The bible (so called word of god) is full of mistakes scientifically,mathemateially etc.

JER 13:14 And I will dash them one against another, even the fathers and the sons together, saith the LORD: I will not pity, nor spare, nor have mercy, but destroy them.

EXO 15:3 The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name.

 

ROM 15:33 Now the God of peace be with you all. Amen.

MAT 1:16 And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

 

LUK 3:23 And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli.

 

MAT 28:1 In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

Of course it is.

It has been written by human animals who are prone to making mistakes. The bible is a book, its an excellent work of historical fiction, and there are purported to be 50 versions in the English language alone so I doubt that any logical thinking person can believe there will not be any mistakes. It is humanly impossible given our track record.

No the Bible isn't full of mistakes. A lot of people pick and choose out of the Bible and they read it out of context a lot of the time. Most of the "supposed" contradictions that people quote are really "complementary" meaning they add on to what the person is saying making it not a contradiction.

For instance, take for example in

Matt. 27:28, "They stripped Him and put a scarlet robe on Him."

Mark 15:17, "They dressed Him up in purple, and after twisting a crown of thorns, they put it on Him."

Matthew says the robe is scarlet, and Mark says the robe is purple. By all means that's not contradictory because there is a color called Darker Scarlet that is a shade of purple. So Matthew and Mark are both correct.

You picked a very, very small contradiction in order to avoid the larger ones, so could you address some of the greater ones (a few of which were mentioned in the prompt)? One's such as the claims of mercy from the New Testament, vs the wrath and blood lust of the Old Testament?

the thing is your debunking requires assumptions to be correct such as the tone being dark scarlet and the lighting to be poor. When it is just as likely to be light scarlet or scarlet and good lighting.
