to some, life is black and white; theres right, then theres wrong. theres up, theres down.

to others, nothings as simple as right and wrong.

Well, that's rhetorical nonsense.

care to continue trying to destroy someone else's faith? Bc that seems to be what most atheists are trying to do for some odd strange reason.

would you like to see the sudden riddance of spirituality on earth? seems like you do.

Red herring. Can you stay on the topic of Creationism and Evolution?

You talkin' to me? I'm not trying to destroy anything. I'm just looking a good reason that God exists.

well, to the people that wrote the Bible, their small corner of the world WAS the world. since we didn't have great methods of transportation back then, the entire world was jammed into a small microcosm.

their understanding of the world was simply the area they knew. they didn't know the world was much, much larger.

the bible doesn't lie, its just very nonspecific and mysterious

The "person" who supposedly wrote the Bible was God. Or at least, people directly inspired by God. How could God make a mistake about how large the world was? f what you say is true, then God is not all-knowing.

And if you say that the people made a mistranslation........well.........that's a HUGE mistranslation.

You can hide behind lines like that, but history tells a story of a religion that tried to rid the world of all other spiritual thought besides their own, with their crusades, burning of witches and druids, and denying reason to the extant of burning down Alexandria's library depriving us of such much knowledge and plunging us into the dark ages.

so when you say "care to continue trying to destroy someone else's faith?" I must laugh and cry at the irony.

Care to continue trying to destroy America's scientific education? Because that seems to be what most creationists are trying to do for some odd strange reason.

Would you like to see the sudden riddance of rationality, knowledge, and common sense on Earth? It seems like you do.

And no, I don't want to get rid of all spirituality on Earth. Just the stuff that damages our growth as a species, and slows our learning about this universe. :wave:

omggggg some of you Creationists are seriously arguing that it only takes a few thousand years for all the different ethnicities to adapt and look the way they do? LAUGHABLE. Take a anthropology course please.

Fixed it for you. Please keep in mind which subforum this is.

Humans are naturally light. Adam and Eve were light. Ham was cursed, so he had a loss in information and became dark, and so did his children.

So dark skin is punishment? So you're going to go up to lets say, a black person, and tell them their skin is a curse?

Never mind the actual anthropological evidence that dismantles your argument....

Genesis 9:24-25 said:
When Noah awoke from his wine and found out what his youngest son had done to him, he said,
"Cursed be Canaan!
The lowest of slaves
will he be to his brothers."

Quoting scripture doesn't help you or make it true.....are you seriously denying established anthropological evidence for "curses"?
Anthropology? Not even a science.


All right, I've had too much fun Poeing (is that a word?) you guys. I didn't think it'd be this easy, considering the TE in my profile.
