    Why do people still read the King James Version?

    May I make a suggestion for anyone who is overly worried about the accuracy of the KJV and about the manuscripts used. We, who are not professional scholars, are not and will never be in a position to assess the value or the demerits of the various manuscripts, and so we are forced to depend on...

    Why do people still read the King James Version?

    There are several excellent reasons for using the KJV. 1 You can read it out loud, in services, and it has a ring to it that nothing else can match. 2 It is remarkably dependable, and most of the major concordances are keyed to it. 3 The greatest virtue to me, is that it makes me stop and...

    Natural selection v Intelligent design

    I haven't read that one. But the natural selection one is monumental in its demonstration of the sheer stupidity of the idea (and he presents a large number of examples from the human species to prove it) that natural selection could allow anything to survive for more than one generation. That...

    Natural selection v Intelligent design

    Assertions prove nothing. I have (and so has David Stove) presented the facts governing the case. It's up to you to show us how he could be wrong. We're waiting.....

    Natural selection v Intelligent design

    More nonsense. Darwin hadn't got the brain to see what David Stove is saying. Neither do all these modern evolutionists. You can't see it either, apparently, but let me reiterate: Natural selection, Darwin's pet theory, should, according to Darwin's own admission, 'rigidly weed out' those...

    Natural selection v Intelligent design

    Now let's argue the case on its merits. Stove says that natural selection, which wipes out those incapable of surviving for whatever reason (like weakness, disease etc etc) should, if it was genuinely working, wipe out the females and the young. That is correct and entirely logical...

    Natural selection v Intelligent design

    So all philosophers are stupid, and unable to make any sort of scientific contribution, is that it? Did you know that the letters PhD stand for Doctor of Philosophy? So let's argue the case on its merits rather than intellectual snobbery, shall we? Natural selection is a nonsense, and that is...

    Natural selection v Intelligent design

    The book has already been written, and I have referred to it. It's called Darwinian Fairytales, by prof. David Stove. He should get the Nobel prize. I challenge anybody to refute the argument using whatever logic they care to employ.

    Natural selection v Intelligent design

    Not true. Many writers point out that evolution is at least as faith-based as belief in God. Google it, and you'll see.

    Natural selection v Intelligent design

    I showed above.natural selection is a nonsense. So what's left? Answer: nothing. Granted that there are mutations. But if natural selection is a nonsense, which it is, as shown above, then evolution is also a nonsense, because there is no mechanism left to forward the process. As Holmes...

    Natural selection v Intelligent design

    As Prof. David Stove showed, natural selection is too flawed to be worthy of any consideration. Thus: Theoretically, natural selection rigidly weeds out the weak, those incapable of surviving and other such groups. Therefore, those groups cannot survive if natural selection is working. But...

    Should Ministers get paid???

    Not muzzling the ox does not mean that they should be put into plush stables, Mark. They still ate the grass of the field and were wet with the rains and dew of heaven. Sure, support them while they're working in the area. Jesus says go into their houses - but he meant 'as beggars', not as...

    Should Ministers get paid???

    Excellent stuff. DAT. Nobody seems to ask or care : How much did Jesus get paid for what He did? And I'm still appalled by the hideously unnscriptural practices of building enormously expensive structures to 'worship' in. Have they never read that 'the Most High dwelleth not in temples made...

    Should Ministers get paid???

    Hi Love of truth You have opened a very large can of worms here. I fully agree with your use of scripture to establish the unscripturality of the practice of having paid preachers pastors etc etc. But what about 'priests', bishops, archbishops,cardinals, popes and the whole abominable...
