Why don't you start looking? It would give a great boost to your Great Commission. I'm sure that if you found all those animals, a lot of atheists - me included - would start reading the Bible with peculiar attention.
that is just it, he doesn't believe it is his job to convince anyone, he leaves that up to god.
apparently he is just there to slap you with a bible and once that is done, you have no excuse but to either believe or go to hell.
he has indicated well enough that it is the case.

Yes, it's either our fault or God's fault. Funny how his kind never consider that they and their poor argumentation might be the weak link in the chain here.

yahweh is a close approximation of YHWH given the lack of vowels, that is generally how linguists think it was pronounced.
I take it Elijah's mom wasn't a linguist then?

The only reason it's 'poor' is because you guys must think you're 'rich'.

Luke 18:25 For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

Ha! I was discussing that in another thread.
I was right. You can find a man that will take it out of context and interpret in in a new way.
Therefore what Jesus said to that rich man few verses before was actually addressed to everyone(if you persistently interpret it for every living person).

Hey AV, when you are going to sell all your possessions and give to the poor?

Say that computer of yous.. will you sell it?

Rich -- Upisoft -- get it?

If 'argumentation' can be poor, can 'argumentation' be rich as well?

Follow the context here; we're not even talking about money, are we?

You are the king of equivocation.
No -- you just don't pay attention to the context, do you?

Go back and read my initial response and see if you understand it now.

I got it. When you will sell your possessions? After all you are 'rich'. See how many post you have. You are spiritually rich man. Some will say you are rich of nonsense... Don't listen to them. Sell all you have. I'm poor.

He has been trying to sell nonsense! But nobody will buy.

Tho the story about water from noahs flood water going to neptune to ward off incoming rogue angels did well in china. Not the way it was intended to but it did get a reaction!

I'm largly unaware of anything happening in China that AV could have been triggered.

Did they find a Christian who sold all his possessions and gave to the poor? That would be a miracle.

You just always seem to take words and interchange the meanings you want, ignoring the original point.

Like:
Jesus: "Nobody rich will make it into heaven!"
AV: "Ah, this chocolate cake is very rich, which means it won't get into heaven."

nope, and neither are you.
there is no j sound in hebrew, which is the language the tanakh was written in, if you have a problem with that, you have a problem with christianity and judaism

also there is no j sound in greek, which is what the NT was written in, if you have a problem with that, then you have a problem with christianity. the fact is, christianity like everything has a history, and you are making the choice to run away from that history instead of embracing it.

one of the pieces of history being that during the course of anglicizing the names in the bible, the greek was rendered with a j because of the translation between greek and english, which seems to be solely a mangling of the greek letter I

i think eliYAH would take issue with you mangling his name.

Is that what I do? slap people with a Bible?
you attempt to, poorly, usually attempting to use a bible verse that has no direct context or meaning to what the argument is over.
at most you believe because words that kind of appear to you to sound good are in the bible they have authority.

so what? jesus is. take your own advice and look at the context, jesus is talking about people who care more about money than other people or their souls.

sheesh, this is what i'm talking about, you think the bible is a weapon to be thrust at people, as if the words will cleave everything, even when you are using it wrong.
