“Or that their way of knowing things is the only valid ways of knowing things.

They scoff at divine revelation as if it’s an inferior or totally invalid way of learning things, but divine revelation taught us things thousands of years before humans learned about them through their own means.

In the end, the result is the same, the knowledge is gained. The advantage that divine revelation has is that it results in far less wasted time and effort. If the unbeliever wants to waste his time spinning his wheels, that’s his affair, but to condemn others who don’t want to join his exercise in futility, well gets back to the arrogance of the evo.”

Boy, will they pick apart a lot on this post... and gee, do I love your logic.

You put it in perspective in a way I’ve never reasoned it. I have no problem with those guys believing differently or stating what they believe on this forum or any other. It’s the sheer arrogance that they know more than the Bible and God and that WE are the ones who are misled that gets me in the debate. And then they go back to DC and whine because we “attack” them on FR. WAAHHHH!!!!

Simply amazing.

You bet your bippy it did- it spoke of pleaides (sp?), Orion, moons not visible to hte naked eye, planets not visible or known, that hte world was a sphere, talked about geological events that were not known to men, spoke of biological events, etc, long before sceince came on the scene- it prophesied of events 1000’s of years before they happened, and these events came 100% true, IN DETAIL (unlike hte silly broad generalizations of ‘psychics, who are only right approx 40% of hte time, and are so obscure, that they could be interpeted any which way- even a broken clock is right twice a day)

While hte bible isn’t a ‘science book’ per se- it sure did verify scientific finds in many instances 1000’s of years before they were even ‘discovered’ by ‘modern science’- not bad for a book that is supposed to be so ‘riddled with error due to translations mistakes’ huh?
