RevGen is enochwasright....but the odd thing is that revgen is a very different poster.
Oh and revgen doesn't know the commandments (he once argued with me that jealously is not a sin)
Just ignore the guy...brainwashed and not one original thought in that closed mind.

I remember enoch saying he had to change his name due to his blog.
Funny how Enoch goes and this one comes back.
I may be wrong though.
Either way expect Rev to damn us all to Hell blah blah blah.edit on 22-11-2013 by boymonkey74 because: (no reason given)

I found this online somewhere a while ago and would like to share it with you:
The earth is a sphere (Isaiah 40:22)
Science THEN: The earth was a flat disk
Science NOW: The earth is a sphere
Innumerable stars (Jeremiah 33:22)
Science THEN: Only 1,100 stars
Science NOW: Innumerable stars
Free float of earth in space (Job 26:7)

Science NOW: Free float of earth in space
Creation made of invisible Elements (Hebrews 11:3)
Science THEN: Science was ignorant on the subject
Science NOW: Creation made of invisible elements (atoms)
Each star is different (1 Corinthians 15:41)
Science THEN: All stars were the same
Science NOW: Each star is different
Light moves (Job 38:19, 20)
Science THEN: Light was fixed in place
Science NOW: Light moves
Air has weight (Job 28:25)
Science THEN: Air was weightless
Science NOW: Air has weight
Wind blows in cyclones (Ecclesiastes 1:6)
Science THEN: Wind blew straight
Science NOW: Wind blows in cyclones
Blood is the source of Life and health (Leviticus 17:11)
Science THEN: Sick people must be bled

The difference, again, is that Intelligent Design relies on a scientific approach, while Creationists are philosophical, not scientists. You can fault the findings and claims of ID, but to say that they're not approaching it differently than Creationists are is simply ignorant.

Really? Cheap lab coats?
See my reply post to Superman.

He is the author of about 150 scientific papers in Polish and international periodicals.
Care to say this guy just wears a cheap lab coat?

not just the christian god but also the jewish god and the muslim god. you missed them. also some less known branches, like the mormons, gnostics, some orthodox, some not.
And who specifically? The Christian god. Sure there are others, but generally whenever anyone mentions creationists or ID, it's in the biblical sense.
i think the issue is people who have compiled critical papers on the subject, have based their entire critique on the papal interpretation instead of what the text actually says. and those interpretations usually date back to before the advent of universitiy sciences and archaeology. i view that approach as the lazy strawman. it's easy. 1) go find an indefensible interpretation, 2) add a few scholarly critical papers that can easily debunk it, 3) rinse, wash, repeat. forever.
Creationists have creation scientists, along with a creation museum. Neither have any scientific basis, same thing with ID, it has scientists but no scientific basis. They claim the same things, and have produced the same amount of breakthoughs..........none, nada, zip, nothing. Re-branding creationism as intelligent design fools nobody, other than those who really really really want it to be true…
Creationism is focused on defending a literal reading of the Genesis account, usually including the creation of the earth by the Biblical God a few thousand years ago. Unlike creationism, the scientific theory of intelligent design is agnostic regarding the source of design and has no commitment to defending Genesis, the Bible or any other sacred text. Instead, intelligent design theory is an effort to empirically detect whether the "apparent design" in nature observed by biologists is genuine design (the product of an organizing intelligence) or is simply the product of chance and mechanical natural laws. This effort to detect design in nature is being adopted by a growing number of biologists, biochemists, physicists, mathematicians, and philosophers of science at American colleges and universities. Scholars who adopt a design approach include biochemist Michael Behe of Lehigh University, microbiologist Scott Minnich at the University of Idaho, and mathematician William Dembski at Baylor University.
