You'd think the Bible and Christianity would get at least ONE thing right, just by the law of averages!
Wew, so this is the power of the "Higher Criticism"!
Is the Bible real?

Theres your problem. Wikipedia is abhorrently dishonest when it comes to Christianity. They like to quote scholars with an obvious agenda or who hold a minority view or who are not actually legitimate scholars.

I made the point in the QTDDTOTT that since there are disagreements in the gospels about the exact circumstances of events in Jesus' life, the Bible must be flawed. It cannot be held as perfect, infallible scripture.
Christopher Baker
I thought the OT was considered noncanon anyway
Parker Brown
NT is placed above OT but OT is in no way non-canon.
Andrew Ortiz
Than why are things like Leviticus retconned as far as rules for us to live?
Just because they were meant for the Jews?
James Edwards
Correct. The ritual mandates of the old testament were just to distinguish the Hebrews from their godless neighbors, only the moral statements apply to Christians.
Jonathan Brown
BEGONE HERETIC
Any Christian who says that couldn't be more wrong in that assertion. In order to understand God, His will, His prophesies and His character you ought to read the Old Testament, and I mean the whole Old Testament, so preferably the Apocrypha or a Catholic/Orthodox Bible based on the Latin Vulgate or Textus Receptus and Septuagint. The New Testament is based on the law, teachings and prophesies of the Old Testament, to never read it but only the New Testament is utterly foolish. For some people the New Testament is enough to accept Jesus Christ and ultimately God and live by His word, but anyone who genuinely wants to understand Christianity and our one true God then it is one's utmost imperative to read the whole Bible accordingly.

I think he meant the law of the NT supersedes the law in the OT.
