Re: The Rise of Man

Easy Danny. I didn't call you a heretic. I didn't call you anything. Reread my post. I simply pointed out that your post aligned with the Muslim view of the world and asked if you were a Muslim or had something else in mind. How does that equate to you a heretic? It does not. You chose to become hy...

Re: The Rise of Man

How can you claim that God is pleased when He cursed us (and the animals too) (Gen 3:13-19)? Why is knowing evil, and being thrown out paradise a rise? We had free will before The Fall - it's not as if we gained it. You are taking a sentence or two out of context to get at the meaning that you wish...

Re: Ardi - Ardipithecus ramidus

Proof is something beyond all of the natural sciences - namely biology, physics and chemistry. Proof is unique to the mathematician and the logician...I've tried to stress this point several times. I'm curious, though; if people like Dawkins use evolution to prop up their lack of faith, then what o...

Re: Ardi - Ardipithecus ramidus

Not exactly... There are some similarities which also could be explained by a common designer, but there are also differences... "Humans have two fewer (one pair) chromosomes compared to chimpanzees . However, human chromosome 2 seems to be a combination of two smaller chromosomes found in ape...

Matthew 19:5-7 "...For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh... So they no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not seperate." It is still nagging me people. Danny "...Therefore ...

Re: Did God create others after Adam and Eve?

Not a problem Danny. How was your trip to NY? You should have told me you were going to be in my neck of the woods. We could've done lunch or something. Were you in NYC at all?) Do you know what Byblos, that's a lovely thing for you to suggest and next time I'm over I will pre warn you and take you...

Re: The Rise of Man

[ Wow. This is amazingly twisted. y:O2 After the Fall, Eve was also the mother of all the dead. God gave humans the breath of life (Gen 2:7), but he said we would die from eating that one fruit (disobeying Him). Disobedience brought spiritual death and eventual physical death (Gen 2:17). We can be ...

Re: The Rise of Man

I don't know if you intended it but this is very much a Muslim position. Are you a Muslim? According to Islam, God made man his viceregent on earth. When Satan (Iblis), an angel made from fire, refused to bow before inferior man at his creation, he was accursed and cast out of heaven. In response t...

The Rise of Man

I want to claim that the so-called "Fall of Man" is nothing of the sort. I want to clain this is the Rise of Man. Man's eyes have been opened. Man's knowledge of good from evil is a prototypical breakthrough. God even praises Man for "...now being like one of us, knowing good and evil...

Re: Did God create others after Adam and Eve?

I keep messing up the quote system. Please read my reply carefully, and please could someone point out to me where I'm messing up with the quote system? Thanks.

Re: Did God create others after Adam and Eve?

Byblos, Sorry for the long delay. I'm not long back from NY - It's all about the Windy Apple. But all I could think about is getting right back to you! I did not say that at all. All I said is that since they are not born to a fallen nature (because they are not from Adam's lineage) it's quite possi...

That's a nice way to put it, Cslewislover.

Re: A Theological Wrinkle

Danny, these verses are a response from Christ regarding those already married. So faith alone is not enough, and the love of a husband for his wife my just save the unbelieving her, not through their own choice, but in spite of it. That is not correct. You can't save someone by marrying them. No o...

Re: Did God create others after Adam and Eve?

Correct, they would not be subject to sin because they are not the descendants of the first sinner. There's no mechanism by which sin can propagate to them since they are not from Adam's lineage.]. So this people could live a life of sin and debauchery and God woul just ignore this? Now this makes ...
