The laws of physics state that everything in motion must have a mover.

The wind comes from the different gases in the atmosphere heating up differently from the sun's rays and the sun's rays come from nuclear reactions and the nuclear reactions came from the big bang and the big bang must have had a mover.

We call that mover God.

God does not have to have a creator because he is outside of space and time so he is exempt from this.

Agree?

When I was a child, I had to use my imagination alot to enjoy
playing outside, or even inside. I made mud pies when it
rained and had tea parties, and played with paper dolls. I played "Annie, Annie Over" with neighbors and a ball. Or we played school, doctor, dress up, & in tree houses with a minimum of things. We didn't have many store bought
toys. Those were not necessities. So what we got for Christmas, had to be taken care of to last.
I remember later as a teenager, our dad bought a croquet
set, and that was a big deal for us to play in the backyard.
Times were changing, and soon we'd even have a colored TV.
But the 40's thru the mid 50s' were more times of struggle for many families. So I'd like to hear, how it was for just we seniors having to rely on improvising and using our imagin-
ations to have fun during those times.

Ok, your turn to bash trolls with big words, trust me, they have no idea what you're saying. ;)

Just because creationism lumps the origin of life and the origin of the universe within a few days doesn't mean it's the same for the real world. And not all atheists believe these theories, they could have there own crackpot theories like creationism on how life started and how the universe began like .

1. Big bang theory: origin of the universe (~14 billion years old)

2. Origin of life: multiple theories of how life began on Earth (~4 billion years old)

3. Evolution: surplus of offspring, variability in each offspring, natural selection, reproduction of the fittest and all that jazz
(Darwin, the origin of species, 1859)

4. atheism: the doctrine or belief that there is no God and/or disbelief in the existence of a supreme being or beings.

Just helping you guys so you can make more convincing arguments when attempting to disprove evolution or something. Cuz when I see someone talking about the big bang when the question refers to evolution I die a little inside.

If I feel attacked to the same sex, doe it mean that my siblings (brothers) will likewise be attracted to the same sex? Or at least, does it mean that since they grew up in the same "environment" that they will have a higher propensity to be gay.

.....and that date passes (again) without incident, are we justified in calling that person a liar, and everyone who believed that person deluded and the applicable religion flawed?

And how many more times do we have to listen to and read such obvious rubbish before they lose any credibility they might have had?

by the aliens?

It would explain how they knew about the big bang and maybe the "flood" and the Ark were actually just the aliens way of getting us transported from one planet to another. The Ark could have been a spaceship and the 2 of every creature was a way of seeding the new planet.

This idea doesn't negate a true God and could explain the 6000 vs 6 billion year old issue. maybe we were just seeded here 6000 years ago and though there were "cavemen" we just killed them off.

What do you think?

RUSS WITTENBERG: "I flew the two actual aircraft which were involved in 9/11... Fight number 175 and Flight 93, the 757 that allegedly went down in Shanksville and Flight 175 is the aircraft that's alleged to have hit the South Tower. I don't believe it's possible for... a so-called terrorist to train on a 172, then jump in a cockpit of a 757-767 class cockpit, and vertical navigate the aircraft, lateral navigate the aircraft, and fly the airplane at speeds exceeding it's design limit speed by well over 100 knots, make high-speed high-banked turns,.. pulling probably 5, 6, 7 G's... I couldn't do it and I'm absolutely positive they couldn't do it."

..........I would probably be put into a mental institute.

I mean if a carpenter came up to you and said l"eave all your family and follow me, I am the son of God, I will show you the way" it is not very likely that you would just go home and say "Hey missus, Im buggering off with Derek the chippy for a tour of the world, he is going to show me the way"

And Jesus managed to get 12 people to do this!

Now I am no bible expert but this story seems a little fishy to me.

Am I missing something?

I just got a call from a pleasant voiced female (recording) telling me info about "My credit card" and how to reduce the interest, blah, blah, and then I was to hit 1 on the phone.

I hung up. Seniors, this seems to be the newest scam and I warm you about it. They do not specify what credit card it is...first clue.
Second clue, reducing your interest.

Most featured clue: "Unknown caller." I answer this because some people with cell phones may be calling me. Once I learn it is a complete stranger, I hang up.

Please do not give anyone any information about any credit card of anything of that nature over the phone.

Best wishes. I had to share with you.

I know it would be paradoxical, since they are basically the same thing, but it touches on genetics in the bible, so don't creationists have to believe in it?
And if so, how do they rationalize it?
