The Biblical creation story were archaeologically predated by a similar Sumerian creation story?
(It was, by the way. Look up Ancient Sumerian Archaeologist Zecherias Sitchin)

ie: The farthest back (culturally) we can go in history are the Sumerians. After them came the Babylonians, Assyrians, Hebrews, etc etc etc. We know jack before the Sumerians, essentially - they were here (as far as recorded history is conerned) first.
Coincidentally, (or not) their culture had a creation story that, interestingly enough, seems to be the original copy/version of the Biblical story, and was around thousands of years beforehand.

Would it rub you wrong if g/God revealed the alleged truth of creation to this "pagan" culture first and Genesis was simply a bootleged version?
Would it change what you believe at all?
Do you even think the creation story should be taken literally?

So many people came and said Buddhism is the most logical religion. Why? Buddhism fundamentally denies the significance of your subjective experience and nullifies any meaning in life.

if god is all knowing and the most intelligant person in the universe than wouldn't he be able to understand that some people don't believe in him? if a person lived a good life and was a good person would that person be sent to hell just for not believing in him? i'm sure god has to be more mature than that.

understanding, then why do they ask questions or answer questions aimed at athiests that sound unbelievingly rude and offensive, as well as very naive? I am an athiest, I am happy, and Christians/Catholics are supposed to accept me aren't they? Funny how most of those religions end up contradicting themeselves. If you are going to say that you believe in God, then why not follow his teachings "religiously" ( haha I like that one).

Sometimes I am sitting, experiencing just an ordinary moment and I realize, I "saw" this before. I wonder as a Christian if this is wrong, or some minor gift. I have never seen anything life changing, and I cannot bring "it" on, it just happens. Any thoughts?

is it CURRENTLY the single most influential piece of literature?

-pretty sure it has been in the past

...if it is currently the single most influential piece of literature in western culture, what do you think about that? are you ashamed, heartened, fearful, buoyed or dismayed (etc)?

how do you think that fact could be used to explain some of the characteristics of our culture?

If you have call the law offices of Roni Duetch

If that doesnt work, call on God, He has something waiting for you.

We were meant to live for so much more.

And satan doesnt want that to happen.

They are so good, but if you eat too much, you get a stomach ache.

Sounds like sex, and drugs, and money. Hmmmm...

I guess he doesn't exist.

I understand now that alot of "Christians" are going to reply with an answer to this question and make up an excuse. Which is kinda sad.

The belief in prayer is a superstition.

I mean the reference to Moses in the Bible parting the Red Sea. Could it have meant a revolution that Moses helped his people win?
