The description of dragons sounds like a dinosaur to me... a giant lizard... just another example that humans and dinosaurs once coexisted.<br /><br />Show me where the Bible says to beat and kill slaves, homosexuals, and adulturers. Give me scriptures or else your claims are false. <br /><br />Read my article on the King James, and then find the link on my page to where you can read the book "Final Authority" By William Grady... I don't have time to explain to you how the King James was made. The books that were left out were done so because they were obviously not inspired by God and mismatched the rest of the books... for example the book of Enoch which was very unscientific... not only was it obvious that none of it was true because it wasn't scientifically true, but it also contradicted the rest of the scriptures in such a way that it was ridiculous. All books of the Bible are scientifically accurate and cannot be proven otherwise.<br /><br />The definition of a Christian (from dictionary.com): 1: of, pertaining to, or derived from Jesus Christ or His teachings: a Christian faith. 2: exhibiting a spirit proper to a follower of Jesus Christ; Christlike: She displayed true Christian charity. a person who believes in Jesus Christ; adherent of Christianity.<br />8. a person who exemplifies in his or her life the teachings of Christ: He died like a true Christian.JATomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16719219290647523740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-27020008141745934392009-07-30T13:33:08.437-07:002009-07-30T13:33:08.437-07:00Prove me wrong, so far you havent shown anything ...Prove me wrong, so far you havent shown anything but bias articles.<br /> <br />You have made outlandish claims with nothing to back it up except that its in the bible, and you know that the earth is 6000 years old, that dinosaurs lived alongside man, that Noah built an Ark big enough for millions of species of animals(considering you dont buy the devolution theory) and his whole family of giants(the animals would be much larger too did you forget ratios?). <br /><br />Do you believe in firebreathing dragons too? Like the kook in the article you posted previously. You said you would find some real proof for your claims. <br /><br />The bible says a lot thing, it talks about going to church, and what foods you should eat. It also talks about beating and killing slaves, adulterers, and homosexuals.<br /><br />How was the King James bible, constructed? Did they roll a die to figure out which books to leave in and which ones to take out?<br /><br />What do you have to say about all of these christians that disagree with you? Are they not christians?Stephennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-78393994251159715662009-07-23T22:06:28.781-07:002009-07-23T22:06:28.781-07:00How can you possibly say how long the ark is? You...How can you possibly say how long the ark is? You can't know for certain how long a cubit was back in Noah's day. Most people give the dimensions of the ark by making a cubit equal to 18 inches. However, the cubit is based on the length between the tip of the middle finger and the elbow. Ancient cubits were different sizes but most were from 20 to 22 inches long. Only the smallest cubit was about 18 inches. Consider this. What if the standard cubit in Noah’s day was determined by the arms of the giants who lived in the earth? At least, the cubit was very likely longer than 18 inches. Measured with 18-inch cubits, the ark is still a very large ship. The three stories of the ark would have over 100,000 square feet of approximately 2 1/3 acres. If some of the rooms (Genesis 6:14) were built as cages on top of one another (the stories averaged 15 or more feet high), then much more space would have been available.<br /><br />Also, some animals are able to go into hibernation when called upon to do so, and thus require both less space and less food, and seeing as how anything is possible with God, it is possible that they were put into hibernation since God took so much care to bring them to Noah in the first place so that they could be preserved.<br /><br />And yes, I did bring up my personal life, but I never claimed you were attacking it or my beliefs, and I wish you would not put words in my mouth claiming that I claimed that.<br /><br />I fail to see how I "discredit my explanation." Scriptures are pretty specific and by using scriptures I in no way discredit my faith. The Bible can be religion and science both. The Bible is consistently scientifically accurate, and has not been found to be inaccurate. No scientist can prove the Bible to be scientifically inaccurate.JATomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16719219290647523740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-73484476151685384612009-07-17T23:19:06.219-07:002009-07-17T23:19:06.219-07:00I can tell how much research you have done, becaus...I can tell how much research you have done, because you haven't read those articles.

