I never thought all biblical dogmas should be defended ( some are abusive and degrading to women and/or children .some are superstitious nonsense about natural phenomena . And then there’s the gay bashing which I think is wrong and stupid just on GEneral principles
I’m the wrong one to ask to defend these.
If the Bible condones or approves of toxic behavior it will be dismissed. Slavery , especially in the southern USA, was defended by using the Bible . And you have modern idiots who still bring up these arguments. Misogyny is still defended by using the Bible. I don’t see the point in defending abusive or demeaning behavior and blaming it on God.
It's actually not that minor...Wow... To be honest me too and it hurt me. I can relate I have issues with depression and anxiety and have been accused of the same of not having faith and demonized esp. because I take medication.
Who cares about flat or round earth you know if it is round or flat I'm ok with that. Minor issue you know?
It's actually not that minor...
Just Pharisees being Pharisees. Keep the faith, brother.Truth be told, I've gotten more a lot more grief here from Christians than I ever get from atheists, such as:
1) I have depression is due to the fact that I lack faith.
2) I lack discernment (and do not believe the Bible) because I don't think the world is a flat circle.
3) I am "of the world" (which is Bad) because I don't listen to only Christian(tm) music.
4) I'm probably not a RealTrue Christian because I think owls are neat birds.
5) I have demons in me because I enjoyed Final Fantasy VII.
6) I really have demons in me because I have D&D books in my home.
Etc., etc....

And that's the difference with believers. We try to keep our eye on what's really important, Jesus.

Well, some folks seem to have the idea that if you don't believe in Flat Earth, you are denying the Bible, which means denying Christ, which means you aren't really a Christian in the first place. So while they may say it isn't a salvation issue, in essence they kind of think it is.
