Do you want to answer my question, or do you want to just sit and think the Hebrew writers were ignorant, fallible, Bronze Age, goat herders, who tried their best to write what they knew?
Then your point with dad can take a hike.Your questions are basically boiling down to me accepting that the Bible came down from heaven in 1611 so no thanks
lol, I have met one actual theistic evolutionist who accepts day age theology on this site, doubtless there are others but to say that they are the majority is false.
What you cannot support is your idea that there was a significant change in how the universe operates either from the Bible or from Science.
The Bible, among other things, is a book.
I don't really understand your premise that the Bible needs to be believed in order to be studied. .
People use the ability to believe in an impossible religion and are so selective with their belief they can believe one religion while dismissing all the other equally impossible religions as being untrue.
Right and with that total misunderstanding of who Jesus is I'm out.
What constitutes 'no evidence'?Science doesn't ridicule Genesis nor could it ridicule genesis, science has absolutely nothing to say about anything for which there is no evidence.
Coming from the guy making up stuff and not able to support anything (different states).Yes, unbiblical. What want to hang your case on real real long days? ..or what? Ho hum. As I said, you cannot support your spouted dates. They are false.
Well, you could say there will always be cockroaches too. However that does not mean we need to purposely infest schools and just about everywhere we can release some does it? The place for vice and behavior that is unbiblical should be one of a shameful limited, unpublic role. It is one thing to be merciful and compassionate to those who engage in things that are unwholesome biblically, quite another to practice it and parade it on the rooftops. No?Science doesn't ridicule Genesis nor could it ridicule genesis, science has absolutely nothing to say about anything for which there is no evidence.
Present evidence that Genesis is more than just a story and science will rule on it, even then it will not ridicule it it will simply reject or accept the evidence, that's all science ever has done or is ever capable of doing.
Christianity says that God made everything except gays, where they came from is anyones guess, there has always been and will always be gays (men and women) and if God is in charge of everything then God causes more abortions and miscarrages than anything else, but we won't talk about that.
Since a tree doesn not grow in a few weeks under our laws, or light travel across the universe in days, and many other things, what alternative do you have to the conclusion that the nature had to be different? I mean really?Coming from the guy making up stuff and not able to support anything (different states).
No. Plants cannot live eras with no sun. They were made first.My question to these Bible Believers is why, why do theyuse an medieval archaic and erroneous interpretation of Genesis when Science and the Bible agree when read properly.
The 24 hour day does not appear until God creates the Solar Clock to keep earth time.
So the first seven "days"can be understood as the seven Eras which are defined by the ]International Commission on Stratigraphy:
Geologic time scale - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
No. Plants cannot live eras with no sun. They were made first.
Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.The lack of evidence.
So I notice.We do whatever it takes.
Paschal would disagree -- (or can he take a hike)?You have obviously gained the ability to delude yourself.
Perhaps the phrase you are reaching for is 'Absence of evidence is not proof of absence'. Use that, if you are desperate.Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.
Name one animal fossil older than plant fossils? Plants are older. I believe that.I find it interesting how animal fossils are always older than plant fossils though. I also find this passage interesting:
"So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sky and all the wild animals." Genesis 2:20.
Yet, we find wild animals and plants that nobody saw (or named) before all the time.
He means his interpretation does not make sense after younread the Bible, unless you believe his iterpretation before you check it out in the Bible.
This is what these YECS and others are selling.
First you believe their "book report," then you read the Bible and insist it says what it actually does not say.
