And as shown above, "level" means equal heights, and height is in reference to the centre of the earth.“Water seeks its own level.” This is a universal principle which is applicable to water everywhere.
Nope. It was written by Jews to Jews. Is the command to stone adulterers also written to you? Or do you cherrypick?
And as shown above, "level" means equal heights, and height is in reference to the centre of the earth.
That you incorrectly assume "level" means "flat".So what are you trying to say here ?
It doesn't, because it is not a science textbook.It does, it tells me where the two great lights are & the stars, it tells me how the earth is unmovable & so much more.......
I do not know what text exactly they saw. If they even knew there are different texts.
I am not sure if I understand the question. How is the uncertainty what the text is supposed to be not a problem?
I do not know what text exactly they saw. If they even knew there are different texts. I think we have more sources than they did, thats why our situation is more complicated and our dogmas less dogmatic.
Do you have the NETS translation? You can check for example here: https://ccat.sas.upenn.edu/nets/edition/40-daniel-nets.pdf
The two versions they included in their print are so different that they basically had to have the whole book of Daniel translated twice.
what is it anchored to?
That you incorrectly assume "level" means "flat".
In the below photo at Lake Pontchartrain, all the pylons are the same height and are running in a straight line. They are all "level" yet they curve down in the distance because of the curvature of the earth.
The little kink near the end is caused by atmospheric refraction, causing the pylons to appear higher than they are.
The shrinking in size is due to perspective, but the downward curve is due to the earth being a sphere. If you draw straight lines along the base of the first few towers and the tops of the same, the vanishing point is above the horizon, not on the horizon as you would expect if the earth was flat.I'll answer this later, but for now it's due to perspective.
That's wrong.Nothing, it could be that the entire universe is the earth, that's right,
Foundations, pillars etc. are always built on something else. You can't read "pillars" and "foundations" as literal and then immediately turn around and interpret their base as figurative.Nothing
That's wrong.
Hogwash. That's your dualist "evil god" claptrap again. That is in no way Christian.Satan counterfeits everything that God has made even us humans.
Everything following "God created" is simply untrue.God created a level unmovable earth with the sun, moon & all the stars set in the firmament which rotates daily.
Satan isn't an evil god, or any other kind of "god". He's a creature, i.e., a created being. God made him, and he exists at God's sufferance, i.e., for as long as God is willing to put up with him. Satan can't create anything, he can only befoul, or try to, things that God has created.Satan has created the dead opposite.
RubbishHe does because he can & he has done this before, first with Eratosthenes & then with Copernicus which he succeeded with.
And you don't understan what a theory is.What people do not realize is that Copernicus only theorized his finding.
Still sticks you to the ground, doesn't it?Yes gravity is a theory
Why is that, do you suppose?, when it comes to gravity it's better to look at the density of an item when it either falls or rises
That's a shame., but the earth together with the moon orbiting the sun is an all out lie, I can't & I wont ever believe this nonsense.
