: "The flaws or contradictions or however a person may look at are there in the bible to allow just that."
: I have not found flaws. Although admittedly, I do not remember every verse of the Bible. :)
: One example of a "supposed flaw" or differing view or however it might be interpreted example in scripture is in the very acount in the gospels of when Jesus went before pilate. All of the gospels except for Mark ( I believe its mark!), say that when Jesus was asked if he was the Messiah he kept quiet and did not answer. Mark ( I believe ) gives the account that Jesus said it is as you say or ask, something along those lines. You will have to forgive me for my uncertainty as to I am very tired. I have been up for about 24 hours and my concentration and memory are not in full form! ( disclaimer!) As I was saying - this could be seen as a flaw or contradiction in that a major thing such as an account of the trial of Jesus has a recorded differing account from the other gospels. Then again I am flawed and can find flaws in this logic. However it does have strong argument. I have heard and read theologans argue various angles and view points of this before. I may just be using the wrong semantics in that 1 differing account out of the 4 gospels may not be a flaw or contradiction, however looked at it though -it is a variance or differing account. Once again I am just a finite being trying comprehend the Infinite!
