135. Weaponized Cherry-Picking

from Ravel · host Ravel LLC

Why is it so easy to cherry-pick the verses we want out of the Bible to support our positions? Is it ignorance, malevolence, or some secret third thing? Josh thinks it may be due to a bias of the written word. Emily tries to explain the Bible like we're 5 years old. And Stephen goes on a rant only to end up saying cherry-picking is okay and in fact he does it all the time.Mentioned in the episode:Dan McClellan - Why God Is Like a Hotdog on The Bible For Normal PeopleData Over Dogma Podcast127.
