The behemoth could be a dinosaur i suppose, though it is not specific. It could be any large animal. An elephant, or a hippo. I believe it goes on to describe the creatures navel, and dinosaurs, hatching from eggs, do not have navels.
As for giving 'suck to their young ones'. Dinosaurs do not suckle their young, as they are reptiles, as are pleisosaur. It would have to be describing a mammal. Whales and dolphins perhaps.

Excuse me, what do you want us to believe:
The KJV Bible:
Or some stupid evil scientists:
Really, which one is more likely to tell the truth? Please use a bit of logic.

If you look at pictures of Adam, he too has a navel. He was in God’s image, so God has a navel. I think that the navel was placed there before it was needed so that it would be there when it was needed. Who is to say that when God was making the animals he did not have a load of navels left over and just stuck some about the place. These are True Mysteries which lend beauty to Faith.

You have limited yourself and God. Take the Godly Platypus, which lays eggs and yet suckles its young. Were the sea monsters giant Platypuses?

The website writer voted for Obama so obviously he is a Satanist.
Time to reclaim our FREEDOM from the “Mullah in Chief” and his growing activist voter hoards of socialists, communists, anti-Semites, anti-Christians, atheists, radical gays and lesbians, feminists, illegal immigrants, Muslims, anti-Anglo whites and others.

As we are currently discussing Why Atheists are so miserable, I have decided to start this new thread - to continue my '101 Reasons' Series with '101 reasons why Atheists are WRONG'.
Reason No. 1 - The Holy Bible!
Atheists 'claim' that God doesn't exist, yet the Bible proves them WRONG! I can see the Bible, hold it in my hand, and know 1000% that it exists! As God wrote the Bible, this proves that he MUST EXIST too! How dumb these Atheists are!
|
Nope it proves that The Old Testament and New Testament exist. But there is no conclusive proof that "God" wrote it. Doesn't the Old Testament actually state that Jehavah dicatacted The Old Testament to Moses ? So technically it was Moses who wrote it. But did he know it was God ?
Quote:
Reason No. 2 - Evil-ution from Monkeys!
If we really evolved from monkeys, why do monkeys STILL exist? Surely they would've evolved too? And why don't we have tails or swing from trees or speak in monkey-talk? These atheists must be pretty deluded to believe such nonsense!
|
.
If we all evoloved from Adam and Even then does that mean their children commited incest ? Where did all the other children come since they only had Cane and Adel ? Did Cane kill his brother and impregnate his mother ?
Quote:
Reason No. 3 - The 'Big Bang'
Atheists believe there was a 'Big Bang' which created the Earth and the Universe and all things?? Well, what created the 'Big Bang'?? And what was there before it 'banged'??? Ask ANY atheist - they won't be able to answer you! Why? Because God created the 'Big Bang'! And then went on to create the Earth and everything in just 6 days! Praise Jesus!
|
Science is evolving to a point where the "Bing Bang" theory can be proven. There is evidence that God created the universe ?
If God created the Earth then who created God ? Everything has to come from somewhere.
Quote:
Reason No. 4 - Dinosaurs
Most dumb atheists believe that man and dinosaurs didn't inhabit the Earth at the same time. However, we know this to be a LIE! Didn't Noah ride dinosaurs onto the Ark? Aren't Dinosaurs mentioned throughout the Bible?
Checkmate - Atheist!
....MORE TO FOLLOW....
|
Now why is it that Christans here can't discuss topics without derogatory insults towards another group of people with different beliefs ? What happened to "turn the other cheek" and "Love they neighbor" ?
Dinosaurs aren't mentioned anywhere in Genesis and neither were they part of Noahs journey prior to the great flood. Feel free to disprove it(just try to do it with the usual derogatory remarks though).
Ask any religously devout person who created thier Holy Book and the reply is always the same.
"We know God created The Bible because it exists" but it can never been conclusively proven because that is what faith is about isn't it ? They will belive it without question and damn people who choose to ask if it wasn't.
Please remember any picures of Adam "in Gods image" are humans interpreation painted some thousands of years later. Just like Christs, The Apostles and God there is no recorded image of them and all of them could be innacurate.
I am sure the ban stick will come out because its seems your aren't a democratic bunch(strange for Americans don't you think ?) but rather hypocratic in that you don't believe in rational debate.

