Contradiction with Genesis 1:27

Contradiction with Deuteronomy 4:15-16

This verse warns against idolatry by depicting God in any form, conflicting with the descriptive vision in Ezekiel 1:8.

Contradiction with John 4:24

Paradox #1

Ezekiel 1:8 describes a vision involving creatures with multiple wings and faces. The contradiction here lies in the depiction of creatures with human-like features possessing unnatural traits, such as extra limbs or multiple faces, which do not align with biological principles or known living organisms. Such beings defy the understanding of human anatomy and evolutionary biology.
