Re: Hi

That is not the same, because in that situation there are witnesses, living witnesses, standing by to attest to what they saw. When the world was first created, there were no living things at all, let alone something that could speak or write to record what had happened. Written history is comparatively a new thing when you look at how long this earth has been around.

God was there. If you cannot trust Him, who can you trust. Shortly after God was Adam, then Eve, both clearly documented citizens of Eden. The history of the world is extremely obvious way back then. There was a lot less going on.

Who among your scientists, witnessed the 'big bang'? The creation of the Earth and the Sun, Your 'primordial soup? According to your religion, man was around for millions of years before history was recorded.

We have cold hard fact that God created the Earth only 6,000 years ago and has been recording information for about 4,000 of those years.

2,000 is a heck of a lot less than millions, don't you agree when it comes to memory.

How is God not a living thing?

Even if God is outright lying about the creation of the world, it wouldn't matter. God is all powerful so He could simply remake the past so the world is created the way He says it was. PRAISE

Re: Hi

It would be pointless to try and argue creation with you because you will just mock anything I say, but I will tell you my belief anyways:

I believe it is impossible to know exactly how the world was created in this day and age, that it is so far back in history, beyond even the age of human beings, that really all we can do is speculate. I do however still stand firm that the christian god creating the world is just bogus. I think something like (but not necessarily exactly the same as) the big bang theory is more likely. Maybe once science has advanced further we may have some sort of method that could tell us exactly how it happened, but I doubt it will be in my lifetime.

We would never mock you. That is rude for saying that.

Why would it be impossible to know? How do you know what happened 20 years ago, before you were born?

Let me ask you a question. A empty headed child breaks a vase. You ask him how it happened. He says he does not know, that maybe a white haired monster came and threw in on the floor.
Do you believe the child or would you believe the fatherly gentleman standing by, the fine fellow who witnessed the whole thing and even made notes about it in His journal?
The child obviously is lying and trying to make you believe a theory. The honest man was an actual witness and immediately when the act occurred, made notes as to prevent memory from potentially clouding His recollection or any future history buffs.

Re: Hi

I see, so you do not feel God Created the Earth.Who did, his cousin? Did the Earth and all the peole, animals and plants just magically appear by pure happenstance. Have any other fairly tales you'd like to share?

Re: Hi

..............Well, for one I do NOT think that god created the earth and all the people. But if he did I would assume it was so that he can feel special by having his minions bow and scrape and watch them try and follow all the rules he set for them, even the ones that contradict themselves.

Re: Hi

Where in any of my posts did I even suggest that I was having sex over and over and over?

Re: Hi

First this,

I believe that Christianity is created in the middle ages

then this

I never said that

Re: Hi

I was baptized at 16-17 (I believe it was 17, second half of my Junior year in high school), back when I was all "super-Christian girl", but by the time I was halfway through my senior year of high school I was considering myself agnostic, and then in college I was full-blown atheist.

This is the problem with modern girls. They have unsafe sex over and over till they reach the point where their soul is completely consumed by sin and they turn away from Jesus to Satan's atheism. Not to mention the countless innocent boys they destroy along the way.

Re: Hi

I still find it's interesting that you BELIEVE point where Christianity came widely accepted is where Chirtianity was created. Created at same time when it bacame popular? I'm no historian, but this seems bit inaccurate. And I fail to see how this is matter of faith. Of course it all follows gods plan, but still.

But I really don't blame you. Being over 17 and unmarried must have really tested your faith and by the looks of it, turned you into very bitter as well. Even though you are already 19, it does not mean God has doomed you being oldmaid rest of your days. You have still time to find good Christian husband to set you straight. You will be much happier when you don't have to make desicions for yourself anymore, and you are fulfilling God's purpose to produse good Christian sons for humanity.

I never said that. Christianity was founded in ancient Rome, it became popular after the fall of Rome when Constantine became the first Christian emperor of Rome, when he created Constantinople, after the German barbarians took over the western part of Rome. Before that Christians were a minority, but Constantine made it ok to be a Christian and it became almost a fad, it replaced the pagan majority.

And Mitza, I'm not sure exactly what you are implying when you quote me there, but all I said was true. I was baptized at 16-17 (I believe it was 17, second half of my Junior year in high school), back when I was all "super-Christian girl", but by the time I was halfway through my senior year of high school I was considering myself agnostic, and then in college I was full-blown atheist.

Re: Hi

I was baptized again when I was 17, it was a personal choice I made after much consideration. I go to church twice a week, once on Wednesday to attend the youth portion, and of course on Sunday when I go to Sunday classes.

I don't believe in god God

You should never mix religion and politics.

Thank you for correcting me there brother. I already feel I've become more pedantic christian since I joined these forums.

Thank you for pointing out those inconsistencies. I was about to do something similar. You beat me to it.

Re: Hi

The time period that Christianity became widely accepted among the people is during the fall of the roman empire (kind of ironic isn't it?), which is the beginning of the middle ages.
