Do You Believe That There's Life On Other Planets?

[Thomas White]

I only listed a few thing which are getting worse by the day, but there are literally hundreds more. I don't have the time to copy and paste hundreds of statistics, that's why I suggested you do a bit of research when you get the time.
The stats are mind blowing, all the bad things are increasing expediently while the good things are decreasing at an alarming rate.

This tells me that the theory of evolution is dead wrong and the truth is mankind is actually degenerating, into ever deeper depths of depravity just as the Bible predicted.

What's going on now has always been going on. The advent of almost instantaneous global communication just means you know about it now. It seems more because society as a whole is more connected than ever before.

 

[Dan1988]

Even Jesus said to obey the laws of the society you live in. Matthew 22:15 - 22.

Of course there are exceptions, but I'd think making sure your hunting is legal makes sense.

The left winged liberals have been trying to make hunting illegal for many years, they keep lobbying the government to add more animals to the protected list.
They place more value on animal life than human life, they keep adding things like snakes to the protected list. I always shoot the snake first, then have a closer look to see what kind it was.

We hunt on Crown land so we don't need permission from farmers, I've noticed lots of rotting carcasses laying around from other shooter. We find dead Koalas and kangaroos with starving babies in their pouches. At we make sure our animals are dead before we move on, but there's a lot of cowboys out there who just don't give a damn. They shoot anything that moves.

I don't believe that for a minute, I remember looking at some stats which listed a huge increase over the last 50 years in murder, divorce, teen pregnancy, abortion, autism, cancer, drug addiction, STD's, mental health issues and the list just goes on and on.

You should consider the fact that the internet is getting more and more censured every day. They are removing facts at an alarming rate and replacing them with lies.

I don't see how that follows. Many animals are overbreeding and act as invasive species, disturbing ecosystems they weren't originally part of. In those cases, hunting to keep the numbers down is a good solution. Hunting invasive species is actually one way to protect native species that would be otherwise killed and eaten, or have their food supplies stolen.

Where I live, deer are a big problem.

They place more value on animal life than human life, they keep adding things like snakes to the protected list. I always shoot the snake first, then have a closer look to see what kind it was.

Well a snake is potentially dangerous, so unless everyone is expected to be an expert on which snakes are dangerous and which aren't, then erring on the side of caution like that seems like a good idea, especially in a place like Australia.

 

[Dan1988]

So instead of taking the clear meaning of Scripture where it says that God desires that all be saved and that He loves all, you instead find a way to ignore that, brush it aside, or explain it away? That's an interesting hermeneutical choice.

-CryptoLutheran

You accuse me of doing that but you can't show me how and where. I take the whole counsel of God, into consideration when interpreting it's teaching and meaning.

It doesn't help to quote a single chapter of scripture and build a doctrine upon it. The Bible interprets the Bible for us, if we come across scriptures which seem contradictory it means our understanding is lacking and not the Bible. So we refer to all the other scriptures which deal with a certain doctrine and see what they say, then we can see the big picture.

I don't appreciate folks who blatantly deny the Word of God as He spoke it by His Prophets. If God said that He hates Esau while he was still in his mothers womb, then you must embrace Gods hatred of certain people and praise Him for it because everything He does is perfectly righteous.

I like how we've gone from talking about the idea of their being life on other planets... to whatever this ^ is now.

There is life on other planets.

Just not the kind some think.

Not all life is strictly biological.

Them CHNO molecules can only do so much.

Nature is myopic.

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

Nature is myopic.

'Nature is myopic.'

Okay, you're going to have explain that to me since that is big-brain talk.

 

[AV1611VET]

I thought I just did.

Nature can only do so much with her CHNO organic molecules.

She can't make angels.

And angels are on other planets -- including Earth.

Nope.

 

[AV1611VET]

Nope.

Thus nature is myopic. She can only do so much.

 

[Warden_of_the_Storm]

Not really. You just have trouble trying to keep the natural with the natural and the spiritual with the spiritual.
Also, I am pretty sure that I have never once seen anyone say that angel's live on planets outside of some very weird and very suspicious interpretation of the Bible.

OK, I can see you're a 'glass completely empty' kinda guy

What does the theory of evolution tell you that is remotely relevant?

Imagine young people hearing this then people wonder why nobody seems to be that keen on Christianity nowadays.

According to the book of Ezekiel, Lucifer was given employment here on Earth.

And although I don't think Lucifer lived here at the time, he certainly worked here.

We also know from Genesis 6 that angels not only lived here, but married our women and had children.

If you want to call that "very weird and very suspicious interpretation of the Bible," go ahead.

I have a feeling you think Jesus walking on water is a "very weird and very suspicious interpretation of the Bible."

No, the only 'very weird and very suspicious interpretation of the Bible' is when people say we'll find angels in outer space. (Side-eyes LDS...)

That's post hoc ergo propter hoc logic.

If some kind of scientific contraption finds angels in outer space, it's because angels wanted to be found.

Science can't find evidence of two million Jews living in a wilderness, where the book of Numbers in the Bible gives their complete itinerary, from city to city; even saying how long they camped there.

Hey, maybe God swept up all the evidence and hid it away.

You do know Proctor & Gamble redesigned their logo, don't you?
