Or maybe you've forgotten the many times I've said this:

1. Bible says X, science says X = go with X
2. Bible says X, science says Y = go with X
3. Bible says Ø, science says Y = go with Y
4. Bible says Ø, science says Ø = speculate

What if it's something not from science or the Bible?

I'm gonna take a wild guess an say you aren't.

Despite your avatar.

Valhalla only accepts true warriors.

I see -- had enough of judging within your own religion, and you've decided to branch out?

I suppose for some people, using the Bible to tell God Himself what He can do, can't do, must do, and must have done just isn't enough power...

I don't know, but I have the feeling you're not going to get into Valhalla by yakking at me about my beliefs.

I suggest you quit talking and start slinging swords and arrows if you truly believe in Valhalla and want to go there.

Assuming you're even the right lineage.

And by way of contrast, while Odin is selective, Jesus will accept anyone.

Again, mouthing off about other people's religions -- telling them all who is and isn't worthy.

You really get off on the control, don't you? Even having God under your thumb just isn't enough...

I love the fact that Galileo still got it right in the end. Despite all the heliocentricists looking up to him as some sort of hero for the theory he popularised, the irony is he recanted this false belief prior to his death.

Imagine how annoyed evolutionists would be, had Darwin too recanted his evolutionism prior to death. It would be like Einstein admitting relativity was just a scam.
I doubt any would be annoyed, as the theories are unaffected by their developers later thoughts on them.

Then don't say something flippant like this:... as if it has a WELCOME mat out.

I said to Valhalla -- I never said anything about entering it.

And you can get off that I CAN GO ANYWHERE I WANT TO kick.

Some places are just plain off-limits to others -- for a variety of reasons.

I'm going to assume you don't have carte blanche.

Well unless Asgard has been plutoed, you'd better have a spaceship -- or some of that LSD that was made popular by our arts and colleges.
