'cannot not be' means 'you are' also part of one of them, if you die at least you get a reason other than because Adam did. It doesn't matter, just checking to make sure yo know you are a member of one of them.

Cliffy;1681315]Evolution involves a conscious effort. The biosphere, of which we are but a tiny part, is the source of life on this planet. As it evolved, it became more and more complex. It became aware long before humans even began their evolution. Are we the only species that is self aware in this biosphere. I don't know, but it has been suggested that, because of the ratio between brain mass and body mass, whales and porpoises could also be self aware. To me, they re smarter than we are because they don't fret, are not as anxious or wonder why so much. They just eat, mate up to 50 times a day and play all the time, which leads me to believe they may be more evolved than we are.

Lets debate argue get into a fight. The biosphere does not exist without the sun, the biosphere is not its own source, in other words we do not exist in a closed system. I agree about the whales, recent work records dolphins self recognition in mirrors.

It duzen't. It is just the commonly held belief that humans came out of Africa. I personally think our presence happened quite differently.
Leaky got lucky in the rift, there are human remains scattered all over the globe. we've been here and there for a very long time.

A giant ball of burning gasses.

The temperature gives the lie to burning gas, it's ionized, therefore plasma. therefore electrically conductive.

Thankyou for the discussion, please continue.

The serpent in the garden is the example of being believed and until the flood happened they were the kings of the earth and there are enough references to show that they are supernatural as far as we are concerned but they are as weak as we are when it comes to God's ability to move physical things around, but never without saying what will happen first. The Bible start out with, ... God said, ..... an it was so. A two step operation that has a start and an end, literally. The Bible is full of examples and one of the first is the two bruises verse in Ge:3:15. The way it actually works out that all the people given names an places are a record of how they and the ones in the 4 Gospels and until Acts 10 is a complete story of how the bruise to the heel was 'said' and then 'done'. That also means having the ability to let the verses tell the story before they 'get modified to the correct version'. The mythology version was at least started by the end of the exile into Babylon. > For myself going with anything other than a flat-out literal version is a sure road to an improper understanding,< some 40 Scribes but the prophecies they wrote about came from one single mind so all are needed before any can be properly understood. Nor does it take long. Da:7 comes with a vision and an explanation. Are you going to try and promote the explanation is a vision rather than a reference to literal 'things'? The same can be said for the same thing but in Re:17 with the dragon and the harlot. The iron in Da:7 and the dragon the very same being rather than two different ones, selective viewing that comes from seeing the same event from a slightly different perspective. For the references in the OT for 'day of the lord' you are looking at slightly more than 20. Same event but from the view of the 20 different groups that will be there to see the events become real. Know that really big block of stone in Lebanon, think of 10 being an armful. We would measure each one as being 50 million horses just so they cannot be anything but supernatural, in prophecy and against out best armies it will be total surrender within 1 literal hour. God puts that sort of detail in to stop readers from being deceived. Much of the world that have heard of God do not know a deception comes before the gathering. The best part of that is it shows that only somebody who knew all the details to the end of Re:22 could give a verse like Ge:3:15 and have all the words in a big book cover the details of just those two events, with the exception of just the last 3 chapters that when read with just the first 3 chapters is the pamphlet version of the Bible. Men could never foresee that sort of little detail, or not so little if you are looking for proof of God.

Proof of God is easy. We think therefore we are god.

It is of course very tedious to address your offering point by point. I will offer a couple of brief selection contrasting your superstitious material with real theology far closer to the origins of Christianity and universal religion itself.

And how does the Serpent of Life tempt man to incarnate? Through the proffered gift of the juice of the fruit of the Tree of Life and Knowledge held in the hand of the Woman. Here again is a symbolic rock over which theology has stumbled most outrageously and been tossed into next to loutish stupidity. And all because it was not known that Jehovah, as feminine, represented the natural forces into which the soul is represented as being lured, as a bit of poetic imagery. Now for the first time it becomes clear why these Jehovah powers, non-sentient, non-intelligent, purely material energies, balk at forming man as a spiritual being, and refuse to sanction his drinking of the juice of the fruit of the forbidden Tree which the Woman, physical life, holds out to lure him. The reason is obvious and clear. They could not! They could not endow man with the intellectual faculties or capacities which they themselves did not possess! Their recalcitrancy in undertaking to frame spiritual man is unmistakably shown by their statement of disincliNew Lectures on the Ancient Wisdom--No 7.

> For myself going with anything other than a flat-out literal version is a sure road to an improper understanding,<

All scripture was written to prevent those students who could not penetrate the allegory and real meaning of myth from enlightenment and to protect the ancient science from defilement by swine who could only trample the pearls underfoot. At the surface of scripture there is the incredable fantasy only applied esoteric meaning reveals the hidden sweet meats of ancient science and philosophy. Everyone of the early christian church fathers knew this and published it. The veil between the literal reading and the esoteric was a very clever safety device that preserved the wisdom in the hands of the truly enlightened.

