So you’re cherry picking your side arguments? I guess we are done here. I’m not defending nazis you asshole. I’m saying both sides are suck. Both sides are in the wrong. Both sides don’t have people’s best interest at heart and just use Congress to get rich.
Oh really so I provided facts and you just reverted to name calling. Cool.
Did I say I was an all knowing authority on the Bible? No I’m bringing up counterpoints. That’s how discussions work
Here are some real sources.
L.D. Reynolds & N.G. Wilson, Scribes and Scholars: A Guide to the Transmission of Greek and Latin Literature (Oxford University Press)
Paul Maas, Textkritik — the foundational 20th-century work laying out the method (stemmatics/cladistic analysis of manuscript families) that’s
Martin West, Textual Criticism and Editorial Technique (Teubner)
These compare the methods used on classic literature that society deems as some of the most accurate books and preservation in history. Using those same standards, the Bible becomes an outlier for accuracy.

The amount of biblical reproductions and verifiable copies are factors higher than homers illiad. That’s a fact.
I do read it in the ancient Hebrew sometimes and the Bible is one of the most accurate references of history known to mankind. That is a fact. All other books have a fraction of the same accuracy.
Here is some information for you.
The Bible has far more early manuscript copies and a higher percentage of textual agreement between those copies than any other ancient book from the classical world . [1, 2, 3]
Manuscript Count and Comparison
The New Testament: Scholars have found over 5,800 early Greek manuscripts of the New Testament. When including ancient translations in other languages, the total number of early copies exceeds 24,000.
Other Ancient Books: Standard historical works, such as the writings of Plato or Tacitus, survive in only a small handful to a few dozen handwritten copies. Even Homer’s Iliad, which has the next-highest count for an ancient work, has around 1,900 surviving manuscripts.
Details on this manuscript evidence are outlined by the C.S. Lewis Institute.
Textual Accuracy and Preservation
Copy Consistency: When scholars compare thousands of older biblical copies, they find a 95% to 99.5% rate of agreement.
Types of Errors: Most differences between copies are minor spelling mistakes, flipped word orders, or missing single letters made by tired scribes. Very few differences change the meaning of a passage, and none change core doctrines. [4, 5, 6]
Historical and Archaeological Views
Support for Specific Details: Traditional researchers and groups like GotQuestions.org note that archaeology has confirmed many named kings, cities, and events in both the Old and New Testaments.
Broader Debate: Professional historians hold a range of views. While some portions of the text align closely with external historical records, other parts are viewed as theological or legendary narratives rather than strict, literal history. [10, 11, 12]

Ah so I provided sources and you decided to still be biased. Good job.
I’m confused I provided sources? That’s what you wanted?
I’ll have to push back there and maybe you have an argument if this was the only time it was talked about in scripture but it is not and it matches the threads of other biblical narratives.
A common thread through the Bible is that families are God’s plan for humans on this side of death. They are good to His kingdom and to promote the values of His love. Now homosexuality would directly go against that narrative so I don’t think the “man to a woman role” is a valid argument anymore. Romans 1 goes through the “homosexuality is bad” too.
Someone else said we are to say the writers of the Bible are wrong and that is a fundamental difference in ideals that we cannot overcome. I believe the Bible is the word of God and it is complete, authoritative and not up for change based on societal influences where that may not be the case for others so we would be arguing from literal difference in fundamental values. And that’s ok to do but no resolution could possibly come out of that.
Favorite take so far. Lol

That last one is my favorite it talks about dog whistles on the democratic side.
My point has been consistent. Both sides suck both parties suck
Clip in context?
Nice! I shall see for myself
Is there a place I can get the raw data? That’s what I want raw data
It’s democratic paranoia.
You should look into what’s happening in France.
I’m not sure if fox is to blame here. I think a lot of it is citizens continually seeing corruption in the government. Politicians can do whatever they want and get away with it. Insider trading, tax fund laundering, everything. And people see their money get taken from them and go to absolutely nothing. NOTHING.
No the FBI changed the definition of violent crime under Biden administration and have specifically ignored certain areas to bias the numbers.
Dude no way thanks for the compliment these were my comments. Lemme go apply for the AI position
