So creation of life is subject to those laws?
So evolution doesn't work?

Still confused.

Right. I think. But I still fail to see the point.

Actually I think that's the Law of Conservation of mass/energy. First law is something else that involves way to many incorrectly answered test problems. But yes, the creation of the universe breaks that law. However, the universe has its own Laws set by God, and I don't see why God would break them...

I think the entire thing is silly, personally. Besides all that, I'm very, very, VERY conservative in my approach to biblical studies. The Bible says what it means and means what it says. The only way, in my mind, to accurately "interpret" it is through a literal-historical-grammatical he...

Hermitville, I agree with colors. God's purpose is ultimately to express his Love through his creating power. Through his creation. It appears that some of our more fundamental beliefs are different, which may make this messy, but here goes. Again, I have to state that there are easier ways for God...

I wasn't discrediting Islam by describing their heaven....that was an example of quickly going off topic. ok If you think about it, the first "religion" was Christianity (it wasn't called Christianity until after Jesus died). Who do Christians worship? The God of the Bible, the God of Abr...

Genesis 32:28 tells us that Israel was born with Jacob. God was worshipped before that but the actual Religion was born after Jacob. Genesis 32:28 tells us, "Then he said, "Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven with God and with men, and have prevaile...

Abraham was the father of the Jewish nation. It was he that God told "I will surely bless you, and I will surely multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and as the sand that is on the seashore." (Gen. 22:17) God gave the Ten Commandments to Moses, but that was after the nation of Is...

Islam, isn't it a perversion of Christianity and Judaism (one God) dressed up to look good? The easiest seen problem is, if Islam was alwasy the only right religion...then why did it start only in the 8th century? Everyone else went to hell before that I'm guessing, instead of going to heaven and h...

Seems we have drifted a bit from the point though, so if we could please drift back that way... :D

Ahhhh...I hoped it was, but it was hard to tell. I like to use <ss> to denote sarcastic smiles around my jokes, but then I don't really expect all of you (err..."all ya'll" as is proper around here) to know that. Just something my friends and I use...its quite convenient sometimes since te...

oooo...color! ... sorry, I'm easily amused. Hope its readable...<shrug> Is it just me or is this like Muslim propaganda in a Christian forum. Not that I have a problem with it, I just didn't think that was the point of this thing. Just wondering if I'm interpreting correctly. I would be quite inter...

Perhaps if you rephrase my poor brain will grasp your intent.

Are you trying to say that Christians are saved and therefore do have to right to do whatever we want, sin or otherwise, since we will just be forgiven?
