I would suggest that it is very difficult to have a worthwhile discussion with someone who truly believes that these intellectually dishonest maneuverings are valid rebuttals to the obvious mistakes and contradictions in the Bible.

What you call "intellectually dishonest maneuverings" often involve researching the original Hebrew and Greek, comparing what is found with common literary techniques of time period in which the text in question was composed in order to come to the most accurate understanding possible. What is, in fact, intellectually dishonest is to lump everything into one inaccurate representation and present it to the readers of this forum as fact.
