Lenny5000: God didnt write the bible. It was men who did. Fallible men like you and me. |

Logicboy03: Please do your homework you can't create cold or darkness |
Re: How Do Christians Handle Miracles/magic In The Bible? by Nobody: 3:59pm On Oct 30, 2012 |
Lenny5000: Why should anything be taken out? But have you witnessed a miracle that could be verified? One should be skeptical of belief in the supernatural because there is hardly any evidence for such. The priest is one among many who realise that miracles are not so important than love as the message of Christ |

seyibrown:Common. These Christians are just too myopic to understand argument before jumping to conclusion for religion sentimental reasons. Indeed, I don't think you quite understand how we arrived at those calculations. The argument was on bible recorded timeline for the age of the earth. Which was well stated in the book to be about 6000 years, looking at the records of those different time in the written books. Now somebody in the name of Sadeiyare came up with a number of 1000 year to be a day for god as a fact to prove the validity of the book explanation for the age of the earth( we know the earth to be some billion years old).We accept this number and cross-examined his calculation with it based on what he told us as a Christian . But, we found out he failed woefully to prove it. Now, you come up with another excuse to defend his failure and your imaginary god. If a day is one thousand years and one thousand years is a day in the eye of god as meaning limitless then, we are talking about infinity. Which in essence doesn't have any backing. I would be interested in the infinity to be explain to me as you very well understand what you are talking about. Thank you! |

sadeiyare: I never use the word "create". I never talked about "darkness". It is a fact that you can generate a colder atmosphere with gases. |

@Sade Iyare I have to agree with you about not creating cold or darkness,@logic boy i tink u lost dat argument |

@Logic boy,generating cold by gasses is d same as removing heat from d foodstuffs...u grab? |

Ucheiwu007: @Sade Iyare I have to agree with you about not creating cold or darkness,@logic boy i tink u lost dat argumentIt also means they were not created and God never created them. It means they existed on their own and they were not God creation. |

No.. circular argument.. Hw does one create light or heat? |
Re: How Do Christians Handle Miracles/magic In The Bible? by ohioleh: 4:08pm On Oct 30, 2012 |
The wisdom of God is foolishness unto men...You did not create yourself,yet you think you know more than the father!i feel sorry for those arguing about the bible.Every word that has come out of God has never return void(without coming to pass).that is why the bible is the only book that can tell the future and will be so,even as old as it is...you talking about Paul!do you know his what jesus revealed to him,why jesus appeared to him ...please be careful of what you say about he bible,whatever you see in the bible whether some scriptures where lost or not..its a privilege/blessing.miracles are real,faith is the key,jesus is the saviour...its through faith that we are saved.believe!cheers |

Electromagnetic waves@Muskeeto....the absence of light gives darkness,d absence of heat gives cold...also wer der is light der is heat...and @all4naija i dont see how dat argument relate with wat i said |

Ucheiwu007: @Logic boy,generating cold by gasses is d same as removing heat from d foodstuffs...u grab? Wrong. Liquid nitrogen on your hand would freeze it. No heat needed |
Re: How Do Christians Handle Miracles/magic In The Bible? by Nobody: 4:11pm On Oct 30, 2012 |
musKeeto: No.. circular argument.. Look to the fundamental particles to understand the condition of how these entities called particles are evident in these phenomena. I think people here don't have basic idea about Quantum Mechanics for the basic reason for the argument on darkness( composed of dark matters and energies) and cold(which are of differences exist at various degrees or conditions of a particle). They keep saying shiits and thing the fairy called god exist. Well, it exist only in your mind! Isn't that delusion? |

Ucheiwu007: Electromagnetic waves@Muskeeto....the absence of light gives darkness,d absence of heat gives cold...also wer der is light der is heat...and @all4naija i dont see how dat argument relate with wat i said The problem with your claims about cold is that it is only half true. In a cold environment, you can generate more cold. If you expose your body to liquid nitrogen, does that mean that you became cold due to a loss of heat or a chemical reaction from a cryogenic sunbstance? |

It freezes your hand by removing heat from it.@logic boy |
Re: How Do Christians Handle Miracles/magic In The Bible? by wiegraf: 4:18pm On Oct 30, 2012 |
Total amount of energy in the universe is constant. You can't create heat. You can generate heat, and by that extension you can generate cold. |

@Logic boy,you really wont want me entring into science...am seriously speakin. Dey are concepts you wont undastand..or shud i just say dem so we wud see if u undastand dem or not? Besides dis thread is not a scientific thread..just open up a scientific thread and inform me so we can talk beta dere. |

Ucheiwu007: It freezes your hand by removing heat from it.@logic boy Epic fail At atmospheric pressure, liquid nitrogen boils at −196 °C (77 K; −321 °F) and is a cryogenic fluid which can cause rapid freezing on contact with living tissue. When appropriately insulated from ambient heat, liquid nitrogen can be stored and transported, for example in vacuum flasks. Here, the very low temperature is held constant at 77 K by slow boiling of the liquid, resulting in the evolution of nitrogen gas. Depending on the size and design, the holding time of vacuum flasks ranges from a few hours to a few weeks. Liquid nitrogen can easily be converted to a solid by placing it in a vacuum chamber pumped by a rotary vacuum pump.[2] Liquid nitrogen freezes at 63 K (−210 °C; −346 °F). Despite its reputation, liquid nitrogen's efficiency as a coolant is limited by the fact that it boils immediately on contact with a warmer object, enveloping the object in insulating nitrogen gas. This effect, known as the Leidenfrost effect, applies to any liquid in contact with an object significantly hotter than its boiling point. More rapid cooling may be obtained by plunging an object into a slush of liquid and solid nitrogen rather than liquid nitrogen alone. |

all4naija: Common. These Christians are just to myopic to understand argument before jumping to conclusion for religion sentimental reasons. Indeed, I don't think you quite understand how we arrive at those calculations. If you don't know everything, then you don't have a basis for your scientific calculations. You still can't see that I am not arguing but just telling you that christains are only operating in faith which you will always conclude to be foolishness ( but GOD foolishness is wiser than the wisest of men) |

@Sade Iyare,I understand wat ur sayin bout d faith stuff @Logic boy,it wasnt an epic fail,it was no fail at all....btw,wat level in the Uni/college are you? |
Re: How Do Christians Handle Miracles/magic In The Bible? by Ucheiwu007(m): 4:37pm On Oct 30, 2012 |

So,u ar a business guy dat likes science......hmmmmmmm |
Re: How Do Christians Handle Miracles/magic In The Bible? by Nobody: 4:59pm On Oct 30, 2012 |
Ucheiwu007: So,u ar a business guy dat likes science......hmmmmmmm Just a business guy that puts science before religion. Adam and Eve useless before Evolution |
