Re: Another nail in the Darwinist coffin

So you are saying Alexander the Great's visit to the Oracle of Siwa is a myth? That the miraculous rain storm in the desert and flight of birds that led him to the Oracle are all made up? I am just curious why everything your pagan gods do is historically accurate while everything Jesus does is inherently suspect in your mind.

He may well have visited the Oracle - lots of foks visited oracles back them.
As for the rain storem, hwo knows? It does occasionally rain in the desert. I don't for a moment believe that it was a miracle, however - just nature following its course.
The only thing I find about birds is that he used barley to sketch out a map on the ground, which the birds ate. Birds eat grain. No miracle there.

BTW I can see you are a big fan of Olympias with all the ball busting and snake "worshiping" she did.

Not particularly. You seem to have the erroneous idea that I dislike men. Not true - I get along just fine with most men.

Re: Another nail in the Darwinist coffin

I didn't say that Jesus was made up, I said that I believed some of the stories about him were.
Alexander the Great, while a real person, also had stories made up about him, including, interestingly enough, that he was the son of God.

Four books Dances with Jizz. The Synoptic gospels are four different books collected together. That puts two books up on Alexander the Great, another historical figure consider by groups of people as a god. Does this mean Alexander the Great is also made up?

Re: Another nail in the Darwinist coffin

So you're taking credit for Vonnegut's death? You must have an ego to rival Pat Robertson's.
And there is no proof that your Jesus rose after three days - only a story in a book.

Did Kurt Vonnegut rise from the dead three days after I successfully persuaded GOD to kill him? No? Then there you go.

Yes, but then every Tom, Dick and Dances with Heresy would believe in Him, and He'd have to let the whole lot of you into Heaven. Deliberately making it difficult to believe in Him is His way of keeping the riff-raff out.

So your God is irrational, and yet I'm expected to put him in charge of my life? Not gonna happen.

Re: Another nail in the Darwinist coffin

And I sit here with a copy of Cat's Cradle on my lap. It says "no damn cat, no damn cradle." What makes your storybook more true than mine?

Did Kurt Vonnegut rise from the dead three days after I successfully persuaded GOD to kill him? No? Then there you go.

If he's omnipotent, then why did he need to bother with having mere mortals write it all down? Why not just make it magically appear the way he supposedly made the earth magically appear? Surely if he could make a whole planet poof into existence just by saying so, then making a book should be a piece of cake.

That's true enough. I planted tomatoes, and I'm harvesting tomatoes. I planted melons, and I'm harvesting melons. I planted squash, and I'm harvesting squash. I planted beans, and I'm harvesting beans. I could go on, but I think you get the picture.

Re: Another nail in the Darwinist coffin

DNA is stored in those fossils. So what you are saying here is that god also faked DNA. I thought you didn't believe in DNA.

CODE RED!! CONTRADICTION!! CODE RED!!

Even your so-called "scientists" disagree with you. Do you ever bother to even read the research, or do you ignore it just like you do the Bible (KJV1611)?

"MISBEHAVING FOSSILS" (George and Roberta Poinar. 1994.): http://www.grisda.org/origins/22081.htm

But, age estimates in the 17-225 million year range (see p 181 for 225 My) are theoretical. Whether correct or incorrect, they are based on presumptions which are beyond direct experimental validation. The detection of DNA in fossils with such age assignments can call the age assignments into question. They can also be interpreted as "proof" for DNA survival 10,000 times longer than can be expected on the basis of observations of DNA degradation over the historical time range. The scientific community is so adamantly committed to a uniform process development of the Phanerozoic portion of the geologic column over ~600 million years, that it is blind to the implication of residual amino acids and DNA. This evidence suggests the existence of life on planet Earth for only a relatively short span of time more closely in agreement with the chronological specifications in the Bible.

No, there is no contradiction here friend. God is more than capable of faking something that doesn't exist.

It's not that we believe it doesn't exist, merely we don't agree with what the Scientists "Theorise" about it.

I've answered this before; for the same reason He faked the fossils, to fool God hating secularist like you into damning yourself because you evilly place evidence before faith.

Re: Another nail in the Darwinist coffin

If the Bible were fiction, then how do you explain your presence? Where does everything around you come from? How can you say things so patently absurd? Without God, there is nothing.