The Lost Key to the Scriptures At least read that essay and you'll see what I'm on about. You're smart you should be able to figure it out.

You know most of the stories, would fresh water fish in the Dead Sea be something you would take as proof that God is a literal being? Just as Eze:47 promotes.

Explain the mythical meaning of salt remaining in the marshes, Using a tide program how much higher would the water have to be raised before fresh water fish could live there and if they could would that level create a river to the Med Sea. Wouldn't that be wierd?? The flow rate of the river that fills it can be CSI'd.
A large horse and man combined have about 50ytrs of blood, how wide is the river when length is known and depth to bridle is 4 or 5 ft, what width would it be and if it starts at Jerusalem how far could it reach?

Enoch gives 2 miles tall as being the height of the angels that are intergalactic beings, if 4 bound together make 200M horses and something that would cover that combined area (8 sq mi) would that be enough space and power to travel between galaxies? How about 2 mi and 50M horses for travel between stars. Could NASA build a terra former with a cargo hold that big? How long to the nearest start using the 50M and the 200M numbers?

@Cliffy. I don't know where my reply went but just to say that rather than Karma I was thinking about the equal and opposite reaction people give to our actions.
.

@DL "Yes. Eden is a myth that Christians have used in the literal way to denigrate and discriminate against women and gays from day one without just cause. If God is walking and talking to all those Christians, one would wonder why he has not corrected them?
Regards
DL

Best not to judge then DL!

That would serve the religious forces of evil well as they judge women and gays inferior and subject them to unjust discrimination.

Thanks for showing your morals in wanting that to go on.

For evil to grow, all good people need do is nothing.
You are asking that we do nothing.


Which of these following quotes would you endorce in terms of judging?



“Faith must trample under footall reason, sense, and understanding.”


“Reason is a *****, thegreatest enemy that faith has.”
Martin Luther


Galileo -- "I do notfeel obliged to believe that the same God who has endowed us with sense,reason, and intellect has intended us to forgo their use."

What?!?! I'm a Christian and I do not discriminate against either.

To me... it looks like Ian is schooling you so you have to bring out the stereotypes.

Looks like YOU need a Theology lesson instead of spreading your message of hate.

Looks like you do not know Christian theology.

Want to see some hate?

God’s law versus secular law.Which is moral?

Our literature is rife with criticisms of God’s laws denouncing them as immoral.

This is mostly done by non-believers and secular law makers and even many believers. The whole world has rejected the morality of God’s law.

Satan shall deceive the whole world. That is scripture.

Believers say that God’s laws are moral; yet very few believers are trying to push for adoption of God’s laws by secular governments.

If believers believed that God’s laws are moral, it follows that they would be trying to have them implemented by governments. Strangely, they do not.

Can a believer believe in God yet not believe in his laws?

No believer is living by God’s law.

If believers believe in God’s laws, should believers be living by them?

Law without punishment is impotent law.

Should believers demand that secular law use God’s punishments where those few laws are basically identical?

In your version of the world God would have come into being the day a group that formed a primitive society and came across something like this. It is not much different, supernatural Gods that are missing in action for a very long time
All gods are "supernatural", or a better term would be "surreal" as they are made in the human image. People have been inventing gods from day 1 and initially it's a result of not being able to explain what is not understood. Science has been taking apart these gods and the "unexplainable" and disspelling the myths of them.

I think you have this backwards friend.
Nope, I don't. Everything we do, say, think, etc. is as a result of our DNA and the electrochemistry in our brains and has been ever since our brains perceived our very first experiences.

That does not disprove what I said. The Uncertainty Principle simply states that we influence what we observe.
We can only react one way to any circumstance. People can imagine they have choices in things but in the end they choose the only way they can choose. People can only do something because their brain tells them to.

They were set up? As the story goes they were told not to.

As a parent would tell a child... don't touch the stove. When they do they get burned. Simple logic.

Perhaps but then that parent does not do as God did and lock away what would keep them alive and in fact murder his children by neglect.

All because his children chose not to be as bright as bricks.

The God shown in scriptures is the one I was thinking of but I am willing to discuss any of the many versions of God.

After all, the bible has produced many Gods as interpreted by the myriad of sects that it has spawned from Universalist Gods to tyrannical ones who will only have a few of us worthy of his presence. Even as he loves us all. A joke that some believe.

Let me set the logic trail.

We can only give up what we have.
If I have an apple and am asked to give it up I can.
If I do not have an apple and am asked to give it up, I cannot.

If you have free will, you can give it up to someone else.
If you do not have free will then you cannot.

Your free will would normally let you begin your respond in whatever way you want to this post.

Living outside the narrow definition that marriage defines, meaning expenses associated with the marriage and the divorce, is a greater hardship than 'living in an unpunished sinful life' where the state allows shared expenses and ownership anyway. The Gospel of John paints a wedding as being a week long drunk (for the men) and 'gossip time' for the women and 'meet your future partner' for the kids. It was Rome making people get up an travel in the middle of winter rather than God. Is that some sort of self-preservation tactic non-believres put up?

