[On why the dinosaurs went extinct]
The other theory is that before Adam and Eve were the dinosaurs. God created them and didn't like them so He flooded the earth and started again.

I don't mean to sound offensive, but whoever started this argment about Noah's ark did not do much research.
Otherwise you would realize that durng orld ar II, the United States build a ship according to the measurement of Noah's ark and it was one bad baby. No one wanted to meswith that joker.
Now a far as species go, I don;t know how many species they say there are today. Maybe they do say 6 million or 30 million. I can tell you that the apportionment of the number of species has been determined by Evolutionary THEORY and is thus not a provable fact. There way of defining species does not have to be ds way of definig species. I can tell you this as well, because of evolutionary THEORY the nuber of species has increased. Why because we have for it to do so. Of course not, but rather it fits well into the model of evolution.
findit aazing hw ou accus Christians of gong close-mided and on a set worldview whn youyourself do exactly the same.
[Replying to 'Muslims aren't imposing their god on North American people through the government']I'm sorry, but that is one of the most ignorant statements I have ever heard. Muslims brought 2 skyscrapers down in New York and slaughtered over 3000 people trying to impose their God on us.
Unbelieving parents do not have a covenant with God and are in his disfavor. Their children would not be under a "spiritual blanket" and would face the same punishment as their parents.
I think this idea is supported by the cleansing of Canaan. Joshua was commanded to kill every living thing, which included children and babies. Infants were considered unclean since they were members of a pagan culture that their parents participated. Israeli children were considered clean because they were part of God's chosen culture.
Plus, the bible hasn't yet been proven wrong or fallable. Yes there have been several links and websites saying they have, but shoot guys, there is a website proving that there wasn't a haullacost(sp?) and that all the jews fronted the 6 million deaths to make the germans look bad. If people can be so easily thrown by that one little thing from a huge action that happened, then of course you will be thrown and lead to beleive something about something so minor and detailed.
The only thing else I want to say about this is even if this finding turns out to be a hoax, which I believe it is not, there is no denying the fact that Jesus Christ was a REAL person. You don't have to believe that He was the son of God, but you should believe that he existed as a person. If He didnt exist why would we base our calendars off His birth and His death?
I still disagree with the fact that its genetic... It doesn't make sense that your sexual orinatation could be determined by lil proteins floting around in my cells.
So adaption means evolution. If we as humans lived in the water long enough we would grow gills to adapt. Or those living in high rise buildings would grow wings.
One, the things u have there for proof of evolution are in fact nothing but lies. Chew on this, that is an example of microevolution. Which that is possible by just pure experimentation. However, you are arguing that this 'microevolution' proves 'macroevolution.' U see there is a big difference. Micro has to deal with microscopic organisms Such as bacteria. Macro has to deal with visual organisms Such as things you can see(apes). The problem starts when u try to prove 'macroevolution' with 'microevolution.' YOu see there is proof for 'micro' but none for 'macro.' When you show me a picture of half ape half man then and only then can you state your evolution 'theory', which is really nothing but a religion, As fact. If you really want someone to show you more go to www.drdino.com . Peace out for right now. Remember none can stand against God....not even these evolution punks.
This is an uneducated statement because I've heard nothing but contradictions of evolution from evolutionists and creationists. The fact that there is still apes is one of millions.
Do you believe in evolution? (I'm assuming you do since you don't believe in God) Do you realize that Creationism fits every single piece of evidence better that evolution?
... to be honest thats why I became a believer , because the bible states that if you believe in any of Gods word you have to believe it all...I have always had a natural ability to tell if someone is lying or if something is not true...
If you look closely at a bar code it has '666' on it. Now if you want to be ignorant on the whole thing and be rediculous thats fine. Not my place to judge you that is God's, but i would suggest you watch yourself before the anti-christ comes along and you think its some joke and you put that crap on you only its permanant and wont wash off like pen. That is why you SHOULD NOT take it lightly.
[In discussion on Biblical atrocities, replying to 'If God told you to slaughter a baby would you do it?']
if God walked through my front door and told me that I was suppose to help in wiping out in an entire nation then yes i would
but you'll just say that I must be some horrible person that follows a horrible God...oh well deal with it
The death penalty IS NOT MURDER. It is not killing for fun, it is not done in happiness or for even vengance, but it is a necessity, a device used so that peace can be achieved. It is an act of war the same as any other. It truly is an act of love towards society and a necessity to those who love peace. I believe that Jesus is for the death penalty, and expects punishment on those he loves.
