You wanted questions on embedded age. I asked my question and you answered it. What more do you want?

Compliance, apparently? :dontcare:...................... the thing is, as a philosopher, "compliance" seems to come and go from my vocabulary.

That's about right.

Throw in a little blasphemy here and there, and you got it pegged.



^_^ -- thanks for making my points.
Once again I find interacting with you to be pointless. Very disappointing.

Well, the Bible doesn't teach it, so no one has to have the weight of believing it.

Yet things older than 6000 years exist.

So what is it the Bible has to teach?

The Bible doesn't teach cars exist either; so are we to have the weight of believing it as well?

He's an Independent Baptist, so it sort of goes with the territory. ;)

The Bible also doesn't teach us how to read ancient Hebrew or Koine Greek either; but there they are, both Testaments standing in all their glory, and that well before King James was born in all of his glory.

That explains the unique beliefs but not the evasive behavior. I'll never understand people who join discussion groups and then refuse to engage in discussions.

Yes and how did God take care of that?

How did He get that ancient Hebrew and Koine Greek into the hands of the common people?

And yet you're doing that very thing here. :rolleyes:

What does the Bible have to teach? That is the eternal question, isn't it?

I could be wrong, but I think the main answer it gives from beginning to end is answering that popular '80s question:

"Who made who...????" :dontcare:

But do you know Independent Baptists? They're not the same as Southern Baptists. They're "Independent" for a very specific reason.

Probably about as strange as a spherical earth comes across to flat earthers.


Sure, except embedded age has no basis in scripture or science and is effectively just made up.
...and makes God out to be a deceiver..

Oh sure, but it still seems weird to me for AV to act so evasive. What's the point in joining a discussion board and acting like that? Bored and just playing games is my guess.

It seems like a case of Poe's law in action. Is he serious or satirically trolling? I'm not sure we can tell the difference when abandoning reason altogether is a mark of pride.
