you cant say you respect them then say "lol fish to human." i also dont really have beliefs, per se. i do my best to draw conclusions based on what is presented, and i'm not afraid to accept that there are things we just don't know yet. there was a time people didn't know wtf lightning was. there was a time we had no understanding at all about matter. atoms, elements, etc.
the issue is you seem to be ignoring inconsistencies/fallacies because you yourself are reading with an agenda.
you told me that in the context of the story of genesis, a day was 1,000 years or so. where is this milennium long gap?
God told Noah that it would rain for 40 days and 40 nights. those were god's word. from God's perspective. did he mean 40,000 years?
No, because he was speaking to Noah. Noah is a man, not God. If he said 40 days then he meant 40 days according to Noah, a human, not God.
1,000 years is a ing long time, especially if the young earth model has the earth at something like 6-10 thousand years old. just curious as to which part of biblical history was god absent for 1,000 years
What fallacies?
well, the bible is the word of god told to a human (it was, of course, written by human hand)
What are you even talking about? What point of created man on the 6th and rested on the 7th do you not understand?
I have always said on this site that I am a Christian and more specifically a Catholic, but I have no insecurities in that regard that compels me to defend my faith from the more fanatical atheists on here or the fanatical theists on here.
I was once atheistic or agnostic myself too so I understand where they are coming from.
But all along I was seeking the truth, and I feel I am one of the fortunate ones to have found it.
It didn't come to me in the usual methods as in books or preachers or religious people, rather it came from deep within myself.
You mention that you know plenty of good people who happen to be atheists. So do I. And I know plenty of very bad people who are Christians.
The good Christians I know vary in their beliefs but almost none of them would ever say that an atheist is for sure going to . Even Pope Francis says an atheist can go to Heaven because we are all judged by our ACTS. In other words, anyone can get there depending on how we live our lives and doing the WORK of God even though we do not believe in Him.
Of course, an atheist also does not believe in Heaven and so to them it is not an issue as long as they lead a good, productive, and giving life.
As I said before, when you get down to the basics, it isn't necessarily what you believe or Who you believe in, it is rather HOW you live your life.
Most of the atheists and theists I know have no problems with each other, they are secure within themselves and get along with each other famously, and would never ridicule the other for their individual beliefs or disbeliefs.
Those who do this, like on here, are as far from being God like and human as you can get.
And I dare say they are probably very unhappy and goalless in their real lives as they portray themselves to be in this forum.
But it is their own fault and no others.
Because they are free to be whatever they wish, they control their own destinies.
this deep seeded hatred towards gays says at least one of two things, maybe both:
1) you're a closet sexual that's fronting
2) you're incredibly unintelligent
now fantasize some more about my sexual orientation, Bible beater.
you told me these "days" are roughly 1,000 years though
Day when speaking about God= a thousand years.
Day when speaking about man means 24 hour day.
Even today "day" has different meaning when used in different context.
I could say "back in my day", does that mean a specific date or various days in general?
I did, what is your point?
so how can you possibly know when a day actually meant a day, when it meant a milennium? for all you know, god in fact meant a single earth day in the book of genesis and he literally made the earth and life in a week. maybe in the book of genesis, god meant an hour when he said day, and that he claims to have made earth and life in a span of 7 hours
so with that line of reasoning God rested for roughly 1,000 years (the 7th day, where day is roughly 1,000 years)
Because the author is referring to "day" in Gods viewpoint, not a mans.
when god told the author a day, he meant 1,000 years, but when he told Noah a day, he meant a day? how could you possibly know that. who are you to tell what viewpoint god was talking in?
So when the Bible says Adam lived to be 960 years old, are we still using day = 1000 years math?
you're so re ed
Because they were talking about God, how can I make it any clearer? God was talking to Noah, a man, why would he tell Noah 40 days and mean 40,000 days when he knew Noah was a man and to him day meant around a 24 hour period.
apparently robdiaz is a prophet who can tell us when god was talking in a certain viewpoint, and when he was talking in a different viewpoint. only the great robdiaz knows when God meant day = day or when day = 1,000 years
No, because it is referring to a human. LOL YOUR EX WIFESo when the Bible says Adam lived to be 960 years old, are we still using day = 1000 years math?
God was talking to the author, a man. why would he tell the author 1 day and mean 1,000 days when he knew the author was a man and to him day meant around a 24 hour period
So when the Bible says Adam lived to be 960 years old, are we still using day = 1000 years math?
Wait,
you enrolled your kid in a religious school where she will learn exactly what you are labeling someone "re ed" for -
I think any reasonable person can conclude that your re -ness will pretty much cause your own kid a lot of grief!
Lol making up
Lol re
