Many atheists and agnostics say that the best argument against the Bible is the Bible. We’re not afraid of it. Rather we quote it. Quoting it shows that it is not only highly contradictory, it’s scientifically looney tunes, and just plain evil and immoral. Not to mention has content that, in any other context, would get it banned from alot of libraries.
They don’t affect them because they dance around them, either offering creative interpretations (aka apologetics) or they just ignore them. But contradictions are really important because demonstrating that they do indeed exist shatters a key piece of evangelical theology: Biblical inerrancy.

i mean contradictions dont really seem to affect religious people, so im still reluctant to add more bibles to a religion problem
