So you don't want to answer my question?
I don't care to go all through Genesis 1 and explain what was created ex nihilo and what was created ex materia.

I will, however, do one each for you.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

The earth was created ex nihilo.

Genesis 1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

Birds were created ex materia.

I'm sure you do.
Just not atheists.
Yes I'm sure you can give rhemes of evidence supporting the existance of atheists. But I believe you are all fake any way.
So you are suggesting I'm lieing to everyone (including myself)?

You got questions?

I got answers.

Oh, DO you? Excellent!

...or of reality.

Can we be clear that you only have guesses? That indeed, even if you rely on the Bible itself we are looking only at your interpretation of the Bible?

Will you add the caveat that you might be in error?

Why the and/or? Aren't impossible and improbable mutually exclusive?


Not at all.

Well, not *really;* impossibility is a human limit, but not one that is universal. Infinities exist even if we can't perceive them.

= flaming

If you can't see the point i`m making ..say so.

The scriptures are truth. They state that all creation declares God.
So if in the face of all evidence they say they don't believe God exists. Then they 1 .do so by willful choice 2. Lie
Because if the scripture is true. And it is.then atheists lie... Or God lies.
And we know God cannot lie.
Do the math.

By me saying I don't believe an atheist exists.. And that I believe they are fake.
I'm making the point that any one “choose” to disbelieve anything regardless of obvious evidence.

Your flamming accusation was in haste to say the least.

Indeed is it a choice to believe something.

Atheists are fake?

That is a curious position to take.

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

The earth was created ex nihilo.

Where does it specify that God created the heavens and the earth from nothing?

Genesis 1:20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
Birds were created ex materia.

Yeah, that's fine. In the context of Gen 1, I'm happy to agree to that.
