I suggest you go SILENT and be recognised for a coward...rather than keep digging and be exposed more and more for the irrational, superstitious, science hating, creationist that you STUBBORNLY remain...in the face of all evidence! YEP! You spit on Reason! The bible says the earth is 6000 years old. So like a complete dummy, you reject Science instead of the bible! And you start screaming like a chucklehead..."CONSPIRACY"!! OR "WHAT IS A 'DAY'!! Can any part of Genesis be accepted as true while still respecting the truths and the integrity of ALL the sciences??? The answer of course is, "NO BLOODY WAY!" So you can reject the bible or you can reject science? What will it be, Knucklehead?! I am done with you for now. Take some deep breaths and lick your wounds! ;-) ;-) YOU ARE A LAUGHING STOCK!!!! http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=29719411 Before you close up the rabbit hole you are cringing in, we have a repeat of several unanswered questions!! Is there a secret code in Genesis such that a "day" is not a day and such that the "morning" and the "evening" of the "day" are secret codes for something else?? Are the genealogies in the bible accurate or are they a secret code?? Is Science accurate when it claims that the ages of the earth and the universe are approximately 9 BILLION years apart? Or is it more accurate to say that the heavens and the earth were created in 6 days? When God rested on the seventh day--how many hours did he rest? When God commanded man to keep the seventh day Holy, was he using a secret code or was he referring to the sort of day that we find in a week? When the Israelites murdered the old man for gathering sticks on God's Holy day of rest, were they thinking of a secret code in Genesis where a "day" was not a day?? Did dinosaurs and humans present on the same day in history...or did dinosaurs precede humans? Did humans exist when dinosaurs roamed the earth 208 to 145 million years ago during the "Jurassic" period? If Genesis does not mean what it says--if Genesis is a code written by Moses before God buried him in the mountains...is there any point in anybody mindlessly reading this code without knowing what it really means? Isn't it somehow wrong to have people misinterpreting the Divine words of God when they do not know the secret code?? Are members of your church working assiduously to decipher the secret code of Genesis or do they simply shrug and say, "it doan matter, Mabel! The bible doesn't contradict Science because the bible is a code! Let the scientists figure out the code, Mabel. Thems so damn smart!!" http://www.siliconinvestor.com/readmsg.aspx?msgid=29719451 WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THIS??? God directly commands that an old man be executed for gathering sticks on a particular "DAY". He claims that working on this "DAY" pisses him off because he rested on this "DAY" after creating 'heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them' . But you said something about a day in Genesis not really being a day? It was some sort of code? But God walked right into the camp of Moses and ORDERED them to kill that old man for something he was doing on a day that was certainly not a code for anything!!! What do you make of that??? We are all ears!!!!!!!!! "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days you shall labor, and do all your work, but the seventh day is a Sabbath to the LORD your God. On it you shall not do any work, you, or your son, or your daughter, your male servant, or your female servant, or your livestock, or the sojourner who is within your gates. For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day. Therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and made it holy." — Exodus 20:8-11 (ESV) While the people of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man gathering sticks on the Sabbath day. 33 And those who found him gathering sticks brought him to Moses and Aaron and to all the congregation. 34 They put him in custody, because it had not been made clear what should be done to him. 35 And the LORD said to Moses, “The man shall be put to death; all the congregation shall stone him with stones outside the camp.” 36 And all the congregation brought him outside the camp and stoned him to death with stones, as the LORD commanded Moses. Numbers 15:32-36:
