KingEbukasBlog: This is what I have to say 1. On the biblical view of Satan. The Jews view Satan as a tempter who is only doing God s will. They have never viewed him as the enemy. If you read the old Testament especially Isaiah 14 you would see that it never talks of Satan. It talks of the king Isaiah 14v6 Those who see you will gaze at you and consider you, saying, Is this the man who made the earth tremble, who shook kingdoms? It makes no reference at all to Satan. Christians blame Satan for evil but the one who should be blamed is their God I form the light and create darkness, I make peace and I create evil ; I am the Lord, Who does all these things. Isaiah 45 verses 7 The author of 2peter made it clear that the earth was flooded with water. Which is obviously the mythical story of Noah. 1 corinthians 15 vs 45 Thus it is written, The first man Adam became a living being (an individual personality); the last Adam (Christ) became a life-giving Spirit [restoring the dead to life It is very clear that Adam was the first man according to the Bible. . “For since by a man came death, by a man also came the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all will be made alive” ( 1 Corinthians 15:21-22 ). How could men and nations before Adam be destroyed if before Adam there was no death. You quote Jeremiah out of context. It even has nothing to do with a pre adamic world. Jere 26 I looked, and behold, the fruitful land was a desert, and all its cities were laid waste before the Lord’s presence, before His fierce anger. Jeremiah 4 vs 26 Genesis says - God had to create land by parting the waters.why would Isaiah see a desert if all that covered the world was water. Read the whole chapter and u would understand that it had nothing to do with a pre adamic world but rather with Israel. Even majority of bible scholars have dis agreed with this strange teaching of a pre adamic world. Stop quoting verses out of context. |

urahara:Rabbits reingest partially digested food just like ruminants even though they arnt ruminants. Would it be wrong to think that a roughly 3500 years old definition has the same meaning in totality as a mordern, screened defination. Why are you desperate?

He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing. Job 26:7 Hey, it seems some primitive men have been to outer space before us. Since there was no spacecraft, They probably walked to the edge of the earth and looked underneath to confirm that its was suspended in space Lmao Seems Bro Isaac was right afterall “We account the scriptures of God to be the most sublime philosophy.

So help me . . . . . . . Toothfairy!! you were expecting GOD? You go old Leggo :- [b]ISAAC NEWTON- He lived during the time when Science was getting interesting. He was a genius, alright. Now, you appealed to the mentality of Newton to make your point & even said 'Be like say some nairalanders know pass bro Isaac'. First, you committed a fallacy- Fallacy of appeal to authority. Isaac Newton supporting your view doesn't make it right. One sin there for you. You betcha beg God!!BEG!! BEG!! Second, there were some things that Newton didn't know, that we know now. Take the moon exploration for example. As a trademark of humans, Newton ascribed the WEIRD FINDINGS TO SOME 'BIBLE STORIES'. At this juncture, kindly point out ANY THING SCIENTIFIC that Newton ascribed to the bible, & I'd burst them. Newton knew NADA about Pluto, knew virtually NADA about Mars- Didn't even know water is on mars. These things account for the ascription of Newton to the ACCURACY of the bible. Check!! when you point out where Newton think the bible is right SCIENTIFICALLY SPEAKING, TELL ME. I'D TEACH YOU. Again, Newton might be smart, but we of this age are smarter *Drops mike*[/b] |

urahara:Lmao, Maybe you didnt even go through the trouble of reading the link you posted. Rabbits definately reingest partially digested food, just like ruminants although in a different habit I didnt say anything different. If you read my post well, i said; winner01: (The link you posted) Wikipedia also agrees with me by saying; Rabbits reingest their own droppings (rather than chewing the cud as do cows and many other herbivores) to digest their food further and extract sufficient nutrients. Read more on; Diet and eating habits in the link you posted So you see my friend, caecotropes are partially digested, and rabbits reingest them. Last i checked ruminants do something very similar but in a different feeding habit.

winner01: Cud is a bolus of semi-degraded food regurgitated from the reticulorumen of a ruminant to its mouth. Cud and caecotropes are not the same. The Bible says they chew their cud. It doesn't say they chew any caecotropes. If you say that reingest partially digested food is same as chewing cud. Then dogs chew the cud because they reingest vomit. Cud goes from stomach to mouth. Caecotropes are elected from an us. |

urahara:Cud is partially digested food, Caecotropes are also partially digested food. You cant beat this. Yeah, the Bible did not say "chew the caecotropes" just like it didnt say the earth is the third planet from the Sun but somehow managed to know that the earth is suspended in space. I dont know what you are looking for, but you need to start looking in the right places. The Bible is not a science textbook Did you expect the Bible to go into further biology, how did primitive men know that hares chew partially digested food This Cud we are talking about, dont you think a 3500 year old definition will be much more wider than a mordern ultra specific one. Hare was hare then, now we have discovered different species even plants. Even Weeds now have a different definition. Stop being desperate and start being objective.