Then how is apart of mainstream science?Stephennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-77357609643970315042009-07-17T22:31:35.736-07:002009-07-17T22:31:35.736-07:00Stephan: I wrote AKA THE BIG BANG for a reason, b...Stephan: I wrote AKA THE BIG BANG for a reason, because I was referring to the big bang because what you say sounds an awful lot like you are referring to the theory. If I said that it couldn't have started from nothing (as in God made it from nothing) I would have put that. I'll look up some other "non Christian" articles for you.<br /><br />You should be ashamed for putting words into my mouth. I never said you HAD to believe every word in the Bible to be a Christian. In fact there are Christians who have never even seen a Bible or opened up one if they had one. I only said that you had to take the Bible in whole, not in part, or else you are making up your own religion.<br /><br />As for the ark, I claim nothing except what the Bible claims. God provided food for the Israelites daily when they left Egypt with Moses... do you think he couldn't replenish the food on the Ark? Is he not powerful enough to do this? And a cubit was A LOT bigger then than it was now, making the ark A LOT bigger than people assume it to have been. And since God wanted Noah to pack all those animals on board in order to save them, don't you think he would make it so the animals had time to spread out and reproduce instead of just letting them kill each other off right there? God isn't stupid as you make him out to be sometimes.<br /><br />The King James Bible was not constructed from six different versions. I've done a lot of research on this. Read "Final Authority" by William Grady, who has done extensive research on the topic of the translation of the various Bibles including the King James.<br /><br />We can know how old "old" is. The Bible tells us it's around 6,000-7,000 years.<br /><br />Again, you put words into my mouth. I never claimed you were attacking my beliefs or my domestic situation. As far as I'm concerned we are having a conversation on the topic.<br /><br />I have not discredited my explanation, and have in no way removed it from "mainstream science."JATomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16719219290647523740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-54668506715006815682009-07-17T22:03:41.299-07:002009-07-17T22:03:41.299-07:00My god are you that dense or do you just selective...My god are you that dense or do you just selectively read? You claim god created the universe from nothing. Do you forget what you write immediately after writing it? I never claimed to believe in the "big bang". History shows us that the secrets of the universe are so incredible its hard to even imagine it.<br /> <br />“ And as for another answer to your question about seeing stars so far away, did you know that light is actually slowing down as the universe gets older? Thus making telling time by light unreliable. See this article and do some more research on it for yourself.”<br /><br />That is one of the highly bias articles I read and the author is one of the "experts" I mentioned. That site also claims greenhouse gasses have no effect, fire breathing dragons once existed, and were herbivores. He also supports the genetic devolution of the human race (and logically other creatures). It is absurd to believe that that minister McMurtry, with a doctorate in bible science, or some other theistic bible college degree, has a better grasp of math and physics, (especially concerning light speed) than Einstein and the like.<br /><br />Until you show me something that isn’t from a Christian web site or taken directly off of Wikipedia you have no credibility. Wikipedia is highly edited and changes almost daily by people with differing opinions. So insulting me for having faulty facts is asinine. <br /><br />I thought all you had to do to be a Christian was accept you’re a sinner and Jesus died for your sins. Not believe every single word and story in the bible is literally what happened. You should be ashamed.<br /><br />The ark was about half the size of an aircraft carrier and nowhere near as tall. And you’re actually claiming that he stuffed every animal on there with enough food to last for at least a year, if he took juveniles some of the animals would not be of breeding age. Then when the animals left the ark the predatory animals didn’t attack prey animals?<br /><br />Once again I DO NOT DENIE ANYTHING INCLUDING GOD, I am not that single minded. <br /><br />Here are a few references on the different definitions of day and age or yom, including one from your favorite website. The whole of the bible was translated from Hebrew and Greek, into Latin and German, and finally into English. However there were many versions based on who translated them, and the King James Bible was constructed from at least six different versions.<br /> <br />http://www.godandscience.org/apologetics/day-age.html<br /><br />http://www.accuracyingenesis.com/day.html<br /><br />http://www.greatsite.com/timeline-english-bible-history/<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young%27s_Literal_Translation<br /><br />I proposed that god would have had to create the universe with age, but you cant know how old how old it is.<br /><br />I am not attack you for your beliefs or your domestic situation, it is incomprehensible to me why you would discredit your own explanation for a awe inspiring event like the creation of the universe, by removing it from mainstream science. That is why Intelligent Design is trying to close the gap and why people in westernized countries are giving up religion for a secular society, even though most people believe there is a god or accept the possibility.Stephennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-15659115062496149002009-07-17T18:58:27.558-07:002009-07-17T18:58:27.558-07:00Once again, God created things the way they are, e...Once again, God created things the way they are, even in the outer reaches of the universe.<br /><br />Are you a learned scholar in the Hebrew language, or are you just taking somebody elses word for it? God can do anything, is it so hard to believe that he created an old universe? He created Adam a full grown man, not a baby. Is it too hard for you then to understand that it might have pleased Him to create an aged universe?