Also science is not religious or atheist. It’s science. It’s goal is to explain things. If I ask how does fire burn wood, I can’t just say “ god made fire to burn wood”. I have to go through the chemical processes , heat and so on. if I ask how does a cloud form, and I mention evaporation...

There is tons of evidence for several species of dinosaurs. Episode 101 – Sauropods Episode 120 – Tyrannosaurs Episode 42 – Spinosaurs Episode 21 – Dinosaurs, an Introduction This is an episode from them covering the geological time scale. Episode 12 – The Geologic Time Scale Though this...

No one uses literally really to mean anything than factual, or historical now days. When someone says that they take genesis literally, they mean they take it as being historically and scientifically accurate and true. The movement is called “ biblical literalists”. As far as presenting it...

So you think I’m reading between the lines? so answer this. if the husband accuses his virgin wife of not being a virgin what is the evidence the parents gather that proves she’s a virgin? What are the parents going in and taking to bring out and carry before the elders?

It’s amusing to repeatedly see this argument. If I disagree with a young earth creationist interpretation of the Bible, and I disagree with their pseudoscience then that means I disagree with God or reject the Bible. Again no. It simply means i disagree with the young earth creationists...

i believe the story of the gospels as well. I think Jesus literally died, came back from the dead and ascended to wherever his father is. but that does not change my stance on the things I’ve mentioned.

I think it’s only a hope breaker if you believe that the Bible is inerrant. I don’t. So it’s expected. There are several more, but when people can’t accept scientific facts about periods, they usually don’t accept anything else. Deconstruction can often feel like hopelessness, but it usually...

But the point of the post is not “ Was Jewish people evil” because they are not. The point of the post is “ how can modern American Christian’s claim inerrancy when the Bible never claims it, Jews never claimed it and the virgin test is the perfect example to showcase how they ( literalist ) are...

perhaps today. But that’s definitely not the case historically of Mesopotamian tribes. Ancient Jewish men and women believed that all Virgins bleed the first time. That myth even persisted to this day and age among many. The ritual your friend did is based off of the presumed science thousands...

So again….. why would I need to throw the Bible away? show me where I said anything even remotely close to what you stated? You made a statement as if that’s what I’m doing? You actually made several statements , some I am and some I am not. Was the Bible written by men? Yeah. Was it written...

It’s literally in the OP dude….

Why would I have to throw the Bible away? I don’t have to throw any of it away. I just have to find a healthier, more educated and biblical sound way of interpreting it. So that’s what I do. I interpret the Bible in a way that places it within its proper context. The context it’s ancient readers...

You sound like someone with a very Christ like heart……. I noticed you skimped out on part of it though. Was the Bible right when it says all virgins bleed on their time having sex? Is that a fact or is that wrong?

I’m definitely glad to live during the time post Christ. We are far more educated, emotionally intelligent and just kinder in general versus then. But the way they were was never Gods plan. That’s why Christ came and corrected it.

I guess I’m not 100% certain what your saying. I’m in many threads with many people and often it’s circling around and so sometime someone’s convo gets lost. women can definitely not bleed on their first time. Even though ancient Jewish people believed it and it’s in the Bible, it’s just not...

Sure. But a major part of evolution is that the fossil record shows drastic speciation as divergent traits take it further and further from its basal form. such as boneless fish becoming boned fish and some bones fish developing lungs such as lungfish and eventually becoming tetrapods on land...

I agree 100% with the post. It’s why I believe what I believe and do what I do.

that’s for those caught in the act. If they were caught there would be no need for a test. This is for those who were not caught, but were accused of it and had to be tested….. I mean that is what it says correct?

It seems Jesus also thought it was wrong. after all when it came time to stone the adulterous woman, Jesus stopped it. so a better question would be which ones best represented what God desired. the prophets who said stone then to death or the messiah who said don’t. this is not the only...

I would rather be funny than or ignorant anyway.