Our lack of knowledge is one of the biggest reasons I believe in God
Hitler was a evolutionist though. He thought we evolved and that some races were inferior. Im not a walking bibliography card so I cant always give you a source. Go look Up the founder of planned parenthood though. If you look into her history youll see she was a nazi scientist into that perfect race stuff. Please argue against these point reasonably.
I think Monkeys having monkey babies disproves evolution. Apparently we evolved from them, so why are they still here. Until I see a monkey pop out a human, I will never believe it.
Aawww yes....let's just "imagine" life without heaven or hell, God or the devil....it's easy if you try.
John Lennon was blinded by supposed "humanitarian love" Alot of atheists claim that humanitarinism is a great alternative. But if there is no God then who cares about being kind to humanity. It won't matter. We all fade to nothing, and we die. So who in the heck do I have to answer to. I can do whatever I want without fear of punishment. Hitler was ok..whose to say he was wrong.....if there is no God, there is no wrong. Sure, murder, stealing, fornication, homosexuality...anything goes without God. Don't try to tell me that somehow "weather it hurts someone or not" is how we find right and wrong. I'm telling you without God no one is going to stop anyone from all out murder and mayhem. If you think there is no God then "imagine" God just turning his back on the world for 5 seconds. I'll bet that death would come almost instantly.
[After deciding to stop arguing that evolution shouldn't be taught because it's a 'religion']
Ok, fine, anything which cannot be proven [shouldn't be taught], there satisfied. Good. Don't teach it or teach em all.
My reasons for doubting are simple, yet incredibly hard to explain. Let me say this: look at modern dogs. They vary so much in size, shape, and other characteristics, yet they are all dogs and are produced not by Evolution (chance mutations with survival of the fittest) but by their built-in ability to reproduce. Yet, if you were to give me a plethora of modern dog bones (died within the last few years), I could eventually assemble them in such a way as to make one set of bones appear to be an evolved version of another set. And I could easy do such a thing by insinuating (and assuming) that any "gaps" in my little "evolutionary record" are simply fossils that haven't been found yet, or have been destroyed by whatever means.
If you dont see what im getting at , I feel very sorry for you. x=somthing yah it could equal 0 right? Yet the number 0 in this realm is not equal to nothing . You see If there was nothing , nothing would exist. We exist though and the universe exist. From what I see your trapped in your own anguish. Im going to list alot of evidence for christianity in another post (read above). How will you know the truth if you dont know whats false? Meaning how will you know the truth if you just assume somthing has lack of evidence and is false.
Just a thought. Someone said that 2 guys having sex doesnt hurt anyone. Well maybe not now, but what if every year, more and more people become homosexuals... Who on earth is going to keep the population growing. Its a slow death that will kill the human race... And thats not gay bashing, just a reality.
[Marriage advice]One of the problems with people today is that they misunderstand what love is. Love is a choice, not a feeling. Choose to love your husband.
[On pornography]
The problem is that there is way to much of it, it promotes the degrading of human worth, destroys our childrens goals, feeds pediphiles and child molestors with motivation, destroys families, causes disease, depression, abortions,etc.
Pornography = murder, child rape, and infanticide.
They are called the 10 Commandments. Check them out. What good is morality if it's only based on your own reason? That sounds pretty arbitrary to me.
... you would be surprised how many scientists are scrapping the evolutionist (Cosmologist) theory and looking for new answers... Your theory is not just blindly accepted as fact by everybody anymore!
The answer is that atheism is not only a belief in no God..It is an agenda, an ORGANIZED effort to kill any sign of God..In fact every year atheists ask for funding from the government...Oh ok, so then you are a religion...Why do the heathen rage? What is making them so angry? Why are they forcing God out of school? Why else would they come onto these boards, blapheme God anyway they can, mock prayer request threads(ahem..paul2), spit on the Bible, spit on faith, and generally hate all organized religion?????
THERE IS NO POSSIBLE WAY THAT WE ARE HERE WITHOUT A CREATOR!!! NONE!! NADA!! This is why I disregard all "advances" in science. Because If scientists are going to leave their brains in the parking lot on the fact that God simply must exist if we exist. then why would they use their brains for anything else. We accuse you of everything you accuse us, including circular reasoning..but just one thing, WE'RE RIGHT!!
