Re: If we came from monkeys, why don't we have tails?

I know you are trying to trick me with you silly atheist science.

First you ask me where did the apple tree come from.
If I say the apple seed. Then you ask where did the apple seed come from.
If say the apple tree, then you ask where did the apple tree come from.

Your silly atheist science only puts you in knowledge loops you cannot answer.

I'm sensing that you don't want to answer my question.
Hasn't the bible given you an answer yet?

Actually...If you mean (as I hope you do) that where did the apple tree ultimately come from, then the answer is simply "something genetically very similar to an apple tree". If you ask where that came from, then something similar to that again. If you follow that back far enough, you eventually get flowering plants, then non-flowering plants (ie ferns), then blue-green algae, then photosynthesising algae, then chemosynthesising algae, then simple amino acids, then, ultimately, you get the primordial essence of life, which is Ammonia, Water, Oxygen, oxides of Sulphur and Carbon Dioxide.
Most of all life is made of only 5 elements anyway, Carbon, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Hydrogen and Sulphur, with traces of metals.

Here's the answer you seek.

John 1 1In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2The same was in the beginning with God.
3All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
4In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
5And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

Of course it has, you nitwit! By very cleverly avoiding pesky questions pertaining to origins of GOD, we can reasonably infer that He has always existed.

The Bible couldn't be any clearer. What MORE do you want?!

How is it clever to ignore a question? That argument is no different to saying "If we ignore gravity, we can reasonably infer that we can fly"

You have ignored my post at #316. Stop with the silly knowledge loop.

They aren't ignoring it. Your question is meaningless in a True Christian™ worldview. The answer you want isn't in the Bible. Why not? Short version: You don't need to know that in order to go to Heaven.

You may find Gnosticism and their concept of a demiurge interesting reading. They were one of the first groups the Catholics went, "Kill it with FIRE!!!", on.

Re: If we came from monkeys, why don't we have tails?

Who created god and why aren't we worshiping him?

As Mrs. Rogers pointed out to you, God© has always existed. And until he decided to create our world 6000 years ago there was ONLY God©.

In your silly theory you state that the entire universe was created in a big bang. What was before that? Surely a giant explosion containing enough matter to create the universe had to be initiated by something? But you claim that before the big bang there was nothing?

So the whole universe is created from a "fluctuation"?

Please

Re: If we came from monkeys, why don't we have tails?

But the bible must say how god came into existence somewhere,
there's no way that the bible would have such a big plot hole right?

You atheist scum are so contradicting. You have no problem believing that the universe is infinite, but when it comes to Gods existens nothing is good enough for you, huh?

God has always existed, it says so right here:

Psalms 41:13 Blessed be the LORD God of Israel from everlasting, and to everlasting. Amen, and Amen.

and here:

Psalms 93:2 Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.

Gnostism is a VERY interesting, and frankly infinitely more believable, world view.

And why aren't you off pestering some gnostic forum instead of ours?

Oh, and beyond the intellectual elegance of it on what is the bases? At lest the Pastarafurians have their absurd magic book. If you can make anything you want up then why not beer crazed pirate gods?

No, a TRUE Christians(tm) needs facts, not conjecture. We don't want the gassy extrusion of unwashed men living in the back country, we TRUE Christians something we can grab with booth hands. That is why we have The Bible.

By facts I must assume the facts that you're willing to accept no matter how much sense they make.

The facts are what they are, I have read the bible some 1500 times and nowhere do I find any mention that man is related to monkeys.
