Jason, Christians have been claiming that they were in the last days

ever since Christianity began. Your ignorance of history betrays you and

gives you the foolish idea that only recently have these 'signs' been

fulfilled. Once again I have to wonder if you are really a Christian.

We have a different point of view related to this subject. I have read

some of quotations from the Quran and found out that there are MAJOR

differences between the Koran and the Bible. Here is just one example:

 

From the Quran:

Fight and slay the Pagans wherever you find them, and seize them,

beleaguer them, and lie in wait for them in every strategem (of war).

Surah 9:5

 

"...cutting off of hands and feet...." Surah 5:33

 

Needless to say, you will not find words like that in the New Testament.

 

Jesus said, "Love your neighbor as yourself". Jesus never taught his

followers to cut off the hands and feet of pagans or to slay pagans.

To do what? You didn't have a meaningful antecedent.

 

I know that the advocates of creation science refuse to learn science or

admit the facts that they know about, so you cannot possibly be saying

that they are willing to look at the scientific evidence.

I once knew someone that had such a book. He loved to discuss various

scriptures that he found in that book.

Ask the ICR, CRS and AIG.

 

The ICR tells us that they won't let something as silly as facts get in

the way of their teaching of doctrine: <http://icr.org/home/faq/> and

scroll down a bit.

So you believe someone who is telling you a nearly unbelievable story

without any actual evidence just because she is pretty and tells you

that she is a Christian.

 

You make Christians look bad.

Some of the prophecies related to the last days did not come true until

the past 10 to 20 years. Here is one of them:

2 Tim 4:3-5

 

For the time will come when [Christians] will not endure sound doctrine;

but after their own lusts shall heap to themselves teachers [and

preachers]. Those [preachers] will teach them not what the truth is but

instead what they want to hear

 

My comment: That prophecy has come true in my life time. There is one

church in California called Unity Fellowship. The preachers are more like

psychologists than real preachers. There is a television show that is

broadcast on Sunday morning called the "Hour of Power". The preacher never

discusses Bible doctrines. He teaches messages related to psychology and

sociology. I have never heard him preach messages from the Bible.

The advocates of abiogenesis should do the same thing. Some of the

advocates of abiogenesis know the difference between speculation and

evidence. However, it became apparent to me from reading various posts

that some of the advocates of abiogenesis do NOT know the difference

between speculation and evidence. One person stated something like this:

 

"We now have living cells so it is logical to conclude that they evolved

naturally".

 

That is NOT evidence--it's speculation.

 

Extra-ordinary claims need extra-ordinary evidence--it's not present in

regard to abiogenesis.

 

There are at least two other possibilities about how living cells came to be:

intelligent design and ancient astronauts.

Yes--that scripture also explains it.

What organization or person provides the paperwork and keeps records

related to the signed pledges? I'll email them and ask them about it.

You doubt a lot of things that are true, Jason. And believe a lot of

things that aren't.

The ICR for one. The Discovery Institute for another.

If you don't care to read 'such a book',then you have no authority to argue

with others when it comes to your bible. Don't be ignorant all of your life,

do something about it!

I have read your new leader is a friend of America--is that true?

The article that I read indicated that various Mullahs are encouraging

various followers to move to Spain. After Muslims become the majority of

the population, they will vote in Muslim politicians that will eventually

establish Spain as a Muslim country and establish the same sorts of laws

that they now have in Iran.

Do you know anything about that subject?

I have no desire to read such a book. A book written by Tom Clancy would

be more interesting to me. Someone suggested that I read a book related to

Quantum Physics--that made me laugh. I barely passed the college math 101

class.

Are you actually concerned about this? In what source did this article

appear? What political agenda does the author have?

First, I don't agree that Muslims and Christians worship the same God.

There are vast differences between the Christian religion and the Muslim

Religion.

 

I don't have the proof that you are asking about. A belief in God is based

on faith. It's difficult to explain faith. I will try to explain it like

this: I read an article in a magazine indicating that they located a

planet in deep space that was similar to the earth. That astronomer stated

that he believed there were hundreds of similar planets in the solar

system. For the sake of discussion, lets say that we were able to demand

EVIDENCE about those hundreds of planets. He would probably say, "I don't

have the evidence". He has "faith" that those planets exist. Just because

I have no evidence that God exists, I am certain that God exists. When I

heard a testimony from Cheryl Prewitt--that was evidence for God's

existence for me. However, I can easily understand why atheists would not

believe her testimony since they don't believe in God.

That's nice. Got any evidence showing God exists? No? Then there's no

reason to take your belief seriously - completely apart from your lies and

your respect of known liars.

I'm sure you'll demonstrate that there was such a process, right? Oh, no,

Actually you have, but, like a typical theist type, you simply ignore

reality whenever it's convenient.

Whereas you have seen evidence that God exists, and evidence he created

life, right? If not, then you're simply dishonest in even mentioning lack

of evidence of abiogenesis as having any bearing. Of course, if you do

have such evidence of God, I'm sure you'll trot it out. Oh, whoops, you

forgot that part again.

Once again demonstrating your fundamental cluelessness. Reality is not

defined by counting noses. I do wish you would learn that lesson, if no

other.

And of course, you have scientists who have proved, in a lab, that God

exists and also every step of the creation process he used. Oh, no, you

don't, but you believe that. Funny. you believe that with no evidence

whatsoever, yet you reject science unless it meets a standard it doesn't

even try to meet itself. That would be called dishonesty, Jason,

demanding ridiculous standards on one side and none at all on the other.
