Taking questions on the Creation

[AV1611VET]

Due to some misunderstandings with where I stand on the Creation Event, I'm going to bring this subject up again.

If you have any questions concerning the Creation Event, I'll be happy to try and answer them to the best of my ability.

If God can do anything, can he create a stone so heavy that not even God can lift it?

Why should we ask you when we can read it for ourselves? or do you make things up and add them to the story for other creationists to believe?

I noticed your post count, are you an invalid?

GOD DID IT - CASE CLOSED? that tells me you have shut your brain down, will that please God?

 

[rockaction]

When did God create the King James Version? Was it always around? What did people do before modern English was invented?

Yes he can! The angels had to roll his tomb stone away for him, and Jesus was fully God.

I bet Thor could have rolled away his own stone.

I think you'll have to ask God that question...

I got one, why would it matter to Christianity the way in which God created life, and the universe?

Also, I believe that you are an embedded age creationist, (correct me if I'm wrong). So, is there anything that scientists could discover that would make you believe that the world is not 6000years old?

 

[Agonaces of Susa]

I bet Thor could have rolled away his own stone.

Considering Thor is the planet Jupiter I won't take the other side of that bet.

LOL, If Thor existed, I might have to agree with you.

Surprisingly though Jesus doesn't have any more evidence of existence than Thor.

Oh how I love unsupported statements.

where are the links to historical evidence of Thor?

 

[Agonaces of Susa]

I love how people try to deny the existence of Jupiter.

Bible doesn't count

neither do forged historical accounts

Why doesn't the Bible count? It does after all contain multiple accounts of the same guy doing the same things, under the same circumstances, they all back one another up quite well.

Forged? Was Josephus not a first century Jewish historian? Who said:

Now there was about this time Jesus, a wise man, if it be lawful to call him a man, for he was a doer of wonderful works, a teacher of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over to him both many of the Jews, and many of the Gentiles. He was the Christ, and when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal men among us, had condemned him to the cross, those that loved him at the first did not forsake him; for he appeared to them alive again the third day; as the divine prophets had foretold these and ten thousand other wonderful things concerning him. And the tribe of Christians so named from him are not extinct at this day.
​

Jewish Antiquities 18.3.3

and

But the younger Ananus who, as we said, received the high priesthood, was of a bold disposition and exceptionally daring; he followed the party of the Sadducees, who are severe in judgment above all the Jews, as we have already shown. As therefore Ananus was of such a disposition, he thought he had now a good opportunity, as Festus was now dead, and Albinus was still on the road; so he assembled a council of judges, and brought before it the brother of Jesus the so-called Christ, whose name was James, together with some others, and having accused them as lawbreakers, he delivered them over to be stoned.

I love it when creationists rely on fallacies like this to make their point. Keep doing what your doing and let the rest of us know how fringe you guys are.

Maybe because all the writers knew the prophecies that were intended to be met and knew of the other writers.

Jewish Antiquities 20.9.1

Yes these probably are forgries, especially the first passage which was almost certainly added or at least highly embellished by a later Christian translator. Josephus was an orthodox jew and would not have referred to Jesus as the Christ.
