So my higher self is one of my filters because it is my intuition, my better judgment, and it enables me to contact the divine for guidance. Like prayer or meditation.
You and I have a very different idea of what the soul is.
Don't bother, Isis. AV can't even understand simple concepts. He'll never understand the deeper aspects of Spirit.

You know all about this mystery writer, do you?
I'm not surprised, seeing as how you guys act like you know everything I ever said or didn't say.

Nope. Nothing like that at all.
We have the actual handwritten works and notes of Darwin. This is not the case with Liviticus, is it? Unless you can prove otherwise, I do expect you to make a retraction. |

Actually, Darwin used to take Genesis literally, just like almost everyone else at that time.
It wasn't until he made his observations that he started to question it, ultimately leading to the conclusion that it's all bullsmeg. I'm not surprised, seeing as how you guys act like you know everything I ever said or didn't say.
99% of what you did say is 1, 2, 3, 4, -- 900, 910, 902, 903, 904 --- 3000, 3001, 3002, etc. |

Thank you for making my point.
You say it wasn't Moses --- it was Moses.
I said it wasn't Darwin --- it was Darwin

But until that I assert that science has never examined an angel, nor its ear, so it cannot make any statements about that. It can though make statements about things it has examined, in this case the bones of humans and mammals ears, their similarities and their effects on hearing, as well as the diverences and the consequences of such of non-mammals.
So can we chalk that up as another thread successfully derailed by AV?

Did Moses sign it, and leave behind other signatures to compare it to? I said it wasn't Darwin --- it was Darwin
Darwin did sign it, and Darwin left behind other signatures to compare it to. |

You never will, either --- I promise you.
Let me ask you this though:
Do you think a scientist has ever entertained an angel, and didn't know it?
(In your opinion?)

Funny, I can't remember the last time a scientist dissected the Invisible Pink Unicorn, either. Or took a X-Ray of Cthulhu, or studied the anatomy of the Flying Spaghetti Monster. |

He didn't need one. Originally Posted by John 3:33 He that hath received his testimony hath set to his seal that God is true.
God is smarter than to go by signatures, knowing someone who is a master forger.
