  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Um ... God ceased after the sixth day.
Genesis 2:2 said:
And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
No he rested, not quit.
Or was that day longer than the other 6 days ?

Though why did God need Rest, was the work hard for Him ?

Not only that, you are not talking to a kindergarten kid now that will accept things just because you wish or claim them to be true. That is the nature of the beast.

Yes, your glass is filled with Biblical "literalism", and there is no room left in it for any information derived from Creation, itself.

And just 6 verses later we see him back at work

7And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.


So I guess creation wasn't finished.

I won't discuss the Creation Week from outside Genesis 1.

Genesis 1 is good enough to serve as a final argument against evolution.

Didn't know you believed in creation itself!? Or that you had information about it!! Met anyone that actually believed you yet?

Yet, God's own Creation is showing us that the creating process IS ongoing and clearly will never be finished.
Did God create Hurricane Katrina?

Hurricane Katrina is the result of weather patterns around the globe. Events like Katrina are a part of the whole that make up Creation. The beautiful flowers in a mountain meadow are another example.
Mamma mia --- have a good day, LS --- nice talking to you --- :wave:

ETA: Let me try one more angle.

Did God create those weather patters, LS?

How would you answer that question?


Edited to add: I don't know what your getting at by your question. Could you please clearify?

But if this is where your going, the way I see it (and what Creation itself shows us), weather patterns are a part of this Creation. This Creation itself creates weather patterns.

Like Creation, weather patterns change as time goes by. They are effected by things like changes in the geology of the earth, changes in oceans size and temperature, the sun and polar ice will effect weather patterns, and more...all sorts of things effect weather patterns. Even human beings effect weather patterns.