<br /><br />First off I'm not a zealot, I'm a Bible believing Christian, (raised an Atheist growing up believing in Evolution). It's not that I ignore information presented to me, it's just that the information you present is flawed, and I could say the same thing about you that you will never, ever consider that you may be wrong because you don't want to believe in the Bible or in an almighty God.<br /><br />I'm sorry that you are no longer into being a Christian. I understand what you're saying about being into politics more and for that part most Christians are wrong and many even carry around a "holier than thou" attitude which turns non-believers and even believers away.<br /><br />And just for the record, I don't even go to church and am no "particular sect" of Christianity. I read the Bible, I believe it, and I do research and time and again see the Bible proven.JATomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16719219290647523740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-22130426472660519572009-07-17T18:49:07.799-07:002009-07-17T18:49:07.799-07:00And until you can prove Evolution, then there is l...And until you can prove Evolution, then there is literally no such thing as "deevolution". One cannot exist without the other and I stand firm in pointing out again and again that there is not actually one single shred of evidence that Evolution exists. There is evidence of adaptation, but this is not actually to be considered evolution, or even micro evolution since evolution is one species changing into a complete different species so that they cannot and will not propagate (reproduce) together.<br /><br />And once again, I have done much research on the topic. Just because I took your word for it thinking that you just might be knowledgeable about one thing (since you brought the cave fish up in the first place) I did not research them... why? I have a job, a baby, school, and a husband to take care of. (I hardly have time to check my e-mail and as it is now there is a screaming baby in my lap as I type this to you).JATomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16719219290647523740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-22663804987875478122009-07-17T18:49:01.813-07:002009-07-17T18:49:01.813-07:00Stephen: Unfortunately I don't care what the &...Stephen: Unfortunately I don't care what the "experts" theorize. I only care what is in the Bible.<br /><br />I'm well aware that "religion encompasses areas other than the origins of the universe" but for the sake of discussing evolution, this is what were talking about, so what need is there to "inform" me of this?<br /><br />And just how is it laughable? You assume that I have done no research just because I've got a struggling baby in my lap and I didn't want to struggle with her and take the time to type it all out for you. I don't expect you to believe anything I say in any case and figured you would look it up for yourself. For your information the Big Bang Theory cannot be possible because it states that once there was nothing and nothing exploded and created time and everything around us we see today. The laws of physics say that matter cannot be created or destroyed (therefore nothing cannot explode and become something). ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_mass ). The only true opponent to the astrologists is what is actually possible. (By the way, the Bible has always been found to be scientifically correct even when man was still saying things that weren't. I can provide examples if you want. And also, don't lump all Christians in as simply "the church". Catholics were the ones "demonizing science" as well as actual Christians who believed differently than they did... (After all, it is easier for tiny minded people to lump everything into categories of black and white). - your demeaning quote not mine, which you also fit into this category by the way.<br /><br />And what makes you believe that the universe "must have started from nothing" (aka the Big Bang, which is why I brought it up). Show me actual scientific evidence of this. Again I say it is possible that God did it all. And as for another answer to your question about seeing stars so far away, did you know that light is actually slowing down as the universe gets older? Thus making telling time by light unreliable. See this article and do some more research on it for yourself. ( http://www.creationworldview.org/articles_view.asp?id=7 ) You are very flawed in your assumptions towards me that I am a tiny minded person with blind faith who has no knowledge of science whatsoever. I have strong faith yes, but not blind faith. I believe every single word in the Bible because I have also done research and have found the Words found therein true. I see evidence daily of God's existence and find evidence daily in research as to the validity of the things in the Bible, including how scientifically accurate it is.<br /><br />I'm not saying all Evolutionists are athiest, only that they have their own religion. Evolutionists certainly aren't Christians. As a Christian you can't pick and choose what you believe about the Bible... you either take it in whole or not at all or else you are making up your own religion apart from God's Word.<br /><br />For your sake I'll explain: I'm aware that Christians don't agree on everything, and are in fact petty and drive non-believers and potential believers away because of this. I'll also have you know that the ark is already a credible story. 