Their agenda, IMO, is to sterilize as much of the Bible as they can before the Antichrist shows up.Which maybe their real agenda in some cases.
Rom 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, 19 because that which is known about God is evident within them; for God made it evident to them. 20 For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been made, so that they are without excuse.…Their agenda, IMO, is to sterilize as much of the Bible as they can before the Antichrist shows up.
Let's pray they don't.When they go before the Judgement throne of God they will have nothing to say. Their glass alibis will not hold up their airtight alibis will turn out to be not so airtight.
It isn't that the evidence shows otherwise, AV, it is that there was no evidence for God existing. I wouldn't respond "the evidence shows otherwise", I would say "the ancient text that seemed to contradict reality in multiple ways without doing mental gymnastics worthy of an Olympic gold medal, which served as the only basis for your existence, wasn't particularly convincing".Let's pray they don't.
But for those that do, I made up this little scenario, based on Revelation 20:11.
Revelation 20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
GREAT WHITE THRONE SCENARIO
Joe: God says ...
Atheist: Show me.
Joe: Show you what?
Atheist: Show me evidence.
Joe: I don't have any.
Atheist: Too bad then.
[Atheist dies, later stands before God]
God: Why didn't you believe I created the Heavens & Earth?
Atheist: All the evidence shows otherwise.
God: Show Me.
Atheist: Sure, it's right ... um ... well ... it was right here.
God: I'm waiting.
Atheist: It's around here somewhere.
God: Look for it.
Atheist: I'm sorry. I can't seem to find it. It was here a minute ago.
God: Too bad then.
I disagree.It isn't that the evidence shows otherwise, AV, it is that there was no evidence for God existing.
I'll tell you what.PsychoSarah said:And then I go to hell, I guess, and make my new goal of existence kicking the devil where the sun don't shine.
Linnaeus gave none of the evolutionary science you dislike so much. Let the man rest in peace already.I disagree.
Paul said that embracing the science that Linnaeus gave us runs the risk of making atheists, not agnostics, out of us.I'll tell you what.
Let me take you to the local burn unit here and we'll see if the patients on that floor are walking up and down exhibiting that attitude towards how they got there.
That's big talk, Sarah, but the truth of the matter is that you'll be busy doing other things.
And it won't be pretty.
Well, you can be sure Jesus will never break His promises!and boy do I hate lies and broken promises.
Not to be rude or overly hostile, but are you seriously denying the existence of quarks? Multiverses and string theory are pretty speculative and not major aspects of physics outside of theoretical stuff. Quarks are actually visibly detectable, though (in a bubble chamber based on the trails that they leave, but still, these aren't mysterious and unproven particles).
Francis Collins is the leading expert on DNA and He is a Creationist that has written the book on how DNA is the Language of God.

Isaiah 52:6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.I was under the impression that Creationists avoid specifying a god.
I was under the impression that Creationists avoid specifying a god. Does he state which god's language he is referring to?
Indeed AV.Isaiah 52:6 Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I.
A quark has NEVER been observed. Please refrain from making unsubstantiated claims.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quark
"quarks are never directly observed or found in isolation; they can be found only within hadrons, such as baryons (of which protons and neutrons are examples), and mesons. For this reason, much of what is known about quarks has been drawn from observations of the hadrons themselves."
You are absolutely right. Christians don't interpret data simply because THEY DO NOT NEED TO INTERPRET DATA. God told us that he made humans, chickens, and mice all completely different. So there's nothing to interpret. If you would simply believe God, you could do the same. We would need to start re-interpreting the Bible when we discovered that a chimpanzee walked out of the jungles and managed to get a college degree. Jane Goodall, for all her efforts could not achieve this result.We often hear that creationism is just a different interpretation of the evidence. It is my contention that creationists don't interpret the data at all.
So Christianity is about believing in creationism rather than accepting the theory of evolution?GREAT WHITE THRONE SCENARIO

Jesus said:"When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate people on from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, and he will put the sheep at his right hand and the goats on the left. Then the king will say to those at his right hand, 'Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundations of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.' Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry and gave you food, or thirsty and gave you something to drink? And when was it that we saw you a stranger and welcomed you, or naked and gave you clothing? And when was it that we saw you sick or in prison and visited you?' And the king will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.' Then he will say to those at his left hand, 'You that are accursed, depart from me into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not give me clothing, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.' Then they also will answer, 'Lord, when was it that we saw you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and id not take care of you?' Then he will answer them, 'Truly I tell you, just as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.' And these will go away into the eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."
Christianity is about believing in Jesus Christ rather than accepting science as your savior.So Christianity is about believing in creationism rather than accepting the theory of evolution?
There's nothing wrong with science. Contemporary genetics owes to Mendel, a monk, and the Big Bang theory owes to Lamaitre a Catholic priest.Christianity is about believing in Jesus Christ rather than accepting science as your savior.
