Terrible lizards trapped by terrible Flood
Tas Walker
A trail of fossilized claw marks found in northern Spain reveals the desperation of animals struggling to escape drowning in the Genesis Flood.
...
That the footprints were preserved at all indicates the dinosaurs were engulfed by abnormal conditions. Today footprints are quickly obliterated, especially on a beach or in a strong current. But in the sandstone in Spain even the delicate features of the scratches were preserved, which means that sediment covered the tracks (and the ripple marks) soon after the dinosaur struggled past...

Noah. I forgot my literal bible readings. sorry...Just a question too..do you know what the Christian bible is? What language(S) it was written in? Aramaic, Greek, Hebrew? or did God come down and write it himself? [excerpt]The Old Testament is written in Hebrew, the New in Greek.
Did you know the handy fact that in Jesus time the majority of the population, including Jesus was illiterate? [excerpt]Silence, fool!
And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions.
And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers.
Luke 2:46,27
¶ And Jesus returned in the power of the Spirit into Galilee: and there went out a fame of him through all the region round about.
And he taught in their synagogues, being glorified of all.
¶ And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.
And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,
The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
And he closed the book, and he gave [it] again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
Luke 4:14-20
How come Noah didn’t take any dinosaurs (other than birds) onto he Ark?
lets leave religion where it belongs - at home and in church. keep it to yourself. [link]
The Old Testament was not written in Hebrew. It was translated into Hebrew from Aramaic and other earlier languages. FAIL NUMBER 1 [excerpt]Which would be your Strawman #1
Stone Tablets written by the finger of God? PROOF? Evidence? or just your faith. FAIL NUMBER 2 [excerpt]You don't learn very quick do you.
¶ And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.
Exodus 31:18
Where, pray tell, does it say that he was literate. Stood up for to read IS NOT how The ARAMAIC is translated. It was translated as he stood to be read to in several languages and the meaning is he heard the reading. FAIL NUMBER 3. [excerpt]The Greek word ἀναγινώσκω is not a word that is used to describe what an illiterate person does with written text.
He was shown a passage. Her did not read nor was it implied that he read the passage. According to the Bible. FAIL NUMBER 4 [excerpt]All coming from a guy who can't keep Moses and Noah straight.
Not according to what you’d typed, LOL!
Since the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, this old liberal high criticism does not hold water. They (the DSS) predate the Peshitta Targumim by hundreds of years (in some cases) and are written primarily in Hebrew. And every Old Covenant Book is represented with the exception of Esther. They can be reckoned as contemporary to, or older than the earliest extant Aramaic texts.
The DSS make the oldest extent copies of the Old Testament Hebraic, *not* Aramaic.
Undoubtedly some parts of the Old Testament were Aramaic, those parts written in Babylon particularly, and the Hebrews proclaim that heritage. But there is no evidence that the entire Old Testament "was translated into Hebrew from Aramaic and other earlier languages."
[JayRockin91:] Where, pray tell, does it say that he was literate. Stood up for to read IS NOT how The ARAMAIC is translated. It was translated as he stood to be read to in several languages and the meaning is he heard the reading. (emphasis mine)
I would really like to see some evidence for an Aramaic origin for the Books of Luke/Acts. The idea that an educated gentile physician, writing a letter to a Grecian man residing in Greece, would write that letter in Aramaic is simply ludicrous to assume.
To further the absurdity of the thought, simply read the two books, where Luke will be found translating Hebrew and Aramaic names and locations for his dear Greek friend, Theophilus.
Every extant manuscript of note is in fact, in the Greek, and the whole notion is simply speculation made of whole cloth.
@Fichori:
I have no argument with you here, FRiend Fichori, rather that I agree with you. I just could not leave these points untested.
Looks like I missed out on all the fun.
I’m not sure whether our departed retread friend confused Noah and Moses, or whether it was a setup for that old joke about “how many animals did Moses put on the Ark.”
So, it was either stupidity, or junior high school level, possibly both. Beavis & Butthead time again, heheh heheh.
Two newbs posting to each other like best buds.
What were your previous screennames? (not that it matters much any more to one of you from the looks of it)
Amendment I
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
So, Danny 7878787, why don't you take your fascist religion oppressing ideas and take a hike? This is a free country for the time being. If you don't like seeing religion practiced freely as the Constitution permits, move somewhere else that suits you better.
Did his post get pulled or something?
Did all of this guy’s posts get pulled?
That’s great. They claim to be conservatives but sat there captivated by there America hating loony professors, took in their knowledge, and apply it as scripture.
That jayrockin fella’s comments must have been mind numbingly stupid beyond comprehension if they were taken off and yours left on.
“Silence, fool!”
LOL. Beautiful response.
He did. Lizards grow their entire life which means Dinosaurs were probably really old lizards. Maybe when they got off the boat, when Noah was drunk and naked, they killed the ones they didn’t like. Maybe there are some still alive today.