[On the Da Vinci Code, a best-selling book that includes Jesus' fathering a child with Mary Magdalene]I wasn't aware that everytime somebody used their imagination to write a novel, that we should all of a sudden take their fiction to be historical truth... with no evidence either explicit or implicit to back any of these wild unsupported hypotheses.
[On Reinhard Bonnke, a faith healer]
i have some booklet that the guy helped write or something on the holy spirit - its pretty good
it was at his church service that a wife brought her 3 days already dead husband in, and the guy got ressurected
And you sir are a pompus blustering ignoramus Who should look more at the original basis of evolution not the latest version to match your 'facts' Don't just blindly call names mate it doesn't back up your theory at all!
he doesn't send anyone to hell they march proudly into it
[Arguing against antidepressants]
The best ways to rid yourself of depression are to keep yourself distracted, or figure out exactly what it is that's depressing you and why it is that it's depressing you.
Because there is no other God's but the God of Heaven and Jesus Christ, His Son. Ok, answer this: When you pray MagnaGei, do you get a answer from your god(s)? I do when I pray to my God in the name of Jesus.
Genesis-Revelations. Tells me all i need 2 know. Let these athiests believe what they want, one day, they will be on their knees, praising Jesus and trying 2 get out of the mistake they made.
[On why he believes pagans object to Christianity]
It reduces your social life to zilch. He/She's merely providing an excuse so they can do bad stuff and think they get away wif it.
You know scientists and all you people that straddle there coat tails are missing a huge fact...the earth was unable to support any form of life as we know it today around or even millions of years after we supposedly started evolving from the single cell organism...and what the hell makes anyone think we can evolve from apes or monkeys or anything ellse that are dna doesn't match? our blood and genetic makeup is just not compatible , and that makes all the differance.
But I watched a show on TBN the other night, and now I know nothing is going to cause me to not believe God is real.
Ultimately, my religious views can't be wrong, because the words were breathed out by God in the original manuscripts. Your religious views however, can be wrong, because you are taking the doctrine of fallible men and trying to make them infallible (the essence of the 'theory,' not the details).
Why are you making it hard for yourself to belive that Jesus did die on a cross and rose again from the dead three days later.
For example, I have reasoned that my faith in God is true. Since I've done that, I'm making the claim that a follower of Muhammed doesn't truly have faith; though they claim they do. They've either mis-interpreted evidence, ignored evidence, or have been deceived.
[To a person whose father committed adultery]I do want to say this: Not to hound your mom, but that is one of the reasons why wives should not work... Cause they are suppossed to help out the husband and keep him adequate. Plus they will be attacked by "wolves" (horney men)
The Atheist peoples are scared of change.
That's the main thing holding Atheists back from God. A fear of change. So when Christians talk about God they get all cut and slander Christians cause they are trying to justify the sinful world they live in. Hence their belief in evolution.
The peoples who created the big bang theory know it's bullshit... but they've convinced themselves in their minds that it's truth... cause they're afraid of change and having their egos destroyed.
But we as Christians know what is truth... not only in our heads but also in our hearts. We know what's truth cause we feel the truth and the heart doesn't lie. And that is why evolution will never destroy what faith we have.
... saying u used to believe it and now you don't, that tells me that you never actually believed or understood a thing about what we're about, and you still don't. Kindly take you arrogant views and F*ck Off!
The only problem with the Bible being stories and myth or whatnot is that it would be very unique. I mean, all of it's major players ahve huge falws with them. Look at David. Great guy, man after God's own heart. Adulturer and murderer. He's not the perfect heroe like heroes should be. The Bible is all too true in its depiction of men.
God made it. That is how. Did you know that there is no proff that this world just came to be by some thing. God made it. Did you know that if this world was a little closer to the sun, we'd all burn up, or is this world was a little further away from the sun, we'd all freez to death. No doubt about it, God is real. Stop trying to understand it, just except it.
Do you honestly think that you are the original in raising these questions? If the Bible could be proven false/and or/inaccurate, then Christianity wouldn't have survived 2000 years of persecution. People aren't willling to be burned alive and cut in half for lies. The only way that I see anyone could stand by their beliefs through all this because a loving God changed their lives through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
I'm new to the forums but i just wanted to say that there has NEVER been any proof to the theory of Evolution. A few years back they thought they had found the 'missing link' but it turns out it was a fake. With that said I believe that evolution is complete crap!!!!
I really don't care if it's circular. I don't care what you believe about me or my logic. I am content with my faith. It makes me a better person and I am finally happy....
