You are my freaking hero. You're a well thought, critically thinking and logically reasoning atheist who knows just what to say and to who in what context. Just know that I luv you bb, no matter what happens.

Careful, son. This man is a confirmed arrogant, atheist dick. He mocks the Sweet Lord Jesus with every movement he makes, every thought he thinks goes against the Will of God. He has no problem openly ridiculing what the LORD command of us, and insolently demands to apply reason and logic against the Truth(c). You would do well to steer clear of him and not read any of his posts. While they may appeal to your flesh, they will only serve to retard your spiritual growth.

Re: Does the Sun Even Emit Light?

I'm going to blow your mind.

Are you ready?

Something can be ROUND and FLAT at THE SAME TIME!!!

Now, think: what shape is a coin?

BOOOM!

Btw, the earth is an oblate spheroid, i.e. almost spherical but thicker in the middle.



Therefore not pitch black, maybe kinda dark.

As for your wilful ignorance misreading the Bible, if you know everything about everything, why are you here?

Radius of the earth? That would imply the earth is round. Sir, the earth is flat...

...Stand in a room that you "think" is pitch black and wave your hand about 1" in front of your face. You can still see it right?...

Re: Does the Sun Even Emit Light?

It's impossible to measure the supposed speed of light. Scientists arrived at the figure of 186,000 miles per second (or 300,000 km/sec), but how could you measure something so fast? The only way to measure the speed (which they have tried) is have two people stand very far away. One person turns on a light (like a lighthouse) at a specific time and the observing person far away records the time they see the light.

There are a multitude of problems with this. First and foremost, you can't even see a light that is 186,000 miles away! Second, the radius of the Earth is about 25,000 miles, so there's nowhere on Earth you could go to measure it. Even if you stood at opposite corners of the Earth (Rev. 7:1), the light would take about a tenth of a second to arrive. (25,000/186,000=.13). That is less time that the human body can perceive or react to.

Conclusion: It is impossible to test the speed of light that secular science claims is possible.

The Speed of Light is just a completely harebrained idea with no bases in experiments or facts, which is paraded around by the Secular Scientist agenda.

Radius of the earth? That would imply the earth is round. Sir, the earth is flat and the proof is on a different post. I wont bore you with the details, but here is the link. http://www.landoverbaptist.net/showthread.php?t=40617


Let's keep the issue about light. Now, you're right about one thing, light truly has no "speed" Because even "scientists" would agree that speed is a relative function of direction, and because they believe light follows a linear path, anything blocking that path would stop light, resulting in patches of absolute darkness by buildings, under trees, ect.


As far as the original post is concerned, the answer is really quite simple and is answered in two parts and completely provable..


1. God does not need the same amount of light our feeble eyes do. Try this experiment. Stand in a room that you "think" is pitch black and wave your hand about 1" in front of your face. You can still see it right? There's clearly enough light, even in that dark room for you to see. Close your eyes and do it again. You can see the shadow of your hand on your eyelids! A shadow, in a room that's supposedly totally dark! Light clearly exists everywhere by the will of God.


(I'm taking your own quote on this one.)
2. "And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so. And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also. And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth," Genesis 1:15-17


The sun and the moon are simply that. Lesser lights, that god gave us to help us tell time. They still emit light, but it's not the great and universal light that is still present even in darkness. If we didn't have these lesser lights, we would not be able to tell what time it was.

Re: Does the Sun Even Emit Light?

You understand that you get warm in the sun don't you? That's photos (light) hitting you. No brushes but maybe a bad sunburn

Okay, you have explained that photos should have been photons (thank you, Rusty, for helping to clear that up), but what do brushes have to do with it? Are the photons (whatever they are) hitting us but not brushing us? How would that give anyone a sunburn? I thought you got sunburn from the sun - hence the name.

I just don't understand about the brushes.

Hello Section8.

I do not think photos come from the sun...

Yes, of course it should be obvious i meant to say "photons"

Hello, Ms. Section,

Yes, you get warm when you're in the Sun.

Now, let's see it this is causal. To do that, we have to examine, if you can get warm without the Sun. It turns out that you actually can!

In the oven.
Under a nice blanket.
In a coalmine.
During my journeyman years, in a Dutch sauna.
When excercising in a shadow or at night.

Thus, there is no causality. Warmth can exist without Sun and Sun without warmth. Ever been to Godless Greenland (I have)? It was midnight Sun but snow.

Haggai 1:6
Ye have sown much, and bring in little; ye eat, but ye have not enough; ye drink, but ye are not filled with drink; ye clothe you, but there is none warm; and he that earneth wages earneth wages to put it into a bag with holes.

Yours in Christ,

Elmer

PS. It's 'photons', one of the pagan scholar inventions to 'prove' this false causality.

Hello Section8.

I do not think photos come from the sun all of my photos come from the Walgreens across the street and they do not burn me or make me warm but sometimes the photos have a red tint they need to check their gamma levels.

Thank you.

Re: Does the Sun Even Emit Light?

Since we know that light cannot travel at all (we'd all be walking around covered in bruises from all the light hitting us all the time)

Re: Does the Sun Even Emit Light?

I think all you heathens are forgetting that God IS Light.


1 John 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

Re: Does the Sun Even Emit Light?

"God created light before he created the sun!"

Surely that would be your first clue that the Bible is *** ***, when it tells you that light can exist without an actual source. Also, if the sun isn't a source of light then how come it gets dark when it disappears over the horizon to the other side of the globe? Do you not believe in time zones either?

Dear Ms. Weezee,

Only yesterday we reported at this very Forum that scientists have discovered extra light in the Universe Created by God. They have considered the Sun, the Stars and other sources of light and concluded that there is more light than can be emitted from them.



Light cannot exist without an actual Source, but as stated above by Dr. Niles, the Source is Jesus, God.



Exodus 13:21 And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:


Yours in Christ,

Elmer

What are you talking about? Jesus is the source.

John 8:12 Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

No Jesus, no light. The Bible tells us to pray all the time so that we can follow Jesus's message and enjoy the bounty of His merciful, wonderous light.

1 Thessalonians 5:17 Pray without ceasing.

So it stands to reason that when True Cristians™ go to sleep (and stop praying) Jesus takes His light from the world as the above verse describes.

Your move, so called scientists

Re: Does the Sun Even Emit Light?

This:
Fusion happens at the Sun's core. Hydrogen atoms are fused together into Helium, a process that creates a lot of heat and light... energy. This energy is transferred through space as radiation. Infrared, visible light, ultraviolet... the whole electromagnetic spectrum travels to us through the vacuum of space... when it strikes the Earth, the Earth reflects and absorbs certain percentages of certain wavelengths, giving us light, and conduction happens, giving us heat.

Oh yes? And just how many times have you been to the sun?
