I wonder if there are any tales in the Bible of unborn babies being slaughtered?  Perhaps even mandated by God? [/B]

I'm really hoping to see a fundamentalist jump in and explain that it's not really murder to kill unborn babies, when they're in heathens.

Who Daniel pray to? God! (Daniel 6:10)

Who save Daniel in the lion pit? God angel. (Dan 6:22-23)

Daniel trusted in God.

Away with you, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.' - Matt 4:10

Perhaps your getting your Bible stories mixed up. Moses never killed anyone.

Exodus 2:11-12 And it came to pass in those days, when Moses was grown, that he went out unto his brethren, and looked on their burdens: and he spied an Egyptian smiting an Hebrew, one of his brethren. And he looked this way and that way, and when he saw that there was no man, he slew the Egyptian, and hid him in the sand.

Or do Egyptians not count as people?

It's like he just came out of a 9 year coma.

I have to admit, that was kind of awesome to see not only that it wasn't AV, but who did it. And yet....

You see... I do not care. But if you need me to pick.

Show me what a horse used to be. It started as goop. Walk me through its evolution. Show me the links.

Horses? Okay.

The first animals that we would call horses lived about 10 million years ago. You can read about the evolution of these early horses to modern forms here.

They are members of the odd-toed ungulateswhich have members in three groups today, as described below:

ORDER PERISSODACTYLA
Suborder Hippomorpha
Family Equidae: horses and allies, seven species in one genus
Wild horse, Equus ferus
Przewalski's Horse, Equus ferus przewalskii
Domestic horse, Equus ferus caballus
African Wild Ass Equus africanus
Domesticated Ass (Donkey) Equus africanus asinus
Onager or Asiatic Ass, Equus hemionus
Kiang or Tibetan Wild Ass, Equus kiang
Plains Zebra, Equus quagga
Mountain Zebra, Equus zebra
Cape Mountain Zebra, Equus zebra zebra
Hartmann's Mountain Zebra, Equus zebra hartmannae
Grevy's Zebra, Equus grevyi
Suborder Ceratomorpha
Family Tapiridae: tapirs, four species in one genus
Brazilian Tapir, Tapirus terrestris
Mountain Tapir, Tapirus pinchaque
Baird's Tapir, Tapirus bairdii
Malayan Tapir, Tapirus indicus
Family Rhinocerotidae: rhinoceroses, five species in four genera
Black Rhinoceros, Diceros bicornis
White Rhinoceros, Ceratotherium simum
Indian Rhinoceros, Rhinoceros unicornis
Javan Rhinoceros, Rhinoceros sondaicus
Sumatran Rhinoceros, Dicerorhinus sumatrensis

The odd toed ungulates evolved from earlier groups, as you can see in the diagram about halfway down this page. They stem from a group of placental mammals called the Laurasiatheres, which in turn evolved from a group called Eutheria, which is the name given to the all placental mammals.

You can see a diagram of how mammals in general evolved from earlier groups here.

Therapsids themselves evolved from the Sphenacodonts, which include the well-known Dimetrodon.

Before then, the lineage can trace its line through reptiles, amphibians and fish, then through earlier invertebrate life forms before its origin at the dawn of life.

Where in Genesis does it say HOW god accomplished all the developments of the creation?

Why is it so hard to assume god used his Natural Laws even in an evolutionary process???




1) It is clear that the Universe DID have a beginning, 13.9 billion years ago.
(Gen 1:1)
2) The hot spinning molten matter that was to coalesce into the planet Earth was without form:
3) There were seven long Cosmic "days" since that Big Bang, which we call the seven cosmic/geological Eras.
4) A Cosmic Dark Age did precede that advent of let there be light to flood the cosmos.
(Gen 1:3-5)
5) There was one ocean, once, where all the waters had been collected together.
(Gen 1:9)
6) Pangea/Rodinia did actually confirm that the dry land appeared surrounded totally by water.
(Gen 1:10
7) The Plant kingdom did establish itself before the Animal kingdom.
(Gen 1:11)
8) The Sun and the Moon and all the Stars were "MADE," given authority over circadian Earth Time as soon as life appeared:
9) Man WAS the last step in the evolution of Dominant Life on earth.
(Gen 1:27)
10) Man HAS managed to form a mental IMAGE of "Father Nature" by understanding of His Laws and creation.
11) Gen 5:2 says god called them, the man and his wife, the "Adamites," a species:
Gen 5:2 Male and female created he THEM; and blessed THEM, and called THEIR name Adam, in the day when THEY were created.