1'st, the Bible never said Noah had to take full grown animals, and second it never said he had to take every breed of every species (such as he didn't have to take every kind of dog). The ark was pretty huge and ANYTHING is possible with God.JATomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16719219290647523740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-89660885340294340402009-07-17T18:30:08.666-07:002009-07-17T18:30:08.666-07:00The age of the universe is explained by an all mig...The age of the universe is explained by an all mighty ageless being creating the universe already highly ordered (high entropy). This corresponds with the creation of adult plants and animals. You should look up entropy and find out the reason we see snapshots of developing (low entropy) galaxies from a billion years ago. <br /><br />Genesis depicts the creation of the universe in only 6 days, this however is a mistranslation of the Hebrew bible by King James's scholars. The original texts refer to ages of creation not days. To god mellinea must seem like minutes or seconds. So is it too hard to believe the universe is much older than humans? Or that god created the universe from nothing in low entropy? Similar to a "Big Bang" or expanding universe theory?<br /> <br />I know zealots like you will never back down or even consider another interpretation of the bible or an alternate explanation for the same events, no matter how much evidence is presented to you. <br /><br />I should know, I used to be one; becoming defensive about what i presumed to be true. I would go to church sometime 2 to 3 nights a week memorizing important verses, and taking notes on sermons since I was born until about 19 or 20. When i realized that christianity has become drowned in hate by zealous preachers and angry congregations more caught up in politics than love and understanding.<br /><br />To that end it is highly unlikely that your particular sect of christianity or even the religion as a whole has it right. Just like evolution doesn't have all the answers. There have been countless theorys for the origin of species ranging from total lunacy to at least very interesting theorys.<br /><br />If you read this far congrats! It took some time reading different articles from doctors, journalist, and theologians alike to present the best explanations from both sides.Stephennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-8347592389667210652009-07-17T17:55:31.580-07:002009-07-17T17:55:31.580-07:00You make too many assumptions and your logic is fl...You make too many assumptions and your logic is flawed. You should really read up on ID and find out what the "expert creationists" theorize. <br /><br />Notice I have no problem classifying one explanation as a theory. Religion encompasses many areas not just the origin of the universe as we know it. <br /><br />Talking about the physics of the universe is just laughable considering you have done no visible research.<br /><br />Astrologists have spent hundreds of years theorizing about the content and structure of the universe, accepting all possibilitys until a presumably better explanation arises. The only opponent being the church demonizing research that is now common knowledge.<br /><br />The universe did not expand into oblivion in 10,000 years, and the universe is no longer expanding. This is proven by measuring our distance from other galaxies like Andromeda. When the universe was expanding it must have started from nothing, then beginning to expand at an inconceivable rate, faster even than light; not allowing the light to catch up until the expansion slowed down. <br /><br />The light that we see from stars and other galaxies are a snapshot from however many light years away from earth they were when the light caught up, some already billions of light years away. <br /><br />I never said anything about the "big bang" theory. It is easier for tiny minded people to lump everything into categories of black and white. After all that is the basis of christianity. <br /><br />Either<br />A. God did it.<br />or<br />B. The devil did it.<br /><br />It seems you also believe anyone that considers evolution to be an atheist. In fact its just the opposite. Real scientist are not trying to disprove the existence of god, that would be impossible, just as it is impossible to disprove the existence of any other god or gods. Atheism IS more like a religion, since they have absolute faith there is no god in any way shape or form. That is not scientific. <br /><br />So for your sake ill explain. ID (intelligent design) proponents do not agree on everything, just like the many factions of christianity that disagree over trivial issues. ID however uses some logic and science instead of blind faith. They agree that in fact many animals devolved after the flood diluting the gene pool. This would make the ark story more credible since there would not need to be millions of species on the ark for almost a year with enough food for a variety of dietary needs, as most of them did not exist yet but devolved from other ancient creatures. <br /><br />Cave fish are a good example of devolution. Their eyes have withered, and light receptors in their brains are very small relative to local fish of the same genus. Once again if you had done even the smallest bit of research you would have realized that i was wrong about these fish having no eyes, i was mistaken. <br /><br />Now according to creationists, these fish simply lost the ability to see thus devolving. The only problem is the many other adaptations these fish developed, such as much larger sent, vibration sensing organs, and control centers in the brain. They also have elongated fins to help minimize vibrations caused by swimming through the water. To me is seems these fish are perfectly adapted for prospering in total darkness, not inferior to surface relatives.Stephennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-88026301284283425582009-07-17T10:40:10.037-07:002009-07-17T10:40:10.037-07:00Stephan: Perhaps God made the creatures to have no...Stephan: Perhaps God made the creatures to have no eyes but have eye sockets. Why did He do it? I haven't the faintest idea, you'll have to ask him. Or possibly He took their eyes away after they were created. Again, why? Don't know, just another question to ask Him when I get there.