What a normal person (aka atheist) wrote for a bible-thumping moron. Internet name: havfanridindis

How does flogging and capital punishment relate to Exodus 21:21? It clearly says the word "slaves". It's about slaves, who people could buy at the time. Not about punishments for outlaws and the ethical dilemmas derived from it. Selling and owing people as property shouldn't have existed in the first place under any circumstances and in any context, let alone having rules on how to enforce it properly. You've gone from interpreting things slightly differently to suit you, to completely changing the meaning of the words in passages.

Also, I expected that if you actually answered, you would deny that there are mistakes in it. Your brain isn't in a position to be able to do otherwise, unfortunately. Any person who can read facts in the Bible like:

"GE 1:14 God created lights in the firmament of heaven to divide the day from the night

GE 1:4 God had already made this division earlier

GE 1:11-12, 26-27 Trees were created before man was created.

GE 2:4-9 Man was created before trees were created.

GE 1:20-21, 26-27 Birds were created before man was created.

GE 2:7, 19 Man was created before birds were created.

GE 1:24-27 Animals were created before man was created.

GE 2:7, 19 Man was created before animals were created.

GE 1:26-27 Man and woman were created at the same time.

GE 2:7, 21-22 Man was created first, woman sometime later."

and say that there are no contradictions or things like:

"Earth does not move (Ps 93:1, 96:10, 104:5, 1 Chr 16:30).

Thunder is God's voice (Ps 77:18).

Earthquakes are caused by God's anger (Job 9:5, Ps 18:7, 77:18, 97:4, Isa 2:19, 24:20, 29:6, Jer 10:10, Ezek 38:20, Nah 1:5). Or by his voice (Heb 12:26). Or by Lucifer (Isa 14:16)."

and go on to claim there is nothing factually incorrect, then that person is beyond help. You're just being dishonest with yourself at this point, and you'll pretty much say anything to defend that demonstrably wrong position that the Bible is without error. At least some Christians have the decency to admit that it's not perfect and not nearly as clear as they'd like it to be and they go on believing in something. And then there are the plain dishonest people like you who deny everything.

And yes I know I'm copy/pasting but that only causes you're failing to address these things. But maybe I just helped you avoid it more easily by sending too much for you to analyze. So just pick a few of the 8 things I mentioned above or the rest in the previous posts which are demonstrably false (like the cause of thunder) and try to explain how they're not wrong.

And if you want a purely scientific one, here's one too:

1 Kings 7:23-26

"And he made a molten sea [cauldron], ten cubits from the one brim to the other: it was round all about, and his height was five cubits: and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about. And under the brim of it round about there were knops compassing it, ten in a cubit, compassing the sea round about: the knops were cast in two rows, when it was cast. It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east: and the sea was set above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward. And it was a handbreadth thick, and the brim thereof was wrought like the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies: it contained two thousand baths."

Circumference (C) = 30 cubits ("a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about")

Diameter (d) = 10 cubits ("ten cubits from the one brim to the other")

Thus:

Biblical Pi (π) = (C/d) = (30 cubits/10 cubits) = 3.0

That is an impossible value for a circle as we know Pi is 3,14......

Please, justify your claim that the Bible is without error when you're being presented with a mathematical error, as clear as it can get.
