That makes absolutely no sense.

It has nothing to do with your budget - I have a similar program on my computer, and I was able to make far superior videos. And I was just talking about comic books.

You simply didn't put any effort into the video. That's the blunt truth of it, I'm sorry. I can tell the difference between a video that was made by someone who has pride in their work, and something someone slapped together in an hour. Yours reeks of the latter.

Besides which, his 'past state' nonsense is conclusively disproven with nothing more complex than simple right-angled trigonometry.....which he well knows...

Stick a fork in yourself dad....you're done.....well done...!

Most atheists on this forum are not agnostic -- in fact, most are openly and aggressively hostile to Christianity.
Even if someone is openly aggressive/hostile towards christianity, they're not necessarily gnostic atheists.

But among:
http://www.christianforums.com/groups/478/
I'll list some whom I've found very respectful:

(I'd also would like to include myself as a respectful atheist)


And I'm under the strong impression that they're agnostic atheists as well (of course, I'll stand corrected should they claim otherwise).


In my experience, gnostic atheism is rare.

By endorsing the myth that science and religion are incompatible, these people do great harm to science. Indeed, in the USA, people like the atheists on this forum have created a situation where the (mostly Christian) population no longer believes anything scientists say, even in the 99.99% of cases where they're right.

Conversely, there are some other people here who carry a "Christian" icon but who do great harm to Christianity (you know who you are).

What seems to unite the two extreme groups is a shared hatred for the "middle ground" -- for scientists who are Christian, for theistic evolutionists, etc. :sigh:
That has nothing to do with whether people are gnostic atheists or not.

Obviously God was still alive and working and the normal nature could be overridden as needed. The issue is what the nature was...not whether God can override it!

But in the days of Genesis it apparently required a complete restructuring of all of the laws of nature, but later on for some reason it didn't...

I was just scanning through the thread when I saw this. What is it with the past tense on God? Do you mean God is dead or gone? Perhaps it was a typo?

I haven't followed the thread content but this definitely caught my eye especially from Dad.

Mate, you seem to have a knowledge deficit about 'agnostic'.....it is NOT a judgement about aggression...it is a statement about 'knowing'....please don't embarrass yourself in making accusations that are poorly grounded....

Indeed, in the USA, people like the atheists on this forum have created a situation where the (mostly Christian) population no longer believes anything scientists say, even in the 99.99% of cases where they're right.

No.....in the select areas of science which conflict with their particular beliefs, SOME Christians have NEVER believed what those scientists have had to say....this situation has nothing to do with vocal atheists; it has everything to do with a fixed, dogmatic view of how they think the world should be....

Conversely, there are some other people here who carry a "Christian" icon but who do great harm to Christianity (you know who you are).

We are well aware that no two Christians can agree on their world view.....it's one of the reasons why there are more than 30,000 different sects that you all belong to....!

Hatred...? Really.....??

Show me ANY scientific theory that even makes mention of your religious fantasies, let alone attempts to disprove them....
Science omits God and creation is all it's same state past belief based claims...rather than mentions them. The methods and conclusions are such that no God could be considered. Inherently evil in other words. Really.

Yes it does. So there.

No doubt I could too. However I wanted to get rolling with the basic idea. Perfection can come later.
You simply didn't put any effort into the video.
It took many hours actually. When the content is considered many many years.

That's the blunt truth of it, I'm sorry. I can tell the difference between a video that was made by someone who has pride in their work, and something someone slapped together in an hour. Yours reeks of the latter.
I avoid pride as much as possible.

Trigonometry actually does not involve time as parallax does. I am not even warmed up yet. When you pretend and assume that time and space and laws exist the same near a star as on earth, that is more like trickonometry

No. God is alive and well. Always was and will be.

Relax. The quote you snipped referred to things God was doing at some point in time. It did not mean He did nothing before or after.

There are thousands upon thousands of shoddily made videos on Youtube espousing all sorts of ideas on Youtube. If you want to reach any significant amount of people, you have to work on presentation.

Better still, hire someone with some talent. However, the truth has long come disguised. Jesus was not born in a 5 star hotel, or palace. Mary was not a supermodel and queen. David defeated Goliath, not with polished swords and state of the art weaponry and training, but with an honest little rock! Adam was not taken from the stars, but from the dirt. Noah never had a world cruise on a luxury liner complete with theaters and pools and late night buffets. Abraham lived in tents, and angels dined there with him. Paul was in prison a lot of the time. Ezekiel never put on his plays in Reno, or Broadway, but near his house. John never wrote the grand finale masterpiece of the bible on the riviera, or at a lakeside resort, but on an island where he was detained. So it has gone through history.

Reminds me of the old joke: God is alive and well and working on a much less ambitious project.
Since the universe was just a weeks work for Him, and we are not told it was the most ambitious week He ever had, the joke falls flat.

The truth is a noble endeavor and always an ambitious project.

Sadness, I'm not on that list, but I guess you don't know me all that well though. :(
