You're statements are simplistic and revealing in their ignorance.

For example:

"Christians who actually believe that God made the heavens and the earth and all that in them is in 6 days."

The "6 day" "young-earth" interpretation is NOT literal and NOT accepted by the majority of the denominations and many of the most respected defenders of the Bible. It's a theory that is based on myths, misconceptions, contrasdictions, personal crusades, poor science, superfical biblical readings, etc.

Young-earthism is NOT Biblical

"Who's attacking other Christians right now?"

You are. How exactly is pointing out the obvious backwardness of AIG attacking Christians? Their bizarre behavior is a documented fact.

"What those you attack believe is the Bible."

No, they believe in a watered-down Bible, misconstrued and force-fitted onto personal beliefs that have no basis in reality. When people like them destory the credibility of the Bible by their misbelief, they need corrected.

So keep on blindly following the anti-Christian rhetoric of hillbilly scholars like Ken Ham. Go ahead and keep on turning people away from the Bible.

Or maybe try studying the Bible on your own instead of having other people do it for you.

Discuss the issues all you want but do not make it personal.

For example: "Christians who actually believe that God made the heavens and the earth and all that in them is in 6 days."

So you don't believe that? Did not God write these words with his own hand upon the stone tablets:

Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy. Six days shalt thou labor, and do all thy work: But the seventh day is the sabbath of the LORD thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates: For in six days the LORD made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the LORD blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it. (Exodus 20:8-11 KJV)

You want to deny what the Lord himself wrote? And you claim that I am the one who does not believe the bible? That is what the Bible says. Simply put, do you believe it? If not then who is the bible believer and who is the bible denier?

No, they believe in a watered-down Bible, misconstrued and force-fitted onto personal beliefs that have no basis in reality. When people like them destory the credibility of the Bible by their misbelief, they need corrected.

The credibility of the Bible is not dependent upon people believing it. The Bible is credible because it is the word of God. I expect people to find reasons not to believe it. It is in the nature of man to disbelieve the Bible. Nobody is going to perish because Ken Ham believes in a literal 6 day creation. God himself said he did it in 6 days. Who are you to argue with Him?

Or maybe try studying the Bible on your own instead of having other people do it for you.

You are the one who needs to have ancillary materials to prove your point. I just quoted scripture. Scripture says God did it in 6 days. I don't need Ken Ham to tell me that. It was written by the hand of God. You are the one who needs people to tell you that the Lord didn't really mean it when he said he did it.

As far as the flood goes, again you are relying upon ancillary documents and evidence to prove your point. The Bible is quite clear that all mountains that were under the heavens were covered and that all flesh that was under the heavens was destroyed. Now if you can find me a spot on the earth that is not under the heavens, then I'll admit that perhaps that particular area was not covered by the flood.

Go ahead and keep on turning people away from the Bible.

I just direct them to it. It is God's job to make them believe it. Or have you decided that God needs your help for that one too? If someone has a heart for God, they will believe the Bible. If they don't, they'll look for excuses to deny it's truth.
