Thanks. I just don't know how to separate the Life Force of God from this Creation. To separate Christ from Humanity doesn't work for me either.Just love k at Jesus, who is God and created the world, and the separation of creator from creation becomes incredibly obvious.
Shalom.
Missing the point. Breaking the law is sin, unless it's a law that runs counter to God's laws. Why would it be wrong to drive 125 km an hour if the speed limit was 130?Is it a sin or a crime?
In Belgium the speed limit is 120 km/h. In France it is 130 km/h. Is driving 125 km/h a sin? Do you break any divine rule at 125 km/h?
In spite of it. Spring festivals existed long before Easter. Interesting that the English speaking world chose to celebrate a pagan goddess, don't you think?
I'm still trying to understand why you find eternity scary. You really haven't made that point that I've seen.
So the purpose in the afterlife will be 'to live' and 'to reign'?
i) How can 'to live' happen in an afterlife?
and;
ii) 'Reign' over what, exactly?
Why would it be oké to drive at 125 km/h when the speed limit is 120 km/h?Missing the point. Breaking the law is sin, unless it's a law that runs counter to God's laws. Why would it be wrong to drive 125 km an hour if the speed limit was 130?
No, my point is the same as Bungle Bear's: despite your claims to the contrary, most of the Bible was written before Christianity existed.
You mean this?
I'll tell you what.
- 30 October 1991: The Halloween Monster, a.k.a. The Perfect Storm, strikes the U.S. amid the "land-for-peace" Madrid peace talks; President Bush's ocean-side home destroyed.
- 23 August 1992: President Bush moves Madrid talks to U.S. soil; that very day, Hurricane Andrew devastates southern Florida.
- 16 January 1994: President Clinton meets with Syrian President Hafez Assad to discuss more "land for peace" arrangements; less than 24 hours later, a 6.9 earthquake pulverized southern California.
- 1 September 1993: President Clinton announces a meeting with Arafat for the Oslo peace accords, to be held on 13 September; after a week of meandering in the Atlantic Ocean, Hurricane Emily hits North Carolina on that very day.
- 21 January 1998: while waiting to meet with Arafat at the White House, President Clinton's sex scandal breaks out.
- 27 September 1998: Arafat is meeting with the president in Washington; Hurricane Georges hits Alabama and stalls. The hurricane stalls until Arafat leaves and then it dissipates. Parts of Alabama declared a disaster area.
- 17 October 1998: Arafat comes to the Wye Plantation meeting; incredible rains fall on Texas, which cause record flooding. Parts of Texas declared a disaster area.
- 3 September 1999: Secretary of State Albright meets with Arafat in Israel; Hurricane Dennis comes ashore on this very day after weeks of changing course in the Atlantic Ocean.
- 12-26 July 2000: Arafat at the Camp David meetings. Powerful droughts throughout the country. Forest fires explode in West into uncontrollable fires. By the end of August, 7 million acres are burnt.
- 9 November 2000, two days after the presidential election: Arafat meets with President Clinton at the White House to try and salvage the peace process; worst election crisis in over 100 years occurs.
You go settle on your land, then let some of the neighbors come along and say, "I want this plot ... then that plot ... and that plot over there ..."
You call the sheriff, and he comes and says, "Aw ... give them some of your land, if it'll make them happy!"
What would you do?
Jewish holy lawNo I do not understand that "no jew would be buried with coins on their eyes", do you have evidence that what you are saying is correct?
The pages might be good apologetics but is not it is not evidence that can be demonstrated using the scientific method because it is not falsifiable.
You obviously missed this:
The idea of feathered dinosaurs and the theropod origin of birds is being actively promulgated by a cadre of zealous scientists acting in concert with certain editors at Nature and National Geographic who themselves have become outspoken and highly biased proselytizers of the faith. Truth and careful scientific weighing of evidence have been among the first casualties in their program, which is now fast becoming one of the grander scientific hoaxes of our age---the paleontological equivalent of cold fusion. If Sloan's article is not the crescendo of this fantasia, it is difficult to imagine to what heights it can next be taken. But it is certain that when the folly has run its course and has been fully exposed, National Geographic will unfortunately play a prominent but unenviable role in the book that summarizes the whole sorry episode.
That's all I wanted you to say, captain.
You can go on and on and on about how bad the tabloids were, but scientists did their part as well; and it's the scientists, not the tabloids, I'm calling out.
C14 is particularly unreliable due to the degradation of the earths magnetic field.
I would resist, just like the native Palestinians have done.
The problem is that the occupation are not neighbors. They are foreign invaders from across the sea.
And the Palestinians have given up over half of their [bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse][bless and do not curse] state. But the settlers keep taking more.
The person ducking us you. You have been asked to provide evidence supporting historical accuracy of the gospels and empirical evidence of ID. Your response was to link to a gish gallop of PRATTs which did not contain any of the requested evidence. Do you have anything to support your claims, or do you accept you made unsupportable assertions and move on?
The Earth's magnetic field isn't strong enough to alter the decay of *any* nucleus, including Carbon-14.
Who doubts that some person existed? He wasn't named Jesus,
nobody knows when or where he died.
After he died, people were miraculously able to " remember" things he said
and did.
Therefore I should say something I don't believe?
As for Pascal, according to Islam I am at risk of being
hung by my hair in eternal fire as I refuse to cover my
hair in public.
In the event " god" would not be fooled if I say I believe
something when I don't. Maybe Allah could be tricked by
me covering my hair,
El wrongo.
C14 is created high up in the stratosphere and falls to earth where it ends up in the food chain and therefore in plants and animals, and they measure levels of it to obtain an age for a plant or dead animal.
Except the strength of the magnetosphere also degrades, it has a half life too, and the strength of the magnetic field has a direct affect on how much C 14 falls to earth and is absorbed by living things, and thus it can’t be a reliable radiometric dating system - which explains how living animals have been dated at 40,000 years old.
