Do your beliefs mesh with those of the Apostles? What evidence of shared faith do you have?

I am so bad at it. I mean if it is an indepth conversation I am totally ok, but to just start chatting with someone I just met or a stranger I am so bad at it. Any suggestions?

After all, you are human, and humans by their nature are capable of error. Therefore, since you ARE human and there's no empirical proof that a God exists, isn't it absolutely correct to say that it's at least POSSIBLE you're wrong about the existence of God?

Moreover, isn't it interesting that where you were born largely determines what God you believe in, if you believe in a God? After all, if you were born in India, you'd most likely believe in the Hindu Gods, wouldn't you?

So isn't it possible that you were born in the area that chose the wrong God to believe in out of all the thousands of possible Gods, and you just were unlucky in that fashion?

Moreover, if you say "No, it's impossible that I'm wrong", isn't that committing blasphemy against your God by saying that you're as perfect as he is on that one particular issue? If you can't be wrong, isn't that saying you're perfect with respect to that issue, thereby elevating yourself to the same level as God?

Why do so many of you use the King James Version for this? If you are going to take it literally, shouldn't you use something translated literally, like Richmond Lattimore's translation of the New Testament?

Lattimore is highly looked upon as the best modern translator of Ancient and Hellenistic Greek. He translated the Illiad, and his translation of that is considered the best English translation. Also, he was not a theologian so he didn't try to make the Bible say anything, he just translated.

So why, even non-Literal Christians, would you use the King James Version of the New Testament over Richmond Lattimores?

This isn't to bash anyone, I just don't get it. When I came across this translation I wondered why every English-speaking Christian doesn't use it.

one that is strictly humanistic, and another one that is spiritual and and God honoring?

If, as many scolars believe, Eccl. 9:1-10 reflects strictly humanistic viewpoint, can you see how the statement in verse 5 ( " For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing." ) reflects not God's perspective but fallen humanity's perspective?

I read another post that some people believe in the literal stories of the bible, like the Noah story. So, given the dimensions of the boat, which I assume are known, how do you fit 17 million critters in there? This number is the current estimate of all species on earth. Everything that exists today HAD to be on that boat...right???

I'll make it easy, let's say Noah was a slacker and only brought half the species, how could he still fit that much stuff on one boat?
How could he build a boat that big?
How could he provide that much food for a diverse number of animals from all over the globe?
How could he stand the smell of that much crap in the boat? You can't train a warthog to do its business over the bow you know.

Logistically, this makes zero sense.

the estimate of the current number of species is 1.7 million and that is only 10% of the total estimated to live on earth. Back then, it would have been

I've noticed some trads have it easier then others on this. Egyptians are on the "easy" end and Celtics have lost almost everything. As an Asatru I don't really have it that bad, but I still get frusterated myself digging over three translations of a 900 year old text. LOL Do any other recons ever just want to scream?
