Contradictions in the Bible poster (detail 2)
By . 2009. Photos.
Visualization of the contradictions in the Bible taken from The Scripture Project by Steve Wells (see the Projects section of http://www.reasonproject.org).
The bars that run along the bottom of the visualization represent the 1189 chapters in The Bible, with the length of each bar corresponding to the number of verses in each chapter. White bars represent the Old Testament and grey bars represent The New Testament. Each arc indicates a contradiction.

What a brilliant way to illustrate the inconsistency.
posted on October 8, 2009I LOVE this poster! I want to hang it in every room in my home but I’ve downloaded both sizes and cannot read any of the text as it is in a low resolution. Is there any way to download a copy with readable text?
posted on February 5, 2010The poster is very creative and has a nice artistic quality to it. I’m also intrigued by The Reason Project’s goals. Given the attention to detail and intellectual rigor used on this site, I’m wondering why the original biblical languages (Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic) were not used as the basis for the contradictions study? Claims as significant as the ones made on this poster should be developed and tested using the most accurate information possible. Nevertheless, it’s a well executed graphic!

posted on April 26, 2010How about making is an interactive web page where if you hover over the arch the summarized contradiction appears and if you click the corresponding biblical text is brought up? Similarly when hovering over the text at the botom the arc is hi-lighted? and again clicking on the ‘contradiction description’ brings up the source texts for comparison.
Just a thought.
