The Great Flood

[Kyuuketsuki]

I will repeat this for those who have not had the opportunity to consider it before.

And I will repeat this in case you did not get my drift ...in the bible it says DAYS, it doesn't say weeks or months or years or decades or indeed any other period of time, it says DAYS. Anything else you try to layer on it is INTERPRETATION and one that not every biblical scholar or believer accepts.

What is an arse? I have always wondered what an arse is and why people use that term rather than ass. Bottom. Buttocks. Anyway ...

Bum, backside, ass, bum cheeks, fanny (US) ... "xxxx my arse" is a UK expression comparing whatever was said with "my arse" and in this context essentially means meaning, "you're having a laugh", "you're reaching", "you're insane", "you're deluded".

Yes and that is so original. I think that is what the church used to say about Galileo's "Letters on Sunspots" in 1613. You don't see the similarities in the ignorant myopic emotional fixation of modern day science minded attempts to limit knowledge as the same?

I couldn't care less if it's the least original explanation in the world that is how your book of fairy tales reads.

Consider Astronomer Robert Jastrow, an agnostic in religious matters, who wrote: "The details differ, but the essential elements in the astronomical and biblical accounts of Genesis are the same: the chain of events leading to man commenced suddenly and sharply at a definite moment in time, in a flash of light and energy."

Agnostic my arse! Jastrow is a creationist, why should we take anything a creationist says as valid?

Armchair science is an excuse for a blinding rage, not much else.

"Where knowledge ends, religion begins." Benjamin Disraeli

Uh-huh.

Indeed!

Listen to that rage! You would think that your science could come up with a somewhat more scholarly criticism.

If you think a mild curse is rage you're an idiot.

The term is used the same today. Get over it. The heart is the central organ of the body and is used figuratively as the heart of things like "the heart of the earth" (Matthew 12:40), "the heart of the sea" (Exodus 15:8 / John 2:3), and "the heart of the big tree" (2 Samuel 18:14), and "midheaven" literally means "the heart of the heavens." (Deuteronomy 4:11)

It demonstrates little but poetry or ignorance.

I don't give a rat's ass more about science than you do the Bible and your weak ass defense of your own religion (science) is a great deal more pathetic than mine of the Bible. You might want to think about that. Almost everything I have ever heard any Atheist say about the Bible, blowing the horn of science as a defense, was flat out wrong and based upon an irrational hatred and ignorance and they haven't even begin to scratch the surface. They have said next to nothing on the dietary and sanitary regulations or the hydrologic cycle! If we use the Pythagoras as a point of reference Job was about 1000 years ahead of science. Its a joke.

You're a joke!

No, I follow it like I know what I am talking about and can discuss it as such which is the only real differance between you and me.

You should be proud ... you defend your scriptures like a true fundamentalist.
