Re: Mars
Actually, we do know exactly how life came to be on Earth. Read Genesis.
You'll notice that Genesis contains a thorough, scientific explanation of how and why life came to be on Earth, but it mentions nothing about life on other planets. If such life exists, it's not our concern, because God would have mentioned it if it was important.

Re: Mars
Well sort of. I doubt that science has found out all we need to know to say what life is or where it came from. But there it is. Is it just on our world?Originally posted by Faith_Machine View PostThe whole alien hypothesis hinges on the fanciful notion that life evolved on another planet similar to our own, and then aliens traveled here.
That was a good postOriginally posted by Faith_Machine View PostThere you go again with your talk of pods. Can you point to even one space mission, from NASA, the USSR, the Chinese Space Agency, or anywhere else, that has employed "pods" as a means of landing?
there's at least one sane person on board. So not just 2 or 3 space jaunts to choose from. There's stacks of 'em, just as you said!
By now we've sent probes to the edge of our home, the whole world of the Sun and its strong wind which may soon be used to "blow" us on our way to our next star. What will we find there?
As I said, we don't know how life came to be on the Earth. We know it is here and from your point of view I feel that God, who has more life than we do, would speak life to all the stars he made not just our Sol.OK, fine. Let's pretend that's not absurd for just a minute.
Explain to me, please, exactly how life that evolved on another planet, completely separated from ours, could possibly wind up producing a species of intelligent life that was "the same as us"?
(If you tell me you don't believe in evolution, by the way, I will shout "GLORY" and reconsider my belief that you are beyond saving.)
If you like genes then he would have the same genes sprout in the dust of all blown up type 2 stars which he then "used" to "make" the type 1 stars (such as Sol) and all their worlds (such as Earth).
Did genes come first, in the dust Genesis 2:7 of old stars or did the Earth come first, then genes? I don't know which it was but it would be the same for "them" as for "us" and "we" may well be "they" in the hands of your God.To breed
we'd need
to be the same,
that's for sure!

Re: Mars
Well the fact that he said it looked like God does not mean it was God. But that's not the point. It's the bits where he says the things he saw were NOT GODOriginally posted by Redeemed Papist View PostEzekiel 1:28As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. And when I saw it, I fell upon my face, and I heard a voice of one that spake.
In your immense scripture twisting did you miss this nugget of wisdom?
Ezekiel 1:14,16,19-20,22,24 He wants to tell us what he saw but seems not quite to have the words. He knows that and does the best he can. What he writes is plain but does use words like "like this" or "that" just as we would if we'd seen that, then. Now we do have the words. We might say "roared like a jet" or "it was a jet". I don't know. What do you think he meant? I know that where he has "the Lord" he means "God" but what of the rest? He goes out of his way to make clear that he doen NOT mean "God" as Paul did, now and then.
I Corinthians 7:6,12,25
I know less. I have not seen what he saw and doubt that I will but might, one day. He knew his "God" was not a beast, nor was "God" a man. I know that too. So do you. What we read, then, is clear. So on the bits that do not talk of "God's voice" or how he "shines" what do you have to say? What were those things? It is plain to see they're not God or else we'd read "and the Lord said" or "the voice of the Lord came to me" or some such and we do read that but not here. I know what the bits about "God" mean. What does the rest of it mean?Ezekiel 3:16-17Ezekiel, a learned and great man was in no doubt as to what He was speaking of. Yet you know better, of course.
16And it came to pass at the end of seven days, that the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, 17Son of man, I have made thee a watchman unto the house of Israel: therefore hear the word at my mouth, and give them warning from me.
That's why I post, to see what you all think.

Re: Mars
Hi RedOriginally posted by RedI love the way you patronisingly assume that a great man like Ezekiel was incapable of recording exactly what he saw.

Thanks for your postOriginally posted by Lady Effect View PostAmen, Brother!
Another proof that we shouldn't be open-minded, only when the open Bible is in our hands, otherwise Satan jumps in our heart and turns it into some kind of jelly!
This thread is freaky stuff! Nice photos, btw., have you guys ever heard of Photoshop?
So, posting here "proving photos" is unnecessary.
1 Corinthians 12:10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues.
I just take words as they are, my heart does not jump and I am sure those men of old were sound.
So what did they see? Yes, I post my thoughts. Could it be so? And I'll learn here too. That's good.
What do you think?

Yes, or badge such as Air Force 1 (note badge at front) Air Force 1 (note badge at front) Air Force 1 (nose, check it out)just happened to engage in the very human practice of adorning their space ships with WWII style airplane nose art.
No.That's quite a coincidence, don't you think?

Re: Mars
Really? A flying machine with four faces would look exactly like a photo of some "astronauts" riding inside the vomit comet in order to convince you they were floating in space?Originally posted by Adam Ski View PostNo but that's what it would look like.
That's an odd assertion, my friend.
Have you heard of "nose art"?

these may be film stars or beasts (sharks' mouths are well known), some badge or seal such as this one
OK. So you're saying that thousands of years ago, Ezekiel encountered a flying machine created by a completely non-human intelligence, and those utterly alien creatures just happened to engage in the very human practice of adorning their space ships with WWII style airplane nose art.

Oh, wait, I get it: We got the idea for nose art from our alien progenitors!
Brilliant, carry on.
