The Time Bubble Theory

"Oh, and you do realize that the beginings of the big bang theory was created by a christian priest, right?"
No I didn't. I knew they should let those poor guys marry! He might've got some bang rather than just dream of some imaginary big one!

Your attempt at humor was lame and borderline offensive.

"But there is no evidence for a young creation"
It all depends on how we interpret the evidences all around us! If we assume God was a liar, well, things start to look deathly old! But they aren't. Then again, some are not as young as they used to be.

The problem is that if you hold on to a literal interpretation of Genesis, God is a liar either way. Once one realizes that the beginning of Genesis was not intended to be taken as a literal description of historical events, this dilemma disappears.

"Why does an old creation make god a liar?"
On the first day, 2nd day, etc. God created everything. Morning and evening were first day..etc. Does the big bang theory say it happened as God's creation 6000 years ago? No.

No He telling the truth.

Hold on to your shorts, and head for the hills if you got a thin skin as well as a thick skull!

"If time were moving faster outside our solar system, all light coming to the solar system would be blue-shifted, bombarding the Earth with very high energy radiation"
Ok, why is that? And secondly who said it was moving faster?

so, if god uses stories to get his point accross he is a liar. Didn't jesus use stories to get his point accross? Hmmm.

Where in the bible does it say the earth is 6000 years old?

"Funny, I think the same thing of organized religion"
Well we'll have to weigh in your thoughts, and set them against the Bible, and God's thoughts, and make some kind of decision.

First, u have to weight the evidence and come to a decision if god even exists, much less has thoughts. You really need to think things thru b4 u post them.

"if god uses stories to get his point accross he is a liar"
No, even the parrables I believe were true stories. The Creation acount was not a 'story' in the sense of a tall 'tale'. It was a specific telling of How He seriously created us, and the universe. The acount also tells us how long it took. What was created when. Just like the flood, an historical acount. So in answer to your if He uses stories, He's a liar-Yes! Absolutely! A filthy sinister liar, like He tells us the devil actually is. He also says the devil was the father of lies.

"The big bang theory helps christianity"
Hey, help like that I don't need! Some crackpot theory that says things exploded for no apparent reason, billions of years ago. And the other dream state theory doesn't sound any better. Phooey! I may have been born at night, but it wasn't last night.
That kind of so called history and so called science can take a hike. I don't consider the amount of Godless nonscense we gobble down to be educational.

1) Some crackpot theory that says things exploded for no apparent reason as opposed to some crackpot theory that there is a all-powerful god who apparently spawned from his own ***.

2) Stop the pathetic and wildly un-funny attempts at humor.

3) I can't even think of anything to say to demean the last two sentences u typed anymore than they demean themselves already.

"come to a decision if god even exists, much less has thoughts"
He has a big book, so He must have some thoughts. 'As the heavens are high above the earth, so are My ways, than your ways' and 'My thoughts than your thoughts'.
Anyhow hope you come to your decision. I already have.

 

[time]

Well, you do yours, baby, I'll do mine. Sounds like you want to post a cross and 'sleep with the enemy'. I don't feel a need to argue with you. Sweet dreams.

Still waiting on all that evidence...

Yeah and Odin has the The Ring of the Nibelung. He must have some thoughts too.
Or is it possible that just cuz something is on paper, it isn't necessarily true?

I've said it b4 and I'll say it again: Just cuz something is written doesn't make it true. Prove to me the Bible is the word of god.

No He telling the truth.

God is telling the truth. The problem is that you are focusing on the literary method He used to convey His message and are confusing it for the message itself.

Genesis 2 is a powerful attack on the Egyptian idea that one could gain immortality through knowledge of moral order. However, by treating it as a literal event, you miss this completely.

The parables were not stories discussing actual events. They were often common stories known to the Isrealites that Jesus altered in order to make his point in a powerful way.

OK, we'll have to agree to disagree. 'Now the just shall walk by faith' Jesus talked of Noah's flood, and Adam and Eve. He talked about how they were all swept away. You think His literary method was off too? Then I suppose we might as well throw out our city that we wait for, that God made, because we are pilgrims and strangers here, and have none. (Heb 11) Then the angels I guess can all fly a kite as well. So we might as well throw out the bible, since it's a bunch of fairy tales. Then what? Give all our money towards building a church?

Well if one doesn't really believe the rest of it, sure, why not, kiss that goodbye as well. The crazy old liar probably never even rose from the dead?

Since the global flood has been falsified,
Either god was lying when he said the flood happend
or
The bible never ment the flood really happend.

Your choice. Just remember, that one of those choices would make a militant atheist very happy, the other would not. Will you side with the atheist? Lets find out.
