and disappointed me by taking the most liberal position I've ever known you to have. I'm taking time away from my essay to warn you of what my Pastor told me. Once you make yourself judge of what in the Bible can be authentic and what can not be authentic, nothing is off limits. No one can no for sure that there is not some earlier manuscript ''with'' the account of the adulteress in it. When you begin to make yourself guardian of the scriptures, protecting it and "making reversions as in a wiki," you are taking authority from God. Don't you trust Him to keep His own Word infallible? --[[User:StevenM|Steve]] 10:36, 10 April 2008 (EDT)

:::::::::::::: Steve, your point is well taken. I haven't been ignoring it, but have been reflecting on it. We agree that the Bible is the Word of God, but I can't say that a particular translation or version is perfect.
:::::::::::::: I see obvious conflicts between the adulteress story and the [[Gospels]] and feel that removing it on the grounds that it is not authentic would result in a strengthening of [[faith]]. In fact, I expect that eventually one or more [[conservative]] [[Christian]] churches will do exactly that.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 20:55, 11 April 2008 (EDT)
::I do not believe that Aschlafly is making an error here. The Bible has many insertions and contradictions that have been added over the centuries. Many of them, as Aschlafly notes, were probably added by liberals. I propose that Conservapedia start a project to revert these insertions, and make a truly conservative Bible available online.--[[User:Mathewson|Mathewson]] 12:02, 10 April 2008 (EDT)
