Is that where you go to shelter yourself from Christianity?
The zoo is your church, isn't it?

No, just a day at the (human) zoo.
It depends. That kind of questions was meaningful in the framework of scholasticism. But is since recently a little bit out of fashion.Tell me, are you one of those who joke about angels dancing on the head of a pin?

Recently being the last 800 years or so.
If a fallen angel can make scratch marks on a rock, can it make scratch marks on the paper on which your Bible was written? If so, then even if the original copy was perfect, you might actually be reading the scratch marks of fallen angels.A fallen angel could have scratched his name with one of those overnight.

If the "a billion angels did it" hypothesis is correct, who would ever know what else those angels did?
Angels can make craters on planets but they can't make scratch marks on paper? How do you know that?No.
I can't reply to this w/o violating the rules.
Have you seen the craters on the moon? the earth? elsewhere?

Obviously you are just making this stuff up.
There is no way you would know that what you just said was true.
If angels made scratch marks on your copy of the Bible, then, even if the original copy was perfect, you might actually be reading the scratch marks of fallen angels.
That is obviously true. What rule would you be violating if you responded?
You continue to posit angels that arrange the fossils in the rocks, but refuse to allow that those same angels might have made changes in manuscripts. Why not? Angels that are powerful enough to move rocks can move ink on the paper. If angels can plant trillions of fossils in the ground, complete with imprints of embedded raindrops, animal burrows, nests, and footprints, and if all of this can look so realistic that science is fooled into thinking that all of this is real, how can you then posit that those angels are too weak to move ink on a manuscript?If by scratch marks, you mean errors in God's translation sequence ("noise on the line"), then NO.
Angels cannot make "scratch marks" on the KJB.

Show me just one post where I even hinted angels did that.

Your myopic equipment can't even tell you what The Bloop is on the ocean floor. Myopic equipment sees still more than blind faith.www.christianforums.com

Flood Geology
I am not sure why, "Jesus walking on water" gets "in the way of science". There are all manner of creatures that walk on water, including humanity. Most of the times it simply involves surface tension, and displacement. During a raging storm?www.christianforums.com
First I believe in a young earth but have no problem with accepting it could be an old earthIt's the physical structure of the earth itself with plate tectonics, the types of rocks formed by melting, cooling, eroding, deforming and such, mountain building process and the list goes on that tell the story of a very old earth.
I'm fine, thanks. And you?Are you okay?
I go with an Old Earth because that's what the Earth, (God's Creation) is showing us. God can't lie, so neither can the Earth as it is of God.But if one is believing in an Old Earth based on a law of uniformity that all things that have taken place have been the way they've always done so that can be a rubber ruler you're using.
God can't lie, so neither can the Earth as it is of God.
Yes, we can lie. But Our soul is of God and it can not lie.Are we "of God" too?
If so, can we lie?
Yes, we can lie. But Our soul is of God and it can not lie.
No. But it is a creation of God.The earth doesn't have a soul.
I'm thinking of the blessings from God that I experience as I hold my completely innocent new born grand-children. Maybe for the record I should instead not do that as they are sinners?And for the record:
Ezekiel 18:20a The soul that sinneth, it shall die.
No. But it is a creation of God.

We're hitting on one of the main reasons for why I reject Christian beliefs.
