bio-engineering; synthetic DNA, that replicates - a bit scarey - Page 4

Show me some dinosaurs that the great Noah saved in the loving Gods big flood. You know the flood that killed everything.

Anyone ever almost drown? It is not a nice way to die but a God decided to kill everyone by drowning them when he could have just snapped his fingers and killed who he wanted. Strange thing this murder by God thing.

Something so simple made so hard by the believers. SMH.

Coming back for a moment to that question of whether the bible

is "true, inerrant, infallible, ineffable", does anyone else find it

interesting that the quotations offered to explain the xtian line are

all about the "word" of god - i.e. NONE of them refer to the:

book / written  word / equate god's instructions with any documentary

source (even Moses' tablets of stone)/ identify the bible AS the "word

of god" ...?

Not exactly sure of yr point there hund??

I do wonder why the bible was pieced together from copies of copies over hundreds of years and subject to various committee's. aprovals.

Why was it written by soany people reflecting bronze age language and technology.


why didn't god just wavd his finger and make the whole thing just appear at the time of creation.


you have to make so many excuses for your brain to be able to believe it was written by an omniscient omnipotent all good creator of the universe. it just maked more sense to assume it was just made up by people.

Excuse my spelling, fat fingers small phone.

It was just that  ggturner  offered those bible quotes as evidence that the

bible is/was the 'word of god', when actually they are only 'evidence'

that 'god said' , @ some point,  you (we) had to follow his instructions.

IF 'he' wrote the bible, would he not have pointed its existence out, at

the time ?

 

I know you grasp, Pete, that the books of the bible were drafted at different

times, by different writers, and in different languages ...  but still the New

Earthers say they have to 'believe' every word of their bible is true, and is the

word of their god.  Implication being nobody should argue about that.  I suppose

their only way out of that claim is to accept that their god either just 'magicked'

the book into existence at some point, or somehow commissioned men to write

bits at the appropriate moments in history.

And both of those 'possibilities' open up whole new questions / cans of worms,

don't they ?  But virtually every issue argued in this thred - and so many others -

hinges on the question of what the bible IS, and how much Truth it contains.

 

Anyone whose faith is based solely upon words on a page, whether that page be the Bible or not, proceeds according to a mere idea, usually someone else's.

Vk4:  no, I do not think science is a big conspiracy.  I just wanted to know what you would think if hundreds of scientists doubted the theory of evolution.  After all, science is about observations and facts.  What if hundreds of legitimate scientists doubted the evidence of evolution?  

Hundmutter:  the Bible is the "word of God."   They are one and the same.   

I think ggturner should host a discussion on the statistical chances of abiogenesis having resulted in life.

Spontaneuos generation  abiogenesis .....what a laughable theory.   I leave it to a couple experts
