Moon light - the word of God vs falsely so called science

[d taylor]

And an embarrassment to Faith
if taken literally.

Good thing about our existence, we will all get to present our beliefs to God.

Jesus took Genesis literally.

Really? I have seen this claim made quite often, but how has this been established?
Or why is that even relevant?

Just out of curiosity, how much Christian doctrine do you know?

 

[driewerf]

No but the description is so plain God created two great lights to give light to the earth.

Man on the moon:

The shadows are from above on the Moon srurfarce, no light is coming from the Moon's surface.
We can close the thread.

I have been baptised Roman Catholic, but religion was never very important in my family. I sometimes don't even know what is peculiar to
roman catholicism and what is common to all christians. Besides that, I know what you guys tell me.

It's more of having God as a reality in my life than are "beliefs".

Interesting question as I have no idea how God is a doctrine.

You want God to be real to you ... but without beliefs?

Sounds like you want your cake and eat it too.

Then you'll make mistakes when dealing with people who do know their doctrine, won't you?

Jesus took Genesis literally.

Notice this passage, where He takes both Genesis 1 and Genesis 2 literally?

Matthew 19:4 And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female, (Genesis 1:27)
19:5 And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? (Genesis 2:24).

The Cake tastes Divine! Your welcome to try it some time.

 

[AV1611VET]

The Cake tastes Divine! Your welcome to try it some time.

No thank you.

That's the very definition of anarchy.

And I want no part of it.

 

[dlamberth]

No thank you.

That's the very definition of anarchy.

And I want no part of it.

It's LOVE!

Is Love anarchy?
Is seeing the Divine everywhere one looks, anarchy?
With God, one can both taste the Cake and have it at the same time.
It's funny how that works.

It's highly relevant to both derail and post count.

Where is the light reflecting off thje surface of the moon. I mean if this light is going to travel 200,000+ miles to cast shadows on the earth. You would think this reflected light would be visible.

Having God as a reality in your life, what kind of new age philosophy is this.

See those bright spots on the Lunar surface in the image?

That is light from the Sun reflecting off the surface of the Moon and entering the camera lens. It's the same way you can see walls -- light reflected off of it and into your detector (eye).

Catholics differ from Protestants as to the belief in the Real Presence of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. The three leaders of the Protestant reformation had three differing views on the Holy Eucharist. Here is the Catholic understanding:

1324 The Eucharist is "the source and summit of the Christian life."134 "The other sacraments, and indeed all ecclesiastical ministries and works of the apostolate, are bound up with the Eucharist and are oriented toward it. For in the blessed Eucharist is contained the whole spiritual good of the Church, namely Christ himself, our Pasch."135
1325 "The Eucharist is the efficacious sign and sublime cause of that communion in the divine life and that unity of the People of God by which the Church is kept in being. It is the culmination both of God's action sanctifying the world in Christ and of the worship men offer to Christ and through him to the Father in the Holy Spirit."136
1326 Finally, by the Eucharistic celebration we already unite ourselves with the heavenly liturgy and anticipate eternal life, when God will be all in all.137

As a Catholic we deepen our personal relationship with Jesus through prayer and receiving Him in the Holy Eucharist.

Reflected light does not select areas to light up. There would be no dark dark's as is seen in the photo. The astronaut is lit from a single light source. There on his suit, a light area and a shadow area no reflected light area.

That's how shadows work. An object between the light source and the "shadowed" object blocks light from reaching it so there is no scattering.

 

[AV1611VET]

It's funny how that works.

Not really.

It's called "anarchy."

Jesus said ...

Matthew 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

You say ...

It's more of having God as a reality in my life than are "beliefs".

Further, in the name of "love," you argue down those who do have beliefs that go contrary to what atheists tell them.

"Anarchy" is the only word I can think of.

(Actually, I can think of another word, but I'll keep it to myself.)
