My wife, who went to Catholic school grades 4-College, says there are certainly many well-known contradictions in the Bible. Her paper for her 400-level theology course focused on different places in bible, specifically 2 passages in books, where one instructs women to cover their head and one states that God instructs otherwise. Her library at a Catholic University contained many texts where theologians would argue vehemently over whether these contradictions existed or not.
Only only in the last decade years did the Pope recognize that the world was flat and was not the center of the universe (via official Papal declaration), after hundreds of years of the church's assertions otherwise -- remember Galileo's famous ex-communication?
As well, she remembers there being several contradictions cited between Luke and John gospels.
Sorry we don't have specifics.
