If the bible isn't true and I believe it's not, it has some historicity to it but not true. My question is this, how did those goat herders in the desert know the center of the earth was hot? I know it's not Hell but they believed it was and it is the hottest place around in the center of the earth.

An odd question
|
Do you think the Bible predicts Earth's molten core?
I'm not exactly sure what you're asking.
Well it clearly does, it says the center of the earth is hot
They thought hell was Earth's center, not quite a molten core.
Not exactly the same thing.
But they were right about it being hot is my point
Does it though?
I think it says something about certain folks "burning in fiery Gehenna" or something like that. But I don't think it says anything about Earth's core being molten. The idea of "hell" being underground is a Greek idea that inchwormed its way into the Christian mythos. Can I ask: what's your opinion of Matthew 7:15? I think that verse says something factual... about a certain kind of person... what's your opinion on that verse, dudeabides? RE: An odd question

However, conceptually, if asked whether whatever was under us was hot or cold, you have a 50/50 chance of getting it right.

Volcanic activity isn't exactly a new phenomena.
If molten rock comes outta the ground it's not unreasonable for an observer to make the assumption that it's hot down there......
How did the greeks know that a god who lives in a mountain would run a forge?

The Bible also says that the damned will be cast into ‘a lake of fire’. Should we presume there’s a lake at the Earth’s core? Why not a cute little B&B, or canoe rentals?
