    ~ MOD WARNING ~


    If Hollywood is investing in all of these Biblical movies, there must be a desire for God. AMEN!

    http://www.npr.org/2014/03/28/295254039/this-year-biblical-films-are-fruitful-and-multiplying

    There's a flood of biblical proportions this year in Hollywood: Noah, starring Russell Crowe, floats into theaters Thursday. It follows Son of God, another Bible-based movie released by 20th Century Fox. And later in 2014, we'll see Exodus, a 3-D epic based on the story of Moses from director Ridley Scott.

    Why so many Bible movies in 2014? "It just has to be that God is moving. There's no other explanation for it," says Son of God producer Mark Burnett.

    . A devout Christian, Burnett made his mark in secular television, with hit shows like Survivor and The Apprentice. In 2013, his miniseries The Bible drew an average of more than 11 million viewers to the History Channel. So Burnett and his wife, Roma Downey, decided to turn it into a film — partly, Downey says, because so many older Bible movies felt creaky and quaint

    It will be interesting to see exactly what Hollywood has planned to explain the impossibility of a Global Flood.

    Even if all existing Water Ice on the planet melted it would only result in a little more than 200 foot increase in global sea levels which would leave well over 90% of all the Continents on Earth above water.

    It would take a bit over a 5.5 Mile increase in Global Sea Levels to cover all land masses on Earth and this amount of water does not exist on Earth in any form and if this somehow MAGICALLY happened the result would be so much additional mass added to the planet that Earth would escape it's Solar Orbit and shoot off into space.

    As well this would increase Gravitic effect to the point the Moon would be pulled into the Earth and due to the Inverse Square Law of Gravity everything would weigh 7% to 9% more.

    As well our atmosphere would increase pressure to the point breathing air would be like breathing soup.

    Basically if this happened all life on Planet Earth would die.

    No, those "godless liberals" ;) in Hollywood take dramatic STORIES and turn them into MOVIES all the time.

    A "desire for god"??? And for violence, sex, excess, greed, car chases, explosions, disasters, cartoons about princesses and fish...

    """....Downey says, because so many older Bible movies felt creaky and quaint""""

    because the bible is creaky and quaint...


    Maybe Hollywood wants creaky quaint christian's money...

    Funny. I never said liberals are Godless. Projection?

    We're only six posts in and look at all the anger and head shaking. Interesting.

    Evolution both Quantum Evolution and Biological Evolution are PROVEN FACTS.

    95% of ALL CHRISTIAN'S accept this reality.

    You didn't answer my query. Where did the story of Noah come from?

    Evolution is a theory. That is a fact.

    I just posted the answer.

    The story was written specific to the Med flooding into the Black sea.

    It is IMPOSSIBLE even for 100,000 people to collect 2 of every species and go to all areas of the planet to get them.

    This is just a NICE STORY....it is not real but it was based on the Black Sea event.

    No...Evolution was labeled a FACT back in 1999 by the National Academy of Science.

    Even Pope John Paul II labeled Evolution as a FACT.

    No, you didn't and I never said you did but when other righties whine about Hollywood they usually call Hollywood people "godless liberals"...

    And, of course, you couldn't address anything else in my post.... :)


    Why do you, like most christians , always see "anger" in everything? People who do that usually are so steeped in anger, so surrounded by it, that that is all they can ever see...

    and why do they use that as an excuse to not address anything in a thread they created....? because they have nothing else?

    You dodged my question. You did so in order to avoid saying the obvious answer. I understand.

    It's obvious that you are looking for a fight. You put words in poster's mouths and are doing whatever you can to hijack the thread. I expected as much from those who mock God and the Bible. The point of my first post is non-confrontational and leaves out politics. Do you have a problem with that? Do you want to make this political? Interesting.

    How the HELL did I dodge your question!!??

    I answered it several times.

    The story of Noah is a FABLE based upon the event of the Black Sea Deluge occurring long ago.

    I asked where the story comes from. It comes from the Bible. Prove that is does not. And take a deep breath. You are out of control.

    That's funny. A group of scientists, who hate God, called the theory of evolution a fact.

    And the Pope? You mean a man of God is your source? What a hypocrite.

    No, I didn't put any words in anyone's mouth....

    I guess you posted so that all the responses would be , "Oh YES Mr. OP, you are correct."

    A silly premise will be met with opposition....if you can't take it....well...


    I mean, really, "people want god" because of movies? Is god at the theater? :)

    Unbelievable!!!

    The story comes from the Bible???

    And where did current Tax Laws come from...a 1040?? LOL!!!

    What you posted was the single most idiotic thing I have read recently.

    The story of Noah CAME from the MAN who made it up....even if it was based upon the Black Sea event.

    And you are entitled to your intolerant and hateful opinion.
    Deal with the fact that people want God, the Bible, Christ and prayer. Even Hollywood understands that. They wouldn't be making these movies otherwise.

    Actually he didn't. You just lacked the "smarts" or honesty to admit he DID answer your question...it just went zooming over you head.

    Pope John Paul II, on the 23rd of October, 1996, while speaking to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences plenary session at the Vatican, declared the evolutionary theories of Charles Darwin to be fact, tacitly acknowledging that man evolved from the apes, and reducing the biblical account of Genesis to that of mere fable!

    John Paul II

    John Paul II, Pontifical Academy of Sciences 1996

    John Paul II pleases the scientists at the Pontifical Institute by opening the door to evolution
    John Paul II strongly opened the door of the Church to change the doctrine of original sin. In a message to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences in 1996, he stated that the theory of evolution was more than just a hypothesis, that it had been buttressed by scientific studies and discoveries since Charles Darwin, and that evolution is compatible with the Christian faith.

    Evolution is BOTH a fact and a theory. Life on this planet has evoloved, it's been observed...that is a fact. The Theory of Evolution is the explanation of that fact via natural causes.

    You can remain ignorant all you wish but, you cannot remain right because you are not.

    You can respond any way you wish as I can also. So what's your point? You've decided to politicize this and demean my premise. I understand. That is how the Godless act. Are you incapable of actually constructing a counter-point absent the attacks? Are you unable to disagree without being disagreeable? I mean if you wish to be snide and angry, fine. And if I wish to point that out, that is also fine. :confusion:
