I'm sure you guys are arguing this point just to have something to do.
I feel silly spending this much time trying to refute it.
But for the record, God didn't embed Murphy's Law into His creation.
Interesting.
You're atheists because God...
That makes as much sense as saying I don't believe cars exist because my friend was killed in a traffic accident.
If you sincerely believe this, and you're not just trying to get a rise out of us, then I submit your adherence to Adam and Eve being "children" in the sense of children today is coming back on you and preventing you from fully understanding.I believe the children eating cookies analogy that has been mentioned is spot on.
I'm beginning to think "God does not want robots" is a meaningless slogan, the likes of "Science can take a hike."If that "God does not want robots" that we hear so often is to have any meaning, then, yes, education is more important than obedience.

Suit yourself.In this regard, Adam and Eve were as toddlers, having no clue what was good and what was evil.

Suit yourself.
You want to talk yourself into believing Adam and Eve had a newborn's ignorance of rules, go ahead.
But God is a just God, and I'm sure the punishment fit the crime.

I don't think reducing Adam and Eve to ignoramuses is the way to go here.
God certainly didn't treat them as such.
Thank you, my friend!Hi, AV1611VET! Thank you for your welcome of me into this forum; I appreciate it!
No, I can't think of any thing older; I just meant that I believe it to be only 6,000 years old, as compared to believing it to be billions of years old (as many people believe). No, there is definitely nothing older than that!LOL Well, except God, of course; who never had a beginning!
I love your user name, by the way!

I think they're gone, there are none so blind as those who do not want to see in case it upsets their religious sensibilities.You are of course aware that one can find over 100,000 years of ice in antarctica?

There are a number of problems with this claim of counting 110,000 annual layers, however. Since ice compresses vertically and spreads horizontally with depth, the annual layers thin with depth. The measured variables become confused by the middle of the ice core, and the confusion is especially noticeable in the ice-age portion of the core. The annual layer method works well in the upper part of the core for a few thousand years, but it requires some major assumptions to guide the interpretation of the middle and lower parts of the core. Based on their evolutionary/uniformitarian paradigm, the researchers assume that the ice sheet has been in equilibrium for millions of years.1 Once they make this assumption, they rely on the second and third main methods of measurementglaciological flow models tied to reference horizonsto provide a first guess for the thickness of annual layers.
In contrast to the evolutionary/uniformitarian model, the Creation/Flood ice-age model predicts much thicker annual layers in the lower and middle parts of the ice core, and glaciologists measure subannual or storm layers. It is known that modern storms duplicate with similar amplitude many of the annual layer signatures. If you expect a thicker annual layer deeper in the core, these signatures will show up, while those who believe the evolutionary/uniformitarian model assume that compression and diffusion have wiped out the subannual layers. So, the paradigm determines the age of the ice sheet.

They lie and try to tell us that this hideous affliction known as creationism is not indoctrinated into their children,
who in their right mind would do that to another human being let alone their own? and they have the gall to call it love, that's just plain sick.
I'd post other pictures, but many would be far, far too graphic for this.
You say that the punishment fits the crime? Eating a piece of fruit (Without knowing the consequences.) was criminal enough to warrant 1000s of generations of suffering, war, disease, poverty, death and pain, beyond what A&E could've ever even remotely imagined?
Yeah, that sounds "just".
They didn't even realize they were naked. That seems to fit a child's mentality perfectly.
Not because of God...but sin.
God warned them not to eat it.
Of course it is silly. Put two crackheads in a mansion, put a whole bunch of crack in the garden, and tell them not to smoke it. Then get real mad at them becuase they did.So can you honestly say that it was fair and just to punish all of humanity for the actions of two people? Would you do the same?
