I give up I really do.
No point trying to reason with some people, I could spend my time showing you facts to do with it but you will just come up with some mumbo jumbo and put your fingers in your ears singing tra la la.
Goodnight all.

Now we are talking about Atlantians, they were clever as they were genetically engineered. Intresting myth.
But you missed my point, Testaments were written by people at that time not by God or Jesus. And the fact they were written by people is a scientific fact. Old testament was written 1400 B.C, they were no longer cave men.edit on 18-11-2012 by dollukka because: (no reason given)

Thank you for showing some of the questions, I now see it would be a waste of time to watch the videos.
As i look over them again, I see most can be answered from the same Bible this guy most-likely did not read.
He seems to be one of them "I don't like/believe the same as you and I'm right your wrong, look at me, look at me!" kind of people. (just my opinion)

It's amazing what we'll do to justify our own egos. Human nature is great comedy sometimes. We really are primates!

14 Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. 15 And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven.

2. If the ark was covered in pitch or tar to make it watertight, it also made it airtight -- how did the animals survive more than one or two days living in complete darkness without any fresh air? Remember, the rain lasted 40 days and 40 nights. Noah couldn’t open the window in the top.

4. Why would God place a forbidden tree in the garden so close to his innocent creation and allow Satan to tempt them into eating from it, all the while looking on without doing a thing to prevent it?

7. If you believe the creation account in Genesis is mere allegory, then why don’t you throw out Paul’s epistles? Because he believed that the creation account was a historical fact.

1. The Bible tells us that God sacrificed his only son so that we can go to Heaven (John 3:16), but the Bible also tells us that he raised his son back from the dead again. If God didn’t really lose his son, then how is that a sacrifice?

3. The Bible tells us that God regretted making Saul king (1 Samuel 15:11), but if that’s the case, doesn’t that mean God didn’t know the future? Because if he knew he was going to regret making Saul king, he would’ve never done it in the first place.

7. If everyone who ever lived, prior to Jesus, could get into heaven by simply believing God (Romans 4:17, Galatians 3:6, James 2:23), like Abraham did, doesn’t that make Jesus a little superfluous?

8. The Bible tells us that God isn’t willing that anybody should perish (2 Peter 3:9), but his holy word has been corrupted through the ages by mankind, so doesn’t that mean that God either allowed it to be corrupted, or he was unable to keep it from being corrupted?

9. In the book of James, God instructs Christians on what they should do when they get sick (James 5:14-15). There’s supposed to pray and lay hands on the sick person, and God promises to heal them, so why do you ignore God’s command and run to science every time you get sick? (WHOOOOOOOOA)

10. The Bible tells us that Jesus threw a huge temper tantrum in the Jewish temple (John 2:15). He actually made a whip, and whipped these people, and drove them out of the temple, but not before overturning their tables and spilling their money everywhere. The Bible also tells us that Jesus called a Canaanite woman a dog (Mark 7:27). And Jesus insulted the Pharisees by calling them derogatory names at every turn (Matthew 23:13-33). Jesus also lied to his own disciples (John 7:8-10); they asked him if he was going to the feast, he said, “no, my time’s not yet come.” And he turns around and goes to the feast.

Better question would be why did the Serpent tell them the truth about the tree when their god lied to them? The tree did not kill them and instead gave them knowledge. Just like the Serpent said it would.

I do find your question very interesting, despite its seeming luciferian / gnostic bias.
Some believe that Adam and Eve were actually immortal prior to eating the fruit. If that were the case, it would mean eating it did, in fact, kill them.
I think another interesting interpretation of this is that upon eating the fruit they realized they would one day die. This may even accord with the fact that it was supposedly the tree of knowledge. And I don't know about you... but the day I realized (not intellectually, but in a very real, present, OMG-kind-of-sense) that I would one day die and rot, I felt a little bit "down." Some might argue that knowledge itself was a punishment.
