Where did life begin? (Merged)

Each of them insist their interpretation of the scriptures is the right one. Yet, the message is different.

that's why you study the bible and rightly divide it so that you know the truth yourself. if it can be rightly divided it can be wrongly divided. I'm not trying to be a smarty pants but when you stand before God. you are gonna be responsible for searching these things out for yourself.

Im not pissing on anyone's beliefs snowflake. Frankly this forum is nothing if it's not 100% debate of closely held beliefs.

I fail to see why religion should suddenly be off limits. In fact I think it should be open season on the role of religion as it pertains to this forum.

This guy is clearly unabashed in his spirituality and seems to be handling himself just fine. I doubt he needs a white knight like you to protect him from heathens like me. I'm genuinely fascinated by his worldview.

He seems satisfied with his life. I'm happy for him.

I never thought he was coming here, and didn't really want him. I thought he might pull in some recruits for a year or two, and then flame out.

May I suggest you try The Ancestors Tale by Dawkins?

 

[a vol n tears]

That's called an argument from ignorance. How do you know it wasn't Allah, Vishnu, or Zeus?

Jesus is the only living GOD. The ones you mention are dead. Not being smart, just stating the truth

I don't really care for fictional books! :crazy:

We clearly have a different understanding of the term 'living'.

darwins theory of evolution is ludicrous! adaptation is a far cry from one kind of animal evolving to another kind! dogs always make dogs. horses always make some kind of horse!
and might I ad. if monkeys used to make men. why don't they still make men?:crazy:

I see. You asked me for an explanation after suggesting a rock was included in the evolutionary process. You don't have to believe it to further your knowledge of it.

You think people really prayed for a football coach? Lol.

I was forced to study it in school. I do have some knowledge on the subject and have concluded that Darwin must have smoked a lot of dope!!!!

Ohhh. Imma go out on a limb and guess you're a young earth Ken Ham guy? Amiright?

 

[BigO95]

Ron I simply believe the biblical account of creation.

I can't believe you don't. There's not a doubt in my mind. Heck this guy prayed (and fasted) so his aunts basement speakeasy would tank.

 

[BigO95]

Although I do very much appreciate brother Ham!

I don't know, but there seems to be better evidence for "random chance."

Does it make sense that God sent his son, who is also himself, to die as a human being, to somehow atone for the crimes of two people (made from mud and a rib), who were tricked by a talking snake, eating a magic apple?

No there doesnt seem to be more evidence for random chance. To our knowledge, Earth is the only planet in our solar system that can support carbon based life. Its in the perfect spot in relation to the sun. Any closer or farther and we couldnt survive. Earth has an atmosphere that protects us from solar radiation and space debris. All that happened by random chance? Thats absurd.

My personal opinion is this. I do not understand the reasoning behind what God is doing or has done. I dont think our brains are capable of understanding that. To try and use earthly concepts such as reason and logic to God is simply ridiculous.

Personally, I have seen many miracles that prove the existence of God. I dont need any other proof than that.

Don't worry septic. I will pray for you tonight!
