it’s not really great on desktop either, but it still has a 2013 copyright, so i assume that’s what they decided the world is stuck with.
the tl;dr is basically every claim in the bible is contradicted by another claim (or claims) in the bible
edit: if you’re interested in this sort of thing, i highly recommend bart ehrman’s presentation on another major problem with the bible: translation(s) https://youtu.be/pfheSAcCsrE he’s a biblical scholar who grew up staunchly devout, but became agnostic after becoming a prominent authority on the topic of the bible. GEE how did that happen…
There was an earlier Simpsons episode with that exact concept. Basically Flanders needs to make some big decision to be naughty and takes Bible clippings for and against and they are nearly evenly weighted if I remember the episode right.
If the scholarly aspect is of any interest to anybody, i can recommend this playlist by center place. The lectures are an excellent deep dive into christian history and concepts. I am no christian, but have spend hours listening to this gay mormon preacher teach about things like how the christian god was created from a mixture of different polytheist gods, who Baal was, or why Christians are obsessed with sex.
The style is more like a university lecture than a fast paced yt video, but i really learned a lot from it.
