I will, thank you very much. Your worst nightmare will be when you awaken to Judgment for the deeds done while in the flesh. Good luck.

Every Human (descendant of Adam) has a free choice because they have inherited Adam's superior intelligence which is like God's. Gen 3:22 Of course, with much knowledge is much responsibility, unlike an innocent animal's lower intelligence level, which comes with No judgment. Amen?

are you suggesting Christmas is not a Christian festival ?

Click to expand...

I'm not suggesting it I'm stating it as a fact, Dec 25th was the birth date of at least 3 or 4 gods before the Christian god,
Dec 25th is the Winter Solstice and a Pagan holiday long before the Christians claimed it.

Chrishna, of India, born on December 25, 3228 BC, his mother was a virgin, mother’s name was Maia. The name Chrishna means Black or Dark. His uncle, Kamsa, the ruler at the time of his birth sought to kill him (Chrishna) because he had heard a Prophecy that Chrishna would overthrow him. Chrishna escaped death by being smuggled out of the area to safety (sounds like Herod and Jesus does it not?). [COMMENT: Crishna’s story and Jesus’ story fit together like a hand and a glove.]

Mithra, of Persia, born on December 25, before 1500 BC, his birth was witnessed by Shepherds that brought gifts to honor him. He was styled as a Mediator between God and Man. Witness this quote from the Encyclopedia Encarta, “Mithraism was similar to Christianity in many respects, for example, in the ideals of humility and brotherly love, baptism, the rite of communion, the use of holy water, the adoration of the shepherds at Mithra’s birth, the adoption of Sundays and of December 25 (Mithra’s birthday) as holy days, and the belief in the immortality of the soul, the last judgment, and the resurrection. Mithraism differed from Christianity in the exclusion of women from its ceremonies and in its willingness to compromise with polytheism. The similarities, however, made possible the easy conversion of its followers to Christian doctrine” (“Mithraism,” Microsoft (R) Encarta. Copyright (c) 1994 Microsoft Corporation. Copyright (c) 1994 Funk & Wagnall’s Corporation).

Horus, of Egypt, born on December 25, before 2500 BC. His mother, Isis, gave birth to him in the swamp, she was warned by the god Thoth, to flee and conceal the child from the evil Set. Set had killed the father of Horus, whose name was Osiris, and sought to kill Horus, |also. Isis was able to keep Horus hidden from Set, till he (Horus) grew to manhood. Horus sought to avenge the murder of his Father, and made war against Set, and defeated him.

Buddha, of India, born on December 25, 563 BC, his mother’s name was Maya she was a virgin. He was immaculately conceived, and at birth, he announced that he was a savior to the world. His birth was announced by a star. At his birth, he was visited by Wise Men who declared that they had seen Signs of his birth, that is to say, signs of the royal birth (coincidence?). [COMMENT: On the surface, it definitely looks like a coincidence. But when one considers how much of the Buddha’s teaching Jesus claimed as his own, it becomes clear that the whole Buddha story was appropriated my Jesus himself — or at least by his church.]

Encarta? LOL!!

While I'm not a fan of the Dec 25th birth of Christ, this Mithra claim was debunked long ago. You've just found a website with unsupported claims and blindly copied and pasted the blind claims. There's no supportable teaching that Mithra was born on Dec 25th.

Are you kidding me?

Have you ever heard the expression:

If you can't go in person, go in purse?

And didn't Jesus tell us ...

Luke 14:23 And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.

And in these last days, wouldn't the "highways" also include the Information highway?

Not trying to be funny here, but you could be mistaken for a double agent. I think your effect here at CF may not have the effect you think it does.

I highly doubt that Jesus (almost put Jesse for some reason) meant to give your money to a website.
And can I also counter your Bible quote with one of my own:
LUKE 18:22 Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

I wonder if AV1611VET would have the strength of character to stop posting for a month just to see what difference his absence would make? perhaps not, he would be devastated if he saw that no one even noticed he had stopped posting.

repost from page 10 that was conveniently buried and forgotten.

at the risk of being called uncool again,
is this the sum total of transitional "feet fossils" ?

is this ^ not a fully formed human foot ?
obviously your links state that one bone suggests the possibility it belonged to a transitional being,
when it simply fits the human structure.
this must strike you as strange.

any other "feet fossils" for us to look at ?

Does Homo Naledi count as transitional?

Even if you are 100% right how does that help creationism? it's doesn't help it one little bit because creationism still has no more than any other religion which is nothing, zilch, zero, nada.

That's rich, coming from someone who has more sockpuppets than I can make posts in ten seconds.

if you remember the claim surrounded Lucy and her "feet" (missing from the skeleton),
and that "feet fossils" of Australopithecus prove transition (you may have to go back into the thread for details).


im asking for the other fossils,
or is it just this....

that foot looks human to me.

I provided a link discussing 'feet fossils' - Homo Naledi. What do you think about these?
