		<description><![CDATA[Virtually all Christian denominations agree that Jesus was conceived by a supernatural act of the Holy Spirit and that Mary remained a virgin during her pregnancy. Some churches go one step further, though, and maintain that Mary remained a virgin all her life. This seems to be at odds, however, with scripture that mentions several times [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=oneshepherd.wordpress.com&amp;blog=4494572&amp;post=160&amp;subd=oneshepherd&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Priests and nuns are routinely criticized for their choice of a celibate lifestyle &#8211; and not just by secular society. Many churches teach their members that a man or woman who gives up sex for life is somehow abnormal, deficient, or worse, brainwashed. But when did celibacy get such a bad reputation? Firstly, celibacy today is not the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=oneshepherd.wordpress.com&amp;blog=4494572&amp;post=106&amp;subd=oneshepherd&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

If scripture cannot agree with itself then it stands to reason that the bible cannot be considered divinely inspired nor authorative. Are they right?
