Re: How can we see stars if they are "millions of light years" away?

Wow thank you Mary for assuming my agenda! For your information I despise abortion, think there are only male and females and dont think that there should be anything to do with sexuality in our schools. But by all means please spread the love of Christ to everyone with your kind words.

Re: How can we see stars if they are "millions of light years" away?

No Mary I dont expect him to lay everything out for me. But that's part of your argument is that it is all laid out and there can be no deviation from it at all yet now you are saying we have to think for ourselves. Why did he give an exact description of the Ark but not the distance of the stars?

If and when the LORD commands me to do something with the stars, I have full faith that He will tell me all the information I need to complete the task. I have no doubt that if the LORD commanded you to do something and gave you the necessary information to complete the task, you would take that information and use it to abort babies, support Kamala Harris, and help the Homers shove their Gay Agenda down the throats of our kindergarteners.

Ok then why didnt God say I have hung the stars 100,000 miles?

Don't be silly! He also didn't say, "When you sneeze, be a dear and cover your mouth so you don't spew your disgusting mucoidal droplets all over your friend over a cup of coffee." Or do you think the LORD has to do all the thinking for you, too?

He isnt the one I was talking about that referenced it but he is the one that wrote it. What is your theory anyways?

Friend, that is the problem right there. "Theories".


I could make up wild tales until the cows come home and demand you believe them. That does not make them true. On the other hand, if I get a terrific soup I'll ask the recipe be written down so a female at my home can duplicate it. The recipe is facts. How it is made. Not a guess or a 'this is my opinion'. The Bible on the other hand, was written by Gods Divine Guidance. God made everything and therefore knows EXACTLY what everything is and how it was done. Fact, not fictional "theory".

Hey Mitza,

When God said His word was the light it was a metaphor for Him and His Word being a beacon for all of man kind. And as far as introducing my walk to this forum, why do they categorize me as unsaved trash? Or anyone for that matter?

Re: How can we see stars if they are "millions of light years" away?

Ah but you are working on theories. Where in the Bible does God tell us the exact distance of the stars? Or that the firmament is 50 miles above us? He was so careful in stating the exact size of Noah's Ark.

[FatZ2018]

Re: How can we see stars if they are "millions of light years" away?

Ah you dont need theories. So then tell me where in the Bible does it say the exact distance of the stars? Where does it say that the firmament is 50 miles above us?

I don't have "theories" I have the Word of God. He actually made the stars and the whole universe. Lycia did refer to the Reverend's post but had clearly read it:

Ezekiel Bathfire provided some scientific "research" about diamonds which obviously applies an ill-informed interpretation to the data, remember even "scientists" themselves acknowledge their failure to visit wherever it is they're speculating about but the principle is there I suppose.

Then there was this piece of idiocy:

Same with stars only their light is stronger therefore visible from farther away from a flashlight.

Now I don't care if you call it light or φως or mwanga or electro-magnetic-radiation which are essentially just synonyms for the same thing although the first two are more economical with syllables, the highlighted statement remains at variance with the claims of science (the light we do see is what fails to go on forever due to its hitting the retina) and with what God explains about light.

John 1:1,4 In the beginning was the Word
the Word was with God
the Word was God.
In him was life
the life was the light of men.

What humans (scientists are the ones defining stuff here) call light or φως or mwanga or electromagnetism is what God refers to as His Word. Some people refer to Divine emanations. Whatever. There is one particular characteristic described, however:

I Peter 1:24b-25a The grass withereth, and the flower thereof falleth away: But the word of the Lord endureth for ever.

You seem very concerned that people should read things. Have you managed to read the really quite simple requirement for an introduction when signing up? We would appreciating knowing a little more about your walk with Christ.

We don't need "a theory." Having "a theory" implies paying attention to empirical evidence, hypothesis testing, and somilar scientific hocus-pocus. We have no need for any of that as we are following what the Bible says. The Bible already contains 100% of the knowledge that humans need. Hence, we have no need to formulate hypotheses, test them until they form theories, nor develop laws.

Re: How can we see stars if they are "millions of light years" away?

Ok some one in an earlier post put a link to a pastor's thread about how the stars are diamonds and that he can prove it mathematically. Yet they must have not read it cause he himself uses the light year speed to calculate it and references back to it several times.

"Light year" is not a speed.

Perhaps it's worth mentioning that although concepts such as light year and millions of years exist and although these may be used to critique the theories in which they appear, referring to any aspect of any hypothesis when discussing it does not imply acceptance of either the hypothesis, the concepts or the theory.

You are referring to post #17 where the Pastor who made the post was quoting himself from a different thread so, yes the someone who linked to that post had not only read it but written it.
