How many of you creationists...

Of course he was... if not God, then who made him?

Would I be mistaken if I thought you believe we've lived before in another time?

Was Charles Manson?

He's part of life, is he not?

Same question --- do you think we've lived before?

I don't have a clue. Why?

[AV1611VET]

I don't have a clue. Why?

But there's a possibility, right?

 

[LightSeaker]

But there's a possibility, right?

Honestly...I do not have any idea about what happens after death. Any of that stuff catches absolutely none of my attention. It does not come into play in any of my thoughts, beliefs or even in any reason for my loving my Beloved God. I have left ALL of that after death stuff to God.

If you come along and say that there is a rebirth, I'd respond with OK, that's nice. So what? How does that make God more of a reality today where He is needed the most?

If you say that there is only one life so we better get it right because there's no second chance, I'd respond with OK, that's nice. So what? How does that make God more of a reality today where He is needed the most?

edited to add: Why?

I'll tell you what --- you keep calling it that --- and I'll keep it in mind later when you want me to believe we occupy a specific place on the Taxonomy Tree --- how's that?

You want pinpoint accuracy from us when it comes to science, don't you?

But when the shoe is on the other foot, you can't tell a snake from a dragon, can you?

I said it before, and I'll say it again: we're not Homo sapiens.

And if you think we are --- re-read your own posts slowly.

THe BIBLE says it was a serpent. That is a snake, not a dragon-beast. You connect the verses in Genesis with others and make the interpretation that the snake was Satan, that Satan is Lucifer and that Lucifer was an actual dragon. That is not God's Word, it is yours.

Very much so... I don't believe in reincarnation.

 

[AV1611VET]

THe BIBLE says it was a serpent. That is a snake, not a dragon-beast.

The BIBLE clearly shows this animal as having legs prior to the Fall.

Saying we believe in "talking snakes" is like saying we caught "stuffed [or cooked] turkeys" for Thanksgiving --- [notice the plural].

You guys want pinpoint accuracy from us --- try delivering some yourself.

Your timing is off, you've got the word pluralized, and you're not even using the right version.

Did Adam and Eve really wear fig leafs?

 

[AV1611VET]

Did Adam and Eve really wear fig leafs?

No --- in the first act of bloodshed, God killed [probably] a lamb and made clothing for them.

 

[OldStyleBlues]

Toga style or two piece?

 

[AV1611VET]

Toga style or two piece?

Ya --- make your jokes.

I'm sure you're very entertaining to your friends here.

Then you'll wonder why you don't understand anything beyond Genesis 1 ("God did it").

We'll be glad to keep explaining it over and over though --- that's what we're here for.

I thought they made clothing for themselves?

"And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons." - Genesis 3:7

Oops! You're right! Good catch ---

Whats to understand? As I've already summarized, Christianity is the belief that a cosmic jewish zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you telepathically accept him as your master and symbolically eat his flesh , so that he can remove an evil force from your soul, because a rib-woman was convinced to eat from a magical fruit tree by a talking snake. Very Alice in Wonderlandish ain't it?

Religion is sort of like a lift in your shoes. If it makes you feel better, fine. Just don't ask me to wear your shoes.

If God doesn't exist, then I'm wondering what brings you guys to the shoe store --- and to even target a specific pair.
