Scripture or it never happened.

Re: Gravity

I do not know why you must insist people hate God in order to avoid answering their questions. I do not hate God. I just believe gravity exists. All I want to know is how 'A. Follower' conveniently had spare tanks of Helium gas with him in order to prove wrong a half-assed theory he read on this website. That sounds suspicious.

You do realize you can buy/rent tanks of helium from party supply stores, right? I have bottles of nitrous oxide around the house*, I suppose you're going to come up with some evil reason for that as well?

*Why is none of your business.

Oh, and I was smart enough to tie the balloon, really, I know enough that if I didn't tie the balloon the air would escape causing it to fly all over the place.

Re: Gravity

Luke 2:1-14
In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) And everyone went to his own town to register.
So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.
And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger."
Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."

Re: Gravity

No there is no gravity. The falling is either done by your guardian angels or the invisible hand of God.

One time I was jumping on my friend's trampoline. This was one of the quality old ones that was made of pure steel. Of course we had no padding on it. We were jumping on there one day and I somehow ended upside down going headfirst into the corner of this monstrosity. At the last second, my body was moved and I landed safely on the surface.

The theory of gravity says I should have fallen straight down, yet I didn't.

No sir, it's not gravity that grabs you. It's the hand of God.

I used to have a trampoline. I jumped, did a backflip, and landed straight on my neck. I had to be put in the hospital, but I lived. I now have to ride around in one of those wheelchairs designed for old people (and Steven Hawking).

God must have a lot of hands. I once had a friend that had 11 fingers. He worked at the circus, with elephants. I always loved elephants. Did you see the movie Ice Age, with Ray Ramano? He wasn't an elephant, but a mammoth. They don't live anymore, I dunno why. Maybe the elephants ate them. I liked him better in Ice Age than in his show, Everybody loves Ray. I didn't like Ray. I dont think his wife did either, I always thought she was gonna cheat on him with his brother Robert. But that's just me.

My parents sold the trampoline at a yard sale the next year.

But so how do you say Jesus was not a Jew then?

Perhaps if you had more faith, God would have Intelligently Pulled you upwards before you landed, as He did with Pastor Levi.

Matthew 17:20
And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

Re: Gravity

Sorry to join this thread, but I feel like the TS here is outnumbered, so I will.

Uranium is also a gift from God. This dosn't mean that everyone should have some convieniently stored in their kitchen . I think that is the point being made by Life99. How can you follow the Bible TO THE LETTER when it was written in a completely different language (Hebrew, Aramaic) than you're reading it in? I'm just thinking, in some cases, following the Bible that was translated to English by man too closely may result in some unforeseen errors. English was definitely not around when the Bible was being written.

And Jesus was not Caucasian, as he was not born in "Europe, North Africa, the Horn of Africa, West Asia, Central Asia, or South Asia." He was close (as he spent much of his childhood in Egypt), but not quite. He was born in Israel. Religously, he was raised under Judaism. That makes him a Judaian, not a Jew. But he was born in Israel, so he was a Jew in the ethnic sense.

Gravity is a thing that really confuses a lot of people. But TS is right here. Without air resistance, things drop at the same speed regardless of their mass. Crumple up a piece of paper real tight, drop a pen/pencil, a coin, a sock, keys (I just did it with keys and a sock), and they should all hit the ground at the same time. Balloons filled with helium don't work because the air in the balloon becomes lighter (less mass) than outside the balloon. Gasses aren't solid therefore will not fall due to gravity at all.

Erm, in my Theology College, I had to learn Ancient Hebrew, Aramaic and also Koine Greek. Also, Israel as a country did not exist when Jesus lived. Israel as referred to in the OT was a person/tribe/clan. He was a descendant of David - King of Judah, hence NOT making Jesus a joo at all.

Perhaps you should not rely on wickedpedia as your source of "knowledge" as it is obviously wrong.

As to your science drivel.... You secular types are so funny truing soooo hard to prove a non existent point.

Re: Gravity

He is still not Caucasian

Jesus was an American Caucasian. The Bible is crystal clear on that: Revelation 1:14 "His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow; and his eyes were as a flame of fire"

Re: Gravity

Thanks guys, I really appreciate you having this lovely debate on Jesus with me. You have really got it into my head that Jesus was an American, and he voted for President Bush right? Or did he vote for Obama? Was he the one who shot Kennedy? I can't remember. Or wait, that was Saddam Hussein. That's why they crucified him, or maybe it was because he was a Muslim. That's why he did it too, wasn't it? Saddam Hussein killed Jesus because he was Muslim! Then he burned down the WTC afterwards. Oh wait, that was the Jews. Was Jesus involved? Because I think that Jesus, after hanging out in the tomb for a while, would have gotten bored and decided to go blow some stuff up. So that's probably why WWII started.

Yet another atheist that proves my theory that they're only atheists because they are too dumb to be able to wrap their minds around a Bible.