Adam and Eve had a lot more children than just those two.
Gen 5:3-5 And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth: And the days of Adam after he had begotten Seth were eight hundred years: and he begat sons and daughters: And all the days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years: and he died.
So Adam lived for 930 years, and he and Eve were popping out babies one after the other the whole time, because God told them to "be fruitful, and multiply".

So Adam and Eve had lots of children. Did those children then begat each other to create more children ? There is no mention of any other humans but their own off spring.
God told them to have babies and then they grew up to have babies with each other which is incest.

Brother Percy - "These atheists are so retarded!". So not only do you insult athiest but he also mocks people with mental disabilities. I don't beleive that mental retardation is a matter to be fun off.
Brother Percy - "Most dumb atheists believe that man and dinosaurs didn't inhabit the Earth at the same time." Oops he's at it again. Just because a group of people choose to have differing beliefs they are "dumb". But does he know what the defination of "dumb" actually is ?
So Percy seems to like insults.

A "behemoth" could be anything and completely open to interpretation.
The hebrew meaning is "large animal" or "meaning beast" so they could elephants, rhinos, oxs, giraffes or any other large animal by their standard.
A "leviathan" could be a blue whale, killer whale, squid or any other large sea creature. It does explicitly mention the the creature is a "dinosaur"
The modern hebrew meaning of "leviathan" is whale.

My mistake it should be hypocrite. But if are doctors then I hope you good at it.
You must also remember that The Bible was wrote in Ancient Hebrew, Koin Greek, Aramaic and other languages then it was translated again to English, this is where the King James version of The Bible comes from.
Due its age and condition there is some 1000's of pages missing and complete translations are still debated today.
It was only the First Council of Nicaea in AD 355 that The Bible was we know it began to be formed.
The council was headed by Emperor Constantine and it is where the earlist version of the "Lord's Prayer" was also formed.
I fully appreciate that everyone has different views and I also value those points. That is what diversity is all about. Sometimes you will listen and think "Hmm maybe that's right".
Science is not the enemy of human kind and neither was Charles Darwin. It's is obvious through scientific study that evolution happened on Earth and that humans were part of the chain events.
Without science we would not the ability to save lives, spread the message of peace and help one another.
It is my belief that we cannot save this planet until we all work together.

Reason 12:
Atheists support gay marriages yet also believe in evolution (and have the nerve to call it natural selection!) They are too stupid to see the paradox.
Reason 13:
Atheists think is makes sense to give wheelchair retards the best parking spaces even though the lazy cripples don't even have to walk.
Proverbs 27:15 A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.

1. You are judging an entire community on the actions of one person.
2. There's a difference between insulting and putting the truth bluntly. Was Jesus insulting people when he said, " Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?"

It could also be a dinosaur, but you seem to want to dismiss that possibility out of hand.
It could not have been an ox, because the Bible says, "Behold now behemoth, which I made with thee; he eateth grass as an ox." That wouldn't make any sense if the behemoth and the ox were the same animal.

Of course it doesn't. Why would you expect a book translated in 1611 to use a word that wasn't coined until 1841?
I noticed you didn't have any handy atheist apologetics for the mention of dragons in the Bible. The original Hebrew word tanniyn refers to any marine or land monster, so that one can clearly refer to dinosaurs.

Not at all, friend. There's a difference between judging someone and warning them about God's impending wrath. The Bible tells us that non believers are going to Hell, so how am I judging them by warning them of that fact?

Actually, they don't. Natural selection is a mechanism of the process of evolution. Another mechanism is sexual selection. In any case, I don't really see how that's a paradox. Please elaborate.

- Why humans aren't perfect
- Why we are willing to do abortions.

1. For starters, do you think God would consider these people "stupid and ugly"? The reasons could be many. They could survive because there are no predators around to kill them. They could survive because some people may like stupid and ugly and thus would procreate with them. They could survive because maybe they don't see each other as ugly. Etc.
2. Why should we be? Who says natural selection or other mechanisms of evolution are perfect? Maybe we eventually will be? Etc.
3. The survival of the mother, selfishness, stupidity, perhaps to kill off offspring of people who shouldn't be mating, and so on.

Matthew 16: 17And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
18And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.
Considering how you lot wholly reject Catholicism, I'd say you are all practically atheists yourselves.

But the Pope is nothing like Peter. For starters, why isn't your dress-wearing sodomite false idol allowed to marry, when Peter was?
Matthew 8:14 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.
Why would you think of the Pope as a Master and a Father, when God specifically tells you not to do this?
Matthew 23:8 But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.
9 And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.
God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.
