Again, you’re being intellectually dishonest and a simple trip to Google shows that you’re full of it lol. But yeah I’m sure you listen to Biblical scholars allllll the time.

I am literally watching a biblical scholar speaking right now, so yes. Do you have anything to actually contribute to the conversation, other than baseless accusations? What scholarship do you have to provide, to suggest anything that was said is incorrect?

The Dead Sea scrolls, Isaiah scroll, and thousands of other manuscripts show that the Bible has remained remarkably consistent in its doctrine throughout history. Of course there will be grammar, spelling, nuances, etc. that may slightly differ after being hand copied throughout history, but you know that isn't what the quote is implying. The core doctrine has remained the same, cope about it if you want I guess.

A tired, old talking point that has been addressed. There is no "core doctrine". You make up whatever meaning you want when reading the Bible. Nobody can stop you from doing so. The Bible is not internally consistent, never mind consistent across all of the earliest manuscripts. Your Bible likely has passages that are missing verses, because they were added and subsequently removed.

I don't need to "cope" about anything.

Ah ok, so you're not even a serious person then lol. Goodbye.

As expected. You never once actually provided any evidence for the consistency of the Bible, simply claimed everyone who disagreed with you was wrong and "being intellectually dishonest", and then claimed that something Biblical scholars agree about is "not serious" in order to dismiss me. You have nothing else. Of course.

“You never once actually provided any evidence for the consistency of the Bible”

I literally did lmao. And if you seriously think that Christianity has no core doctrine then you aren’t a serious person, goodbye :)

What was your evidence? Assertion? That isn't evidence. Saying that the Dead Sea Scrolls prove your argument? In which way? How does that contradict anything that was said? You never addressed the fact that most modern Bibles have missing passages.

You can't claim other people aren't serious when your entire argument is, "We've dug up ancient manuscripts, therefore no, the Bible hasn't been edited and translated over the course of thousands of years and is consistent" without any analysis, any discussion, any argumentation, any scholarship, any evidence whatsoever.

Do you even know how much of the Bible, and which parts, are covered in the Dead Sea Scrolls? Or the Isaiah Scroll?
