LOL and where exactly is Satan mentioned in Genesis 3?
The serpent, didn't think you would know this.

Maybe but it explains a lot that happens in scripture, and as peanut says, zoom right over your head.

They may not have known they were like our sun but then that doesn't matter either because they believed the entire universe that they knew about was going to be destroyed.
FM Wrote:Cut the crap GC, there are literally verses in the Bible of "prophecies" how the stars will fall from heaven onto Earth - that's completely impossible from what we know about and which is a proof writers of the Bible did not know about the universe nor had the slightest idea of what stars were.
Like I said it doesn't matter what they believed about the universe they knew it was going to be destroyed. As for the verses metaphor, I mean really did you not give one thought about God knowing the Bible was going to be taught in the 20th and 21st centuries. He gave it in a form that could be understood and known throughout history, smarten up.

FM Wrote:And how would they know "that the availability of breathable air was less on top than at the bottom" since no one climbed Mt. Ararat until 19th century? As well as all other mountain peaks. People didn't know how to climb them nor did they had tools. Needles to say you ignored the part where I wrote how people thought that the air goes forever.
That's in a time when recording events is what we do. You have no idea whether anyone climbed Ararat back then and they did not need to go to the peak to find out the air was less, I've climbed 10,000 feet starting from 8,000 feet and i can tell you that every 500 feet became more difficult. My whole point was that they could have known that the higher one goes the less habitable it is. They could have possibly reasoned that at some point one could not survive at a certain height. You like to think these people were stupid, far from it, they were able to build structures with hand tools only that we can't accomplish today.

There are so many different ways you can interpret different parts of the Bible; there can be as many interpretations as there are people reading it. The fact is, the Bible is a poorly written, terribly organized pile of garbage that really follows no order, reason or logic. It's just a collection of a bunch of shit people wrote a long time ago.
Who cares?
I'm guessing you haven't read it. It is well written and follows a path through time for certain events to come to fruition for certain reasons that some of us wanted to know, so we studied and learned.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
