    Yeah, sometimes I wish there really was a real Abraham who longed to see Jesus' day.

    It is methodology.

    They are a small few of unorthodox who aren't taken very seriously. Such unorthodoxy creates several theological crisis. It effects prophecy, the fall of man, and creation. But when you interpret scripture by pseudo science then calling Genesis a parable is what you get.

    I'm not anti-science, I'm pro-God.

    There is "science"...

    and there is "science (or "knowledge") falsely so-called"- 1 Timothy 6:20

    O Timothy, guard the deposit entrusted to you. Avoid the irreverent babble and contradictions of what is falsely called "knowledge," for by professing it some have swerved from the faith.

    In all honesty, I don't have any children yet, much less a wife. You almost make it sound like I have to choose between God or the doctor's office. If I am sick, I actually won't go to the doctor's office. I generally let the sickness run its course. Normally when I go to the doctor, I'm usually there to get a doctor's note for work. Unless the pain & discomfort is just too unbearable. I don't put my faith in other human beings. Doctors have been known to be wrong many times before.

    Anytime I have ever watched a documentary about biblical events on Histroy Channel, Dicovery Channel, or The Learning Channel the scientists are always trying to disprove everything about what we have been taught. For one to be a scientist like that, you'd almost have to be an atheist.

    I am going thru the website www.answersingenesis.com, and would REALLY like some feedback from our more Bible-based Christians on the board on that site. I am enjoying the lectures.

    Evolution is as much a matter of faith as any other view based on faith, except it does not have good evidence. Pro-evolutionists interpret data in light of their belief in evolution.

    My son read Michael Denton's book, Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, in the 8th grade and won a debate in English class (they were teaching debate tactics). The kids voted on who presented the best case - this was in a very liberal school here in the DC area where evolution is taught as fact.

    Btw, Denton, as far as I know, is either an agnostic or atheist.

    And it is not science since it cannot be reproduced.

    Incorrect, and just another creationist chestnut, showing a total superficial understanding of what constitutes scientific inquiry. From HERE:

    I think it is very good, and a lot to learn there. Kin Ham was with Dr. Morris at ICR for years and then went on to AIG.

    I’m looking forward to seeing Expelled and the overwhelming bias against creation exposed!


    Evolution is just a theory.


    Although I do believe a few people on the BB may have come from apes… :tongue3:


    Answers in Genesis is an excellent resource!!!!! If anyone is near Petersburg, Kentucky check out their Creation Museum! I highly recommend a subscription to their magazine, Answers!
