Nothing that is historically accurate in the Bible proves that God exists. There is no evidence for the claims (as you yourself put it) that Jesus made, you (and all Christians) chose to believe them. There is no archaeological evidence of a single miracle or act of God described in the Bible. There is no evidence for water being turned into wine. No evidence for resurrections.
There are a lot of things in the Iliad (by Homer) that are historically accurate. Does that make Greek mythology the truth? There are just as many historical accuracies in the Bible as there are in the Quran.
So Genesis and evolution do mix?I stand on what I said....Genesis and evolution do not mix.
QV please:
1 Timothy 1:4 Neither give heed to fables and endless genealogies, which minister questions, rather than godly edifying which is in faith: so do.
This is pretty self-explanatory, and notice what company Paul says [prescient] evolution keeps company with?
You are one of several people posting on this subject who fall foul of the very thing you're arguing against.
You say there is no evidence for miracles, the resurrection, the claims of Christ and so on, but you yourself provide nothing of substance to support this claim.
Instead of saying "there is no evidence..." what you need to say "the evidence for the resurrection of Christ can be proven to be false because of........x/y/z".

And for the record, I've been saying that here for six years; so when someone else says it too, okay with you if I give a thumbsup?
Yet so many people turn their back on science and reject the parts of the Bible that Science can verify is true. I can understand people who do not accept the things that science can not verify or test.Nothing that is historically accurate in the Bible proves that God exists.

The problem with your position, mdancin4thelord, is that you make the bible, and thus Christianity fasifiable. If its a case of a literal Genesis or evolution, then you make your whole religion wrong. The fact is the earth is not young, it was not created in 6 literal days and there was no global flood. Your choices are at this point to give up on Christianity or accept the bible as not a literal science text and carry on as you were. Hopefully you will go with the latter.
No, Genesis and evolution do not mix. That is not what you gave the thumbs up for. You gave the thumbs up for someone that is saying that nothing in evolution is remotely near being correct. I've seen you say many other times that you "believe" in micro-evolution, what goes against what the other poster was saying.
You know why do you nonbelievers, pagans...atheists, agnostics....why are you so darn mean? I mean geeze....I get a simple thumbs up....and you have to call him on it? Are you that miserable in your life that you have to nit pick?
I appreciate the thumbs up...we don't have to agree on everything......but when someone makes a point that you agree with there is nothing wrong with acknowledging that statement. This is nothing more than a game to you. I would bet that you have a chart next to your computer and you tabulate graph style what everyone says...and keep track. LOL
Most of you hate believers thats for sure.
I can [unfortunately] take this a step lower, sis.You know why do you nonbelievers, pagans...atheists, agnostics....why are you so darn mean? I mean geeze....I get a simple thumbs up....and you have to call him on it? Are you that miserable in your life that you have to nit pick?

Even when we do agree with these guys, it means nothing to them.
I've agreed with these guys, even against what my own pastor says; and it means not a thing to these guys.
It's not that they don't like us for what we believe; it's that they don't like us for what we are.
This is where I gave the thumbs up:On the contrary AV, it means so much that you agree with me, that when you give the thumbs up to a person saying something that doesn't agree with the one thing that we both agree with (micro-evolution), I call you on it.
I gave that remark a thumbsup; mainly because I have been saying that here for five and a half years now.I stand on what I said....Genesis and evolution do not mix.

Oh, no.My misunderstanding then, I stand corrected. I had the impression that you gave the thumbs up to her entire post, where she says that there is no evolution what so ever. Friends again?

I thought you were paying a little more attention to my posts, because I said repeatedly that I not only respect your beliefs, but also respect who you are. I am not here to convert anybody. Please, don't put words in my mouth. What I don't respect is creationists blatantly misleading people to "prove" evolution wrong. All I see in 100% of the creationist websites out there is lies and misinformation, and that I do not respect, no matter what religion it is coming from.
Blah blah blah.........what is the first cause that got evolution going? I want to know and since this group knows all the information in the universe.......you certainly will have the answer.
What was it....and of course prove it...by the scientific method.
Its the arrogance that is hilarious. None can prove anything...they certainly can't disprove God or address that first cause...yet they think they just have it all. Wouldn't you think they would have exciting, busy lives that would not include making pot shots at God believers on some Christian internet forum? LOL
We make their day Vet......imagine that.
