Sorry, but he understands far more than you ever could.
Is that why he's using someone else's garbage to make a video?

Doesn't he have enough of his own?

You clearly haven't. You have quite a bit to learn. Why didn't you learn from him when he was a member here?
Were you here when he called me Omphalos, or YEC, or whatever it was I'm not?

Ya ... I learned a lot from him.

I would appreciate it if the believers in the Noah's Ark story would state clearly which version that they believe in, and remember there are many interpretations of the Bible, tell us what you believe and why. What magic (or miracles if you prefer) was used and when did it end? If you do so we can have a meaningful discussion of this non-event.
Discussing this with you can take a hike.

This is between Aron Ra and AV1611VET.

You're the one who is attempting to rub our faces in his garbage ... or his buddy's garbage ... or whatever.

You're just the mail man.

Or am I wrong?

Is your purpose to have Aron do the work, then you take it from there and play his spokesman?

I'm familiar with your [new] style of posting, and I'm not really interested.

It's just a series of potshots, autodenials, and lacks of reading comprehension.

If you want, I'll thread-out.

God performed thousands, if not tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of acts of "magic" in Genesis 1 alone.

Actually he didn't. And that is a red herring

So what is your point?If you don't mind, I'll address Mr. Ra's video, rather than your side issues?[/QUOTE]

Fine, please do so. No nonsense, if you can help it at all. Of course you do look rather silly if every time that you are wrong you try to solve the problem by waving your hands and saying that it was some sort of magic.

That was before my time. And it appears that you do not know the meaning of those words since those are your beliefs.

I should have said, he is responding to Creationist claims rather than what the Bible actually says. For example, the Bible nowhere claims that the post-flood mountains were higher than pre-flood mountains or that new ones arose--as he correctly points out--nor does it at any point unequivocally assert that the entire terrestrial globe was covered with water.

The problem Creationists pose for themselves is to characterize the flood as a sufficient catastrophe to explain the Earth science evidence which would otherwise indicate an ancient Earth. Even a literal interpretation of the text will not bear it.

There was a massive flood in that area about 10,000 years ago. The Euphrates and Tigris flooded so badly that a person in the middle of it would not be able to see the shores. Of course that in no way threatened all human life, much less all life on the land. But stories , like the Noah's Ark tale, often have a bit of actual history in their roots.

Did you watch it all?? I can see that you clearly did not understand it. He used the material the Christians wrote because being a Christian does not mean that one has to deny reality. There are some Christians that do not need bedtime stories to accept Jesus.

This is between Aron Ra and AV1611VET.

Then make your comments on his YouTube page or on the video itself. This is a public thread that I started. By discussing it here you are discussing it with me.

You're the one who is attempting to rub our faces in his garbage ... or his buddy's garbage ... or whatever.

I can see that you are confused again. Those are your beliefs. Not Aron's or mine. We can support ours with valid sources, you can't.

You're just the mail man.

Or am I wrong?

Of course you are wrong. You don't post here unless you are wrong over 90% of the time.

Is your purpose to have Aron do the work, then you take it from there and play his spokesman?

I'm familiar with your [new] style of posting, and I'm not really interested.

Wrong again. I am merely here to help. And you of course have the poor reading comprehension, or did you forget how you misused the Bible against atheists so often? I can help you understand those verses.

If you want, I'll thread-out.

Sounds good to me.

You posted the same mistakes that you made here on his video? This might be highly entertaining.
If you only get one thing from that potty-mouth video, I hope it's this:

That even Aron Ra had to admit that all that water had to come from nowhere.

Well, watching that idiot calling believers stupid idiots was a colossal waste of time.

Now, now, you should not get so upset for having false beliefs. The best thing to do is to correct yourself. It is never too late to learn.

Oh my!!! And you accuse others of poor reading comprehension. There was no water, there was no flood.

And I thought that you were going to post on his video.

The false believes are his, and I am not upset. Just sorry to have wasted my time watching the poor, sad, foolish man calling others stupid, ignorant, idiots. And it can be too late to learn, as you will one day find out, for when you die, you have no more time to learn. I know where I am going after death. And if you continue with your present ideas, we know where you and that poor man will go too, and that is a sad shame.

Wrong again. Your beliefs are demonstrably false. I can see that you did not understand that video. You know that your beliefs are false. That is why you stooped so low, and broke the rules here, by calling a fellow member of the forum an idiot.

The good news is that ignorance can be cured by education. What variation of the flood myth do you believe in? And don't worry, you and I are going to the exact same place when we die. Those empty threats of yours are clearly against the rules here too.

Please do not bear false witness---I called no member of the Christian Forum an idiot---You yourself said this guy is a former member. If He is still a member, then he is the one breaking the rules for he has called every single member of this forum a stupid idiot. I have made no threat either. I said we know where you are going if you do not change, how is that a threat? No one here can send anyone anywhere. We will go where God sends us. Ignorance can be cured by education, he called us all stupid, there is no cure for stupid so he has bad mouthed every believer. I do not believe in any myths. I believe in the word of God and you will never be able to prove it wrong to me---never.
God is love---and like love, it can only be experienced. You can talk about it all you want, deny it, say it isn't real, but unless you experience it, it will never be real to you.

Whoa, I may have made one mistake. He used to be an active member. He is no longer active. He may technically still be a member. And that means you would still be guilty. Where did he say that specific members here were stupid idiots? The fact that those that believe in the Noah's Ark myth have a stupid belief does not necessarily make them stupid Where and when in the video did he say what you have accused him of saying? It looks like you are the one that may be bearing false witness here.

I have made no threat either. I said we know where you are going if you do not change, how is that a threat?

It is both an empty threat and not true besides. Remember, where I go, you go.

No one here can send anyone anywhere. We will go where God sends us.

Sorry, but your version of God almost certainly does not exist. Therefore he can't send us anywhere. And you dishonestly tried to threaten me with your version of God. Don't do that. I am sure that is against the rules. Besides, you seemed to forget that you are going where I am going.

Ignorance can be cured by education, he called us all stupid, there is no cure for stupid so he has bad mouthed every believer. I do not believe in any myths. I believe in the word of God and you will never be able to prove it wrong to me---never.

Again, where did he call you stupid? And please, don't call the Bible the "word of God" that is an extremely blasphemous belief for a Christian. The Bible has been shown to be wrong many times.
God is love---and like love, it can only be experienced. You can talk about it all you want, deny it, say it isn't real, but unless you experience it, it will never be real to you.

I hear the same stuff from Muslims. If you have no evidence then there is no rational reason to believe in your version of "God".

And please. No more rants. If you want to discuss the video, let's do that. Don't give me any false claims. Do you understand why the worldwide flood never happened? A yes or no would be a good start.
