How Did Fire Survive Noah's Flood?

[AV1611VET]

I see that you do not understand the constitution,

LOL

You'll get that little play on words in about a week?

 

[AV1611VET]

Which was being sung in the 17th century,

Oh, I see.

Well for the record, we still sing it today in the 21st century.

Are you telling me they don't sing it over there at all?

 

[Subduction Zone]

LOL

I got the rather ignorant play on words. It shows that you have no understanding of the history of the U.S.. You made a rather foolish and ignorant post and now you are trying to obfuscate that fact.

Of course we have Christian traditions over here, I doubt anyone's got any issue with that. It's the crazy YEC indoctrination I would have my daughter avoid.

BTW My daughter is half Chinese which is why I'd have no problem with moving her there.

 

[Jay Follett]

Oh, I see.

Yes but the words don't mean the same, they are just words to a song like all the Christmas carols, they have as much meaning as the song Jingle Bells.

Well, for the record, the UK gave us two things I'm eternally gratefully for:

1. The King James Bible
2. Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Charles Haddon Spurgeon

While he was eating well and preaching his heart out people were suffering and dying in the street outside, God really did love his flock back then, it was a case of too much God and not enough kindness and love, in those days the ordinary person in the UK hated religion and as soon as they got enough power they phased it out until it's like it is today, it's there just for show.

 

[AV1611VET]

While he was eating well and preaching his heart out people were suffering and dying in the street outside,

Oh, please ...

And that was his fault, was it?

No one is saying that; the issue arises from there being evidence of fire in fossil layers many creationists attribute to being laid down by the flood.

There is a lost piece of Scripture describing how Noah created a test ark. It was filled with wood and torched as a burnt offering on the 7th day after the rain stopped. It burnt to the waterline and provided the burnt items found in the geologic record. God also used this as a practice run of multiplying loaves and fish which explains why there is more burnt wood than any ark could possibly hold.

That sounds like something a scientist would do.

No wonder it was lost.

Noah messed up and left that part on the fire ark. Everyone is entitled to one mistake.

Reminds me of scientists who drew up the plans for the Titanic.

They divided 2224 by 20 and came up with 111, then went and built lifeboats that only carried an average of 59.

The under engineering of the life boat capacity was not because of scientists, it was a business decision and because of the time one has to assume a decision made by nominally Christian businessmen.

Right.

And Thalidomide was the fault of big pharmaceuticals, wasn't it?

And L'Aquila was the result of homesteaders too eager to get back to their homes?

Are you sure it wasn't the passengers' fault for not counting the number of lifeboats ahead of time?

Only dosage makes the poison, doesn't it?

 

[keith99]

From the wiki on the Titanic:

The Inquiry also revealed White Star Line wanted fewer boats on the decks, to provide unobstructed views for passengers and give the ship more aesthetics from an exterior view.

A view to die for and no evidence that the engineers (not scientists) made any miscalculation.

Are you telling me that's the explanation the Inquiry found acceptable?

 

[Jay Follett]

Oh, please ...

And that was his fault, was it?

He was part of the system that kept people down by telling them not to worry about their poverty and starvation in this life because they would get their reward in heaven, the people were ignorant and knew no better so yes it was in part his fault.

Religion was used then in the UK just as it's used in America today to frighten gullible people and take their money.

The British pay lip service to religion today and maintain it's traditions for no other reason than it suits them to do it,
religion is even on the radio and TV for an hour on a Sunday.
Someone even had the bright idea for a God channel on a pay per view basis so visiting Americans could get a fix.

They were of the misguided opinion that the ship was unsinkable so silly things like life boats were not needed because it was just seen as a waste of space.
One could even say they were religious in their beliefs and like religious people the thought that they could be wrong never even entered their heads, the very thought would have been preposterous.

I have a feeling England doesn't believe this.

Yup -- probably.
