Well, that's rhetorical nonsense.

care to continue trying to destroy someone else's faith? Bc that seems to be what most atheists are trying to do for some odd strange reason.

would you like to see the sudden riddance of spirituality on earth? seems like you do.

Red herring. Can you stay on the topic of Creationism and Evolution?

You talkin' to me? I'm not trying to destroy anything. I'm just looking a good reason that God exists.

the bible doesn't lie, its just very nonspecific and mysterious
The "person" who supposedly wrote the Bible was God. Or at least, people directly inspired by God. How could God make a mistake about how large the world was? f what you say is true, then God is not all-knowing.

And if you say that the people made a mistranslation........well.........that's a HUGE mistranslation.

You can hide behind lines like that, but history tells a story of a religion that tried to rid the world of all other spiritual thought besides their own, with their crusades, burning of witches and druids, and denying reason to the extant of burning down Alexandria's library depriving us of such much knowledge and plunging us into the dark ages.

so when you say "care to continue trying to destroy someone else's faith?" I must laugh and cry at the irony.

Care to continue trying to destroy America's scientific education? Because that seems to be what most creationists are trying to do for some odd strange reason.

Would you like to see the sudden riddance of rationality, knowledge, and common sense on Earth? It seems like you do.

And no, I don't want to get rid of all spirituality on Earth. Just the stuff that damages our growth as a species, and slows our learning about this universe.

well, perhaps one's idea of God isn't always the same from person to person.
