    There are easier things on their website to disagree with :) eg. People are inherently good. It equates us to Jesus as it says there is a spark of divinity in us like there was in him. It describes Jesus as only a master teacher. Which makes no sense because of who he claimed to be. If he was a...

    And you are too quick to quote the Bible at me. I'm not quarrelling, I'm debating how to interpret the Bible. Do you do that quote for everybody who you disagree with to try to shut down debate? Are you not quarrelling with me as well if so? A debate of ideas is not quarrelling. Not that he...

    Of course I won't take it in a bad way! Yes a meteor can look like a star but it says star, otherwise it would say meteor so it is incorrect, literally speaking. That is, if someone reads it literally. But if you don't read it literally then it's fine. Once someone recognises that they have...

    I don't think science will ever explain what came before the big bang. I like that. While it's entirely possible we have a young earth and God faked all the evidence to the contrary, I don't see why he would bother as he wouldn't care about having to wait :) Again it comes back to how you...

    Sorry was that for me? What is morphing?

    I'm not sure if that was sarcasm or not? If so you have been very presumptuous and rude, and misquoted me by shortening what I wrote. All I said is that it isn't important to me if the curtain was literally torn or not, not that the symbolism of the event isn't critically important, and...

    Lol. You certainly lucked out with your new president :) Its impossible to have a perfect government because its made out of people and people aren't perfect (except for your new best ever president who is in his own opinion, just "the best") :) I suspect God wouldn't care much about the form...

    Quote: Agreed! Quote: Yes it could have been done either way, I just think but why bother faking something if you can just do it for real :) Regarding your question, I can go either way it doesn't seem very important to me whether this is metaphor or literal it still conveys the meaning...

    You don't understand what you quoted. It is a disparagement of rybka's silly explanation... Wow. I'm not going with a scientists interpretation, it is my own. And you are claiming that your interpretation is God's interpretation which is getting weird and very dangerous for you. Like I've been...

    Yes Those are Jesus's words I'm referring to, where he says to cut off your hands or put out your eye if they cause you to sin, not OT style justice. Yet of course we don't take them literally because we consider what was truly meant, who he was speaking to, the cultural context etc. My point...

    That is just a matter of time. What you are saying is you believe wind can erode rock but can't change its shape. Common ancesters between species shows new species can evolve. To answer your question, I believe God created the universe and everything in it. I just don't believe it happened in...

    I don't disagree about being amazingly omnipotent but that doesn't really answer my question. Your comment about scientists only seeking an answer they want does not appear to be true in the general case and also doesn't answer my question. Scientists will formulate a hypothesis which they...

    Genuine question. Reading the discussion about water etc, I don't understand why some people read a non scientific document and try to derive scientific meaning from it? The creation story doesn't read as a literal scientific text to me, which doesn't remove it's ultimate meaning which is that...
