Believing in creationism is a sin

RE: Believing in creationism is a sin
(March 21, 2013 at 12:02 am)Godschild Wrote: It was not incestuous until God said it was, so from the time of Adam and Eve's children till the time of Moses when the law of no marrying between brothers and sisters was given, it was not wrong. So with these facts from scripture, why do you believe God would wait so long to make this practice sinful. Sure the word is icky, it's been an ingrained thought for more than 3000 years.

There is no rational way to respond to this, because it's not a rational thought. It's mere surrender: "Even though every last part of these acts lines up perfectly with the definition of incest, because god hadn't said anything about it it's fine."

This is not argumentation, and hence requires no answer.

Quote:The people I was referring to were the people of Adam and Eve's time to the time of Moses, they were unable to understand the function of most organs in the body at that time, now how were they to understand a part of the body they could not see.

You have an omnipotent and all knowing god. You might not be able to envision a way for the people of yore to understand these things, but your god can, by definition. The fact that he didn't either means you're right and god is a dictatorial idiot, or you're wrong and god meant no such thing.

Quote: God did make it clear to the people of Moses time, He said no more marrying between brothers and sisters. They actually got it, they knew for some reason God was putting an end to the practice, so they trusted He knew best.

Just like the flood that relegated them to the practice in the first place...

Quote:You can't be serious, God the creator of man would obviously know the entire make up of the human body. I know genes are not mentioned in scripture, but it would be ignorant of me to believe God did not know everything about the human body He created, there are things we have no idea about that to God is child's play. So I'm not making things up, I'm using the brain God gave me.

Yeah, assuming we just take your basic assumption that Adam and Eve's genes were perfect at face value, something I refuse to do. That's not in the bible, there's no reason to think that Adam and Eve were any different from any other person, and beyond that, you can't even provide a definition of what "perfect genes" would entail. What do you even mean, by that?

Quote:I do, God created Adam and Eve and said that all was good at the end of the sixth day, if the genes of Adam and Eve were not perfect then God could not have said all is good. When you start out with parents with perfect genes then those perfect genes would be passed on to their children. With sin corrupting the creation from that point on the genes would degrade.

I think the major flaw with your statement here is that Adam and Eve turned out to be not so perfect pretty soon after they were created. I seem to recall sin, getting ejected from a garden, and disobeying god's word. So... not so perfect. And who's to say that Adam and Eve's genes weren't rendered imperfect when they were thrown out of Eden?

I mean hell, I have exactly the same level of scriptural reference to back up my claim as you do yours!
