Ignoring The Evidence : Why Are You Not An Evolutionist?

[AV1611VET]

It's books are silent. It's authors all dead.

You left two words out ...

Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.

Audio books don't even speak.

 

[AV1611VET]

Audio books don't even speak.

Fair enough.

I'll leave you to wonder why I'm not an evolutionist.

Even though I told you.

 

[lewiscalledhimmaster]

Fair enough.

I'll leave you to wonder why I'm not an atheist.

Even though I told you.

That is not the question.

 

[AV1611VET]

That is not the question.

Oops!

Sorry!

Fixt!

(It's hard to tell them apart.)

 

[lewiscalledhimmaster]

Oops!

Sorry!

Fixt!

No harm.
Books whether written or audio do not speak. (except in fairy tales, myths, legends etc.)

The authors of the books of the Bible are all dead.

What sort of stuff do we find in these books ?

Genesis 1:24-31

 

[AV1611VET]

Books whether written or audio do not speak.

Not the One I use.

Mark 4:20 And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

Luke 16:31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

It's a magical book then. Has a mouth, eyes, teeth that bite etc?

The Necronomicon?

 

[AV1611VET]

It's a magical book then.

It's actually a Holy Book.

But I wouldn't expect you to understand that.

 

[AV1611VET]

The Necronomicon?

I wouldn't even call the Necronomicon "magic."

 

[lewiscalledhimmaster]

The Necronomicon?

It's actually a Holy Book.

But I wouldn't expect you to understand that.

We've established it's books do not talk.

It's not a book, it is a collection of books.

It's far too full of blood, guts and gore to be regarded as 'Holy' but it's certainly interesting though it doesn't teach us anything about the topic under discussion.

 

[AV1611VET]

It's far too full of blood, guts and gore to be regarded as 'Holy' ...

Really?

And how are you using 'Holy' in that sentence?

 

[lewiscalledhimmaster]

I wouldn't even call the Necronomicon "magic."

It's a work of fiction, though certainly stirred up enough horrors about it's powers to corrupt. Whatever.

There is no magic in the books, it's all the minds of people who read them.

 

[lewiscalledhimmaster]

Really?

And how are you using 'Holy' in that sentence?

Is it not your belief that God and his books are holy?

 

[AV1611VET]

Assuming your first sentence was about the Necronomicon, I have to ask:

What 'books'?

 

[AV1611VET]

Is it not your belief that God and his books are holy?

Yes ... God and His books are holy.

It's call the Holy Bible for a reason, you know.

 

[lewiscalledhimmaster]

Assuming your first sentence was about the Necronomicon, I have to ask:

What 'books'?

There are no magical books. It's all in the minds of people. Imagination if you will.

 

[lewiscalledhimmaster]

Yes ... God and His books are holy.

It's call the Holy Bible for a reason, you know.

In some countries even hand grenades are holy.

 

[AV1611VET]

There are no magical books.

Okay ... there are no magical books.

Didn't I say the Bible was a Holy Book -- not a magical book?