That's a nice summation. The Bible is sometimes long winded, how would you sum this up?

"if the dead rise not?
let us eat and drink;
for to morrow we die."

Science has been taking apart these gods and the "unexplainable" and disspelling the myths of them.
They ignore the part where they have to explain all the really old places and how they were built when we were supposed to be less capable back then than we are now. If we can't do it how would somebody walking around in 4,000 BC be able to do it? What would he 'say' if he just found them as deserted places?

That isn't proof of the Bible but to debunk the Bible you have to have an argument to debunk, modify the story based on the actual words and that is what should be the base. The exodus has places named that can be found on a bible atlas.today. Moses and Co booked it south off-road from the named place but he camped beside the first body of water and that is the water that God parted by sending a strong wind from the east and that is what parted the waters. In the maps of those named places is a large lake with a narrow spot, a wind from the east would blow the water back so the wet sandy bottom was exposed and when the wind stopped the water that had been pushed into the larger part of the lake came rushing back in and good-bye soldiers.
Did Moses think this up while out for a stroll?

You must remember what she taught you, was it right or was it 'by the book'? (you can leave out the finer details of how the many detentions went)

It means that if you are not using the Jewish interpretation of their own book then you are reading it foolishly.

I love his vids, lol He pointed out that the Christians that worship Jesus (rather than a one true God) are actually worshiping a Jew. I can go along with that, does it come with tax and banking rights would be something a Christian would have to disclose. Probably wouldn't go over all that well.

As for them having above average insight into what the OT means I give them credit for a large undertaking. Where are the updates that allow for the whole NT to be properly meshed, at the very John the Baptist was and OT Prophet sent by God, the old understanding doesn;t take into consideration the two books his disciple wrote.. Big news flash, if the OT was a fable the the cross was a fable and possession of the land cannot be transferred into reality for some specific people that have always been mart of the real world. I can understand the desire to try and blend into a proven world. If the OT was a myth it is time to park the book and all that goes along with that, I don't see that proposal being on the table, ****, the change in diet that came with the scattering in De:4:30 hasn't even been accepted, kosher only food' was modified by Peter. If they miss that small gift from God as making their time in the nations more pleasant by making Gentile food clean. Acts 10 is the vision, the words bolded say they serve a 'strange God', what the Apostles taught would have fit perfectly into that prophecy, yet even to day that connection cannot be allowed to be updated.

De:4:28:
And there ye shall serve gods,
the work of men's hands,
wood and stone,
which neither see,
nor hear,
nor eat,
nor smell.

Ac:10:15:
And the voice spake unto him again the second time,
What God hath cleansed,
that call not thou common.

They simply don't have all the information available to be able to explain those fantastic builds. That in no way means that gods and such crap are real.

DB The place names in the Bible were many times taken from celestial maps designed to instruct in theology, so rather than actual historical geography as source for the names used in the scriptures the theological names were assigned to earth geographical locations long after the scriptures were written.DB

Christian manhandling of the Scriptural texts, in the eleventh chapter of Revelation. If, as five or six Church Councils have decreed in utmost solemnity, every word of the Bible is God's infallible truth, then at least one verse of the Holy Book negates the whole story of the four Gospels, taken historically. The apocalyptic writer (who, say many discerning scholars, could not have been the disciple John!) is speaking of the "two witnesses," previously called "the two olive trees," but taken by theology to be two hierarchical powers; and in the preceding verse he says that the "dragon" shall rise up and slay them. Then in verse eight he makes the statement that puts all historical Christianity on the stand for searching cross examination: "And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the city which is spiritually called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified." Only the flash of light dimmed for eighteen centuries and reillumined as Massey's "Egypt" was being perused, provided a dialectical basis for the salvation of Christianity in its proper essence and message from the devastating implications of that remarkable eighth verse. What! The Lord Christ not crucified in Jerusa-

lem, but in a city spiritually named Sodom and Egypt! And Egypt not even the name of a geographical earthly city, but of a land and nation! (And even that meaning disqualified by our present knowledge that the name "Egypt" in both Old and New Testaments is an allegorical designation for earth itself, the "underworld" into which souls descend for incarnate life!) Also there is the damaging consideration that geographically and historically Sodom and Egypt were not one and the same place, a fact which makes it necessary to assign one crucifixion to two different places, and neither of them the place claimed for the event in the Gospel stories. If the statement in this eighth verse is in any sense true, then it refutes the whole of the Gospel accounts of a physical crucifixion of the man Jesus in Jerusalem. And with characteristic subterfuge the ecclesiastical system of Christianity has evaded the issue presented by the conflict between this verse and the Gospels.THE LOST KEY TO

Not once have we discussed nor even mentioned the first and only law contemplated by the ancients and that is Natural Law sir. Neither Gods nor mans laws can ever eclipse the laws of physics. That was the original power and subject being explored charted and explained by the old mystery schools, the origin of all religion is the study of physics. Natural law rules all.
