:Sorry I took offense. He was not saying that he believed the bible was inaccurate, just in regards to science. You can reword the phrase. The bible is inaccurate to explain science. It just sounded like the Rev doesn't believe in the bible, which he does. Bloke? Are you from down under? My apologies. --[[Image:50 star flag.png|14px]] [[User:Jpatt|jp]] 17:35, 11 September 2008 (EDT)

:: Yes, I'm from down under. "''He was not saying that he believed the bible was inaccurate, just in regards to science.''". That's a contradiction. If he's saying that it's inaccurate "in regards to science", then he's saying that it's ''inaccurate''! Saying that someone believes that the Bible is inaccurate doesn't mean that they think it gets every single thing wrong, or that he doesn't believe ''any'' of it; it just means that they believe it contains inaccuracies, so they don't believe ''those bits''. If he believes that it contains inaccuracies in the area of science, then it is perfectly correct to say that he believes it to be inaccurate. And therefore he ''doesn't'' believe some of what the Bible says. [[User:Philip J. Rayment|Philip J. Rayment]] 19:11, 11 September 2008 (EDT)

:: According to Catholicism, you believe every last word or you are a heretic. If you believe science is not in the bible is not a 'contradiction' on believing in the bible. He is not stating he believes the bible to contain inaccuracies. And therefore he ''does'' believe all of what the Bible says. Maybe I'll write him, then we'll get to the bottom of it.-- [[Image:50 star flag.png|14px]] [[User:Jpatt|jp]] 20:31, 11 September 2008 (EDT)
