How many creationists practise what they preach?

When it comes to God's word, you know the rules..

Because some posters have been noted over a long period of time for being unwilling to rationally discuss Scripture you are blocked from being able to discuss God's word. While there may be places to vent contempt for Scripture and/or Christians who believe Scripture, and blasphemy etc .. this is not one of those places. Thank you. Happy repenting...
But those aren't the rules and you are the one that keeps making rather blasphemous claims. I don't think that you can find one of mine. For example you keep making the base charge against your God that the Bible is the "word of God" with all of its failed prophesies, bad science, and worse morals you just said more bad things about your God by claiming that than most atheists ever do.

I think Jesus addressed that..

For the folks teaching the modern theory of evolution and the big bang...

Mt 18:6 -But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
More blasphemy. Implying that your God would take vengeance on someone for telling the truth. The fact that the truth offends you is your fault, not the fault of others and surely it will not be avenged.

Not only do some offend the bodies but even worse the spirits and faith of little ones. Better to be as the verse says. Really. Literally.

Which source? the source you were shown or the source others were shown? how do I decide which is the right one to choose if all I have is the biased words of believers?
People say that God performs miracles, how do they know which God performed those miracle?
There is only One God who has accurately told the future.

Why, you have no authority to tell anyone that and since you are constantly blaspheming it would apply to you and not to me. I do not make such denigrating charges against God.

Sorry, but no one is going to avenge the fact that you humiliate yourself. That is a very evil belief of what God will do for you. It is blasphemous to say the least.

Save your talk about God or the bible for somewhere else.

Save your false charges for somewhere else. You don't have to respond if you don't want to. I am simply pointing out your obvious errors. The fact that you are humiliated by your errors is not my fault and will not be avenged by anyone.

Since you are blocked by discussing "God's word" by your obvious contempt of it why do you keep doing so?

It's obviously my fault, I am doing something wrong, I think I'm asking questions but I'm obviously not because you do not see a question when you read my post, perhaps if I wrote in bold would that help? anyway here goes..........

Because those same people teach kids that there was no real creation, therefore no real actual Personal God.
That is not even remotely true. For one thing, it is just as illegal to teach people in public schools that there aren't any gods as it is to preach for a specific religion... in countries that value freedom of religion. Additionally, if you are referring to the United States, plenty of states don't have evolution on their required curricula. More importantly, evolution, when it is taught, is presented to students in middle school. Indoctrination doesn't work on children that old, so any kid taught to be creationist since they were 4 years old is unlikely to change their mind from 2 weeks in their 8th grade science class.

What you should be more concerned about is the college environment; this year was the first time I had an instructor that not only brought up Creationism, but also flat out called it garbage. I am 21 years old, and this is the first time in my life that I have ever heard that in a classroom. I am 21 years old; if I was a creationist fully indoctrinated since childhood, I would have to have pretty darn weak faith to be shaken by this point. That, or a very open mind.

I also have to bring up that the majority of Christians support evolution while also believing in a personal god, so your issue in that regard is based in fallacy. In fact, even if you didn't believe that a deity created anything, you could still believe in a personal god. A personal god is not a creator by definition, but rather a deity that is specified, no more, no less.

I agree that Wikipedia can be a beginning source to lead to deeper knowledge. My 17-year-old grandson in high school uses it sometimes as a starter. I think Encyclopaedia Britannica online is a better resource.

I do read links to resources because I'm a researcher with a PhD in dissertation-only research in the British university system. I probably am in the minority but please be assured that I pursue research (if I have the time).

Good, then I look forward to debates with you. But, I do ask that you be patient with other people on here. Years of mind numbingly frustrating debates have made a lot of people on here restrained when it comes to providing sources for their claims. It is going to take a while for people to recognize that you are not a waste of their time. However, the kinder you are, and doing some research of your own and presenting it, will both help a lot in that regard. The best kind of debate is the kind where the opposition sincerely thanks you for it.

Whining is your specialty. I am here to help. Why do you keep committing the sin that you have banned yourself from doing?
