It IS in the bible too!Both the Earth is round and the notion that the entire Earth can be seen from atop a mountain, which means it is flat.Why is that?Did one set of authors not get God's memo and the others did?

ISA 40:22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:

MAT 4:8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;

Astromical bodies are spherical, and you cannot see the entire exterior surface from anyplace. The kingdoms of Egypt, China, Greece, Crete, sections of Asia Minor, India, Maya (in Mexico), Carthage (North Africa), Rome (Italy), Korea, and other settlements from these kingdoms of the world were widely distributed

I think i heard a long time ago, that there were three kangaroos on the ark, because they used the pouch to hide the baby. Anyone else heard this? Or maybe i'm mixed up

I go to one and somehow got on the subject of helping others. The scenario in discussion was what would you do if you found someone lying ill on the floor of a train. I hadn't even given my response when someone said "I bet Poopsy* (not my real name of course) would just leave him lying there".

It is mentioned in the Gospel of Mark, Ch. No.16, Verse No.17 and 18 - It says that… ‘There will be signs for true believers and among the signs - In my name they shall cast out devils, they shall speak foreign tongues, new tongues, they shall take up serpents - And if they drink deadly poison, they shall not be harmed - And when they place their hand over the sick, they shall be cured.’ This is a scientific test - In scientific terminology, it is known as the ‘confirmatory test’ for a true Christian believer. In the past 10 years of my life, I have personally interacted with thousands of Christians, including missionaries - I have not come across a single Christian, who has passed this confirmatory test of the Bible.

GEN 7:2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.

GEN 7:8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that are not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth, GEN 7:9 There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.

So did 7 clean of every kind of beasts go in or was it two?

Incest!! Certain denominations refuse to even answer that question. Their interpretations of the Bible, are clearly to satisfy THEIR own beliefs!!

this is just a burning question i always wanted to know... i mean, if that is true, how does God look like? there is man in many colors (black, white, yellow,brown...) and sizes (fat, thin, tall, short)... then how can it b that God created man in his image? then how come all people don't look the same since God created people in his image?

I would defend the liberty of consenting adult creationists to practice whatever intellectual perversions they like in the privacy of their own homes, but it is also necessary to protect the young and innocent.

that Jesus said ‘I and my father one’. it is, a verse from the Bible, in the Gospel of John, Ch. No.10, Verse No.30, which does say… ‘I and my father are one’. But when you ask the Christian missionaries, that… ‘What is the context?’ I have not yet met a Christian missionary, who can tell you the context without opening the Bible. He knows ‘I and my father are one’, but he does not know the context. For example, if I quote to someone, that the Qur’an says, ‘Does not pray’ - Most of the Muslims would be shocked - what am I saying? And if you open it up, it says… ‘Do not pray’ - but its half the verse. Surah Nisa Ch.4, Verse No.43, says ‘Do not pray with your mind befogged’ - Do not pray when you are intoxicated. So if I only quote… Do not pray - It will mean Qur’an says, ‘Don’t pray’ – half the quotation.

Maybe, just MAYBE, satan, i mean evolution, is the answer and it's all okay because its MICROEVOLUTION? Oh what a relief... WRONG! it can't be because we couldn't have evolved all these different traits (About 8 races) in 6k years. Lets say then that magically one of their kids evolved (mutated) by "chance" into an indian (thats a 1 in a billion chance of turning into another race without gradual middle steps like normal evolution has); how would this kid reproduce? This kid would be seen as ugly because the kid would be sooo different from everyone else; it would be like you having sex with a green person (to the people that had never seen an indian that's parallel). So natural selection would have eliminated this gene. And lets say natural selection DIDN'T get rid of this gene because the kid was some crazy rapist getting chicks pregnant, we would all be one hybrid species by now.

So how does your little bible justify the fact that we have so many races?

I have often had bible passages quoted at me as proof of God's existance. Always seems odd as an Athiest such books have not been proven true in any accurate sense of the word to my knowledge. How are the claims of such books held to account such that they can constitute proof?
