I appreciate your skepticism, and I share it, which is the main reason I set those limitations to begin with. I.E. -Supposing there is a God, and this were his book, and he created the laws of nature, then there should be no conflict between his book and the natural order of the universe. -Again, supposing that this is his book, there can not be a conflict between the various chapters of it. -These actually set a very high standard and make it easier to *disprove* the bible, as violations of these rules would in fact make the whole castle crumble. That is why I inspect and cross-reference science and nature and anything else I can find while working my way through it. As I said in another thread, I am skeptical, so I am trying to approach it in a falsifiable way.
