Re: Cain's journey
Byblos,
I'm sorry for the mixed post I have sent you. I have the hang of it, now.

Re: Cain's journey
Sorry Dan, not to beat up or gang up on you, but I would like to offer some thoughts based upon this comment. That's okay, Warhoop, I've taken enough beatings in the past :evil: Cain brought murder into the world, why not incest as well? And, again no disrepect intended, what you can or cannot acce...

Re: Cain's journey
Hey Byblos, I think my post yesterday possibly appeared confrontational. Furthest from my mind. I'm among likeminded people here and am just looking for answers. So sincere apologies, brothers and sisters. Danny, you did not come across as confrontational, just dismissive. Even with that, it's not ...

Re: Cain's journey
I've re-read the article, and in my opinion it is complete nonsense. It talks of genes more complicated with the induction of sin. It, for me, is a most desperate of articles. I hope true Christians see through this sort of thing. So you're given a plausible answer, you disagree with it, and theref...

Re: Cain's journey
I take it you didn't read the article? They weren't denounced as incestuous and stoned because the Law, which forbid such practices, was not yet given. This isn't just an issue for YECs. This is an issue for OECs and anyone who takes Adam and Eve to be real people. Of course, you can write the enti...

Re: Cain's journey
I'm not much of a fan of AiG, but since you mentioned YEC, and they are, for better or for worse, the de facto defenders of that position, I figured I'd let them answer your question themselves: http://www.answersingenesis.org/articles/nab/who-was-cains-wife Bottom line - Cain married his sister, w...

Cain's journey
So we know Cain killed his brother Able. Cain is cast out as a fugitive and worries that he will be killed if he is seen by anyone. God recognises the threat and puts the mark on Cain's forehead so to deter anyone from killing him. Cain goes to the land of nod and meets his wife. But hang on: How do...

Re: What happens when we die?
I'm hearing that missionaries from countries we had ourselves previously evangelised are coming over to Britain to preach the Gospel. I don't know how true this is, but I damn well hope it is true. How ironic! There's a downward trend in church attendances but belief appears to be on the rise. It's ...

Re: can god be good if he created evil?
Hi all, DannyM, You wrote, “It is a failure on the part of the evil-doer to use his/her free will for only good, which God intended”. I ask you then, where did the evil that the evil-doer is choosing come from? I believe that God gave us freewill to choose good or evil and yes it is God's desire f...

OEC/YEC ...
Hi, I'm a Newbie. and I'm sure you've all been through this before. But I'd like a direct dialogue, with anyone who still can be bothered, about this debate. Personally, I've never really taken the 6 "days" literally - but am not an absolutist on this issue - and have a healthy respect for...

Re: ? from an agnostic
Hello all, As my tag says I'm agnostic- I believe in something and try to follow Jesus's moral teachings but I can't honestly say that I'm a Christian, mainly because I believe the Bible was written by men (not God) with little if any divine inspiration. My wife is a Christian though and I go to ch...