urahara:These statements show that you have trown away your reasoning and objectivity. I thought your mind was receptive to answers Seems its already made up. No matter how much you try to bury the truth, it will always come alive. "The incongruity of the BIBLE with the age of its birth; its freedom from earthly mixtures; its original, unborrowed, solitary greatness; the suddenness with which it broke forth amidst the general gloom; these, to me, are strong indications of its Divine descent. I cannot reconcile them with a human origin"- William Ellery Channing |

winner01: So your God did not see it befitting to use the Hebrew word for dung which is gelel but to saw it fitting to us e the Hebrew word for cud. Literal Hebrew reading reads as to make cud ascend or to bring up cud. You Christians are so funny and intellectually dis honest. When u see errors in ur book of pseudo science you decide when a word has multiple meanings. You spin the truth so you can believe in your fairytale. |

urahara:Dung are waste products, caecotropes are partially digested food. So the Bible certainly knows exactly what it meant. What exactly do you seek "There came a time in my life when I doubted the divinity of the Scriptures, and I resolved as a lawyer and a judge I would try the Book as I would try anything in the courtroom, taking evidence for and against. It was a long, serious and profound study and using the same principles of evidence in this religious matter as I always do in secular matters, I have come to the decision that the BIBLE is a supernatural Book, that it has come from GOD, and that the only safety for the human race is to follow its teachings"- Salmon P. Chase |
Re: How Did Genesis' Writer Gain Access To Such Accurate Scientific Information by urahara(m): 11:04pm On Nov 20, 2015 |
winner01: Why could dung not be used as a general word for caecotropes. Any way Christians love saying fallacies Any way I think we know who they got this from behold ladies and gentlemen I give u what has been dubbed as the most embarrassing chapter in the bible Matthew 24 verse 34 3 While He was seated on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately and said, Tell us, when will this take place, and what will be the sign of Your coming and of the end (the completion, the consummation) of the age? 4 Jesus answered them, Be careful that no one misleads you [deceiving you and leading you into error]. 5 For many will come in (on the strength of) My name [appropriating the name which belongs to Me], saying, I am the Christ (the Messiah), and they will lead many astray. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars; see that you are not frightened or troubled, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in place after place; 8 All this is but the beginning [the early pains] of the birth pangs [of the intolerable anguish]. 9 Then they will hand you over to suffer affliction and tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for My name’s sake. 10 And then many will be offendedand repelled and will begin to distrust and desert [Him Whom they ought to trust and obey] andwill stumble and fall away and betray one another and pursue one another with hatred. 11 And many false prophets will rise up and deceive and lead many into error. 12 And the love of the great body of people will grow cold because of the multiplied lawlessness andiniquity, 13 But he who endures to the end will be saved. 14 And this good news of the kingdom (the Gospel) will be preached throughout the whole world as a testimony to all the nations, and then will come the end. 15 So when you see the appalling sacrilege [the abomination that astonishes and makes desolate], spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the Holy Place—let the reader take notice and ponderand consider and heed [this]— 16 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains; 17 Let him who is on the housetop not come down and go into the house to take anything; 18 And let him who is in the field not turn back to get his overcoat. 19 And alas for the women who are pregnant and for those who have nursing babies in those days! 20 Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great tribulation (affliction, distress, and oppression) such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now—no, and never will be [again]. 22 And if those days had not been shortened, no human being would endure and survive, but for the sake of the elect (God’s chosen ones) those days will be shortened. 23 If anyone says to you then, Behold, here is the Christ (the Messiah)! or, There He is!—do not believe it. 24 For false Christs and false prophets will arise, and they will show great signs and wonders so as to deceive and lead astray, if possible, even the elect (God’s chosen ones). 25 See, I have warned you beforehand. 26 So if they say to you, Behold, He is in the wilderness (desert)—do not go out there; if they tell you, Behold, He is in the secret places or inner rooms—do not believe it. 27 For just as the lightning flashes from the east and shines and is seen as far as the west, so will the coming of the Son of Man be. 28 Wherever there is a fallen body (a corpse), there the vultures (or eagles) will flock together. 29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not shed its light, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mournand beat their breasts and lament in anguish, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory [in brilliancy and splendor]. 31 And He will send out His angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather His elect (His chosen ones) from the four winds, [even] from one end of the universe to the other. 32 From the fig tree learn this lesson: as soon as its young shoots become soft and tender and it puts out its leaves, you know of a surety that summer is near. 33 So also when you see these signs,all taken together, coming to pass, you may know of a surety that He is near, at the very doors. 34 Truly I tell you, this generation (the whole multitude of people living at the same time, in a definite, given period) will not pass away till all these thingstaken together take place. Matthew 24 |

urahara:I guess you have nothing more to say. Its funny how you expect the Bible to use the exact word caecotropes. The writer realized that cud is partially digested food material, and used the word cud. A lot has happened 3500 years after, we have discovered that rabbits dont fall under ruminant or non ruminants but still reingest partially digested food called caecotrophes. Its funny you want that exact word to appear in the Bible. You can troll as much as you like, your headache. You can also try to help your friends answer my questions. seems they have all run out of answers. “The gospel is not a book; it is a living being, with an action, a power, which invades every thing that opposes its extension, behold! It is upon this table: This book, surpassing all others. I never omit to read it, and every day with some pleasure.”- Napoleon , Emperor of the French (1804-1814), 1769-1821 |
