A nihilist who cares.
Science and myth dont go hand in hand.
This is (as usual) a useless "challange".
You should really learn what a myth entails and what it means.

The cosmic evolution model of the universe consists of seven progressive steps, from the Big Bang to today.
Here is Harvard's interpretation of the seven progressive steps:
Put each act of creation in Genesis 1, from the earth on the first day to Eve on the sixth day, into their corresponding progressive steps.
- Particulate
- Galactic
- Stellar
- Planetary
- Chemical
- Biological
- Cultural
And you should learn how reading comprehension exercises work.You should really learn what a myth entails and what it means.
And you should learn how reading comprehension exercises work.
Here's a very easy reading comprehension exercise:
Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall.
What did Humpty Dumpty sit on?
Are you going to tell me you can't answer this because you don't believe Humpty Dumpty was real?
- a wall
- a chair
Then may I offer you a bit of advice?Yes, in physical reality (i.e. science) Humpty Dumpty didnt sit on a wall.
Myth, legend, truth, old wives' tale, urban legend, cartoon, figment of one's imagination, parable, reading comprehension test, challenge ... take your pick.VirOptimus said:But that is not my point, and if you understood the concept of myth you would understand.
Then may I offer you a bit of advice?
Don't take science to reading comprehension class and attempt to use it, or you'll fail -- and deservedly so.
Science can take a hike in reading comprehension class.Myth, legend, truth, old wives' tale, urban legend, cartoon, figment of one's imagination, parable, reading comprehension test, challenge ... take your pick.
But whatever you call it, please answer it.
No one's asking you to believe it -- just answer it.
Oh, I think I can come up with one or two points my church would understand.Your "challange" is pointless.

I consider my apple challenge thread and my raisin bread challenge thread to be the two best points I've ever made here.Then maybe you should make your "points" there instead?
I consider my apple challenge thread and my raisin bread challenge thread to be the two best points I've ever made here.
I even combined them HERE
Notice how the intellectuals treated those points as well?
Was it? First, I thought that the Stone, Bronze and Iron ages were divisions of the time before the existence of written historical records, whereas the Bible itself is a written record and therefore must come after these prehistoric time divisions.But mostly it's called a bronze age writing because most of the OT was written during the bronze age.
True. But the traditional--and the Creationist--view is that the first five books, including the Garden story, were written by Moses, which would put it mid 2nd millennium. In any case, the Garden story is thought to be much older than the final, post-exilic redaction.Second, as I understand it, the whole of the Old Testament was written during the 1st millennium BC, whereas the Bronze Age ended before 1100 BC. Therefore the Bible is an Iron-Age document rather than a Bronze-Age one.
That is telling more about you than about the quality of these threads.I consider my apple challenge thread and my raisin bread challenge thread to be the two best points I've ever made here.
All good, I hope!That is telling more about you than about the quality of these threads.
Uuhm...All good, I hope!
I don´t even see how they are points.Can you think of any two points better than those?
I don't think atoms are alive.Question: At what point are the atoms alive since they (atoms) remain unchanged and are the same whether they are part of a rock or part of you?
So centipedes, snails, dandelions, grapevines, bacteria , and jellyfish all have souls too?I don't think atoms are alive.
I think life is a gestalt.
In other words, their wholes are greater than the sum of their parts.
This is why God breathed into us the breath of life and we became gestalts having more than just bodies, but souls and spirits as well.
I doubt it.So centipedes, snails, dandelions, grapevines, bacteria , and jellyfish all have souls too?
I think the usual way goes along these lines:The cosmic evolution model of the universe consists of seven progressive steps, from the Big Bang to today.
