Re: Article: Adam, Eve, Evolution, Theories, Problems

As you said... Interesting Article... Some thoughts... This is an interesting article, not typically seen in the mainstream press. It examines whether the idea of an actual Adam and Eve conflicts with current science - but are the theories in sync with Biblical theology? I think the Biblical Adam an...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

No... you find it a bit of nonsense because is lays bare the utter illogic of your argument that a sudden expansion of force and energy is somehow not an "explosion". There is a difference between an expansion vs explosion. In an explosion nothing is left behind. I didn't see that in any ...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

Do you know of any explosive expansion in the history of the universe that expended more force or more energy in a smaller amount of time than the Big Bang? If so, I'd love to hear what you think it is. I find that to be a bit of a nonsense question because it's based on the idea that if I am unawa...

Re: Christians, Q’Anon and Conspiracy Theories

Abe, Philip isn't much of a doer, he is more of a go along with the flow I disagree... Philip is a follower of Christ, and Philip's first loyalty is to Jesus Christ and God's Word. Too many Christians today get led astray from God's Word by cults of personality who abandon truth and God's Word. Phi...

Re: Christians, Q’Anon and Conspiracy Theories

We can know if people are telling the truth or not. We can tell if somebody has credibility or not. My biggest concern about Q and QAnon is that they don't tell the truth. As we have already discussed peviously in this forum, QAnon regularly peddles lies and conspiracy theories... sometimes dangero...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

See... Graphical timeline of the Big Bang https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_timeline_of_the_Big_Bang Humm….. Doesn’t look very violent to me.

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

Absolutely... Can you think of any "expansion" in the history of the universe that was more forceful and rapid than the Big Bang? How forceful and rapid was it, and how do you know this? See... Graphical timeline of the Big Bang https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphical_timeline_of_the_Big_...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

Do you believe the Big Bang was... a violent expansion in which energy is transmitted outward? A violent expansion? I have no reason to believe it was violent; do you? Absolutely... Can you think of any "expansion" in the history of the universe that was more forceful and rapid than the B...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

Your own article rebuts your assertion here. The first paragraph of your link acknowledges that scientific community often refers to the Big Bang as an explosion. "'The Big Bang was an expansion of space, not like an explosion at all, despite what countless books, videos, articles and statemen...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

An explosion is a violent expansion in which energy is transmitted outward. So it is accurate to describe the Big Bang as either an expansion or an explosion. There is a big difference between expansion vs explosion. If it is going to claim to speak for scientific observations and theory, the least...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

But I'm willing to give it another shot... Which specific claims from either the videos or the Wikipedia article do you think I do not accept? I'll be happy to let you know if I accept or reject those statements. Or some may simply be irrelevant because science simply doesn't know. *Your 2 videos c...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

However as demonstrated by the National Geographic and NASA links... The consensus position regarding the Big Bang theory does describe WHEN energy, time, and space were caused. Continuing to deny the scientific consensus doesn't somehow make your denial true. It just means that you disagree with t...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

Unless you agree that the Big Bang theory created all matter, energy, space, and time. No; I’m not the one who believes that. But I guess it might seem ridiculous to someone who dismisses the consensus of the scientific community regarding the Big Bang creating all matter, energy, space, and time. ...

Re: If God Made the Universe, Who Made God?

And we get back to your disagreement with the Big Bang theory again. If matter and energy were created by the Big Bang, then matter and energy did not exist before the Big Bang. I don’t disagree with the Big Bang theory, I disagree with your description of the Big Bang theory. Again the Big Bang th...