<br /><br />As far as the stars go, you assume that the universe started with the Big Bang, which is not even possible according to the laws of physics. The Bible says God created the universe, and that he placed all the stars where they are and knows them each by name. Is the universe expanding? Yes. Did God make it to do that? Yes. However he didn't make it start at a single point in space like the Big Bang theory says. Therefore if God created the universe large to begin with and it expanded from there, it is very possible that we can see stars millions of light years away.JATomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16719219290647523740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-71752168538445230402009-07-15T17:49:26.979-07:002009-07-15T17:49:26.979-07:00Sorry for the double posts sometimes my computer i...Sorry for the double posts sometimes my computer is slow.<br /><br />As far as these cave dwelling and other species you are missing the big picture. Eye sockets are evidence that they once had eyes. And if they did how did they lose them?<br /><br />Lastly, please explain to me how we are able to view stars millions of light years away when the universe is only 10,000 years(or less) old.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04548635682317803755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-29450789575983730952009-07-15T17:30:05.512-07:002009-07-15T17:30:05.512-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04548635682317803755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-47434407672969683102009-07-15T17:23:23.375-07:002009-07-15T17:23:23.375-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04548635682317803755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-43380963026309593902009-07-15T13:06:20.031-07:002009-07-15T13:06:20.031-07:00Stephan: I never said we had to have eyes, only th...Stephan: I never said we had to have eyes, only that one eye cannot evolve at a time... all parts of the eye must work in unison and be formed simultaneously to another eye, which can't happen with evolution.<br /><br />I'm well aware what a theory consists of, which is why Evolution can't even be a theory: nobody has actually ever observed evolution... if they had then we could all observe it going on right now.<br /><br />Creationists claim to know how everything came into existence because we have faith and see evidence around us as well. And I never said scientists claim to know everything, I only said they have faith in Evolution, seeing as how they have not one single shred of evidence to support it, thus making it more like a religion than science.JATomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16719219290647523740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-76162333453793030862009-07-14T23:10:50.686-07:002009-07-14T23:10:50.686-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04548635682317803755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-29958373862472177492009-07-14T23:10:42.661-07:002009-07-14T23:10:42.661-07:00I like how you failed to mention cave dwelling and...I like how you failed to mention cave dwelling and deep sea fish and other invertebrates with eye sockets and no eyes. <br /><br />Religion is something polar opposite from theory. Theorys are made by carefully study and observation, they are not always right, in fact they are usually wrong in the begining, but as more data is collected theorys change. That is something that religion does not and can not do.<br /><br />Scientists do not claim to know everything. Only creationist do.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04548635682317803755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-41236352532664545802008-12-19T04:34:00.000-08:002008-12-19T04:34:00.000-08:00Thanks for proving my point... it's a science clas...Thanks for proving my point... it's a science class, not a religion class. If they teach evolution (which I have just stated is a RELIGION) then they should also teach Christianity. It is unfair for children to only hear one side of the story. Now if there was one shred of evidence for Evolution, it would become a scientific theory instead of being a religion, but until then they should either take evolution out of our science classes, or add Christianity in as Christianity is as much science as Evolution is.<BR/><BR/>As it is, no I wouldn't appreciate anybody trying to teach my child about any religion I don't want them to learn, meaning, I don't want her to be taught the religion of EVOLUTION.<BR/><BR/>Thanks so much.<BR/><BR/>-CBSBJATomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16719219290647523740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6944775590944762112.post-63875199067359727502008-12-01T23:34:00.000-08:002008-12-01T23:34:00.000-08:00no, it shouldn't. because it is a science class an...no, it shouldn't. because it is a science class and not a religion class. Based on your idea, the whole semester would be spent going over every single religion's creation myth/story. Do you want your children being taught, say, the Hindu ideas of creation in their science class? or would you rather teach your own children the religion you think best for them at home?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
