    Actually you are not paying attention to the bad html code at the top of your posting. Correct that html code prior to posting and the thread will straighten itself out provided someone else does not maliciously or carelessly alter the code again.

    No go back and re-read what I wrote. My answer was "Yes". Then I asked a question. Go back and read it again. I can see why you guys read so much out of the bible. You see sentences and statements that arent even there. Even when the words are written in black and white you dont see them as they actually are written.

    So you live by fear and have faith.
    Rather than live by faith and have no fear.

    Quote Posted by Giftedone:

    1) God did "intentionally" kill the innocent.

    Your claim "no one is innocent" in order to deny the obvious does not work.

    If we are allowed to kill people who are not innocent (and clearly God allows this because he suggests the death penalty for those who are not innocent) .. and no one is innocent as you claim .. then we are allowed to kill everyone.
    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    No, you have it all wrong. When God kills people He has every right to do so since we are His creation, He owns everyone of us and when He kills He is doing it strictly for punishment of sins which is justifiable.

    However, it doesn't mean that we have this right to kill as God the Creator has.

    He has given us laws to live by, such as the Ten Commandments. We as humans do not have the moral authority to just kill anyone as we please, that would be cold blooded murder and breaking one of God's commandment which is "Thou shalt not kill"

    Imagine if there was no God, then we naughty humans would be free to do anything as we please. There are multitudes of people living right now who don't believe God exists and so they live their lives as if anything goes with them. They have no morals, no caring for fellow human beings, to them the whole world revolves around them. In their twisted world it's me me me and screw everyone else!

    Come Judgment Day Almighty God, the Creator of the universe and everything that exists will deal with these types of people.

    Man killed Jesus, aka "God". And don't forget, Satan and his rebel angels are fighting a cosmic war against God and his angels with the intent to kill all of them.

    The basic rule is that you can kill anyone or anything if they don't kill you first. If God couldn't be killed what would be the point of Satan's rebellion? And since Satan and his angels have rebelled we know that God can't simply wish them away by thinking about it. That means that some degree of actual physical action is required. So how was God able to simply will everything into existence but he can't simply will Satan and his angels dead? Isn't that weird?

    Quote Posted by Mjolnir:

    How do you know? Because they said so? Humans have free will. That includes Moses, and the Apostles, and anyone else who may have had a hand in compiling the bible. That means they can screw up, and it means that can work against God. You aren't trusting God when you take the Bible as absolute truth. You're trusting humans. Doesn't necessarily mean there isn't a God, or that he didn't try to influence the Bible, but given the sinful nature of humanity, he couldn't have guaranteed that it be perfect.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    You underestimate the power of the Holy Spirit.

    So we are trusting God when it comes to the Holy Bible, after all the Holy Bible is the Devinely Inspired Word of God.

    Actually bull feces is quite a bit different than Witchcraft. Have you ever been around a farm that raised cattle and had a bull or two on the property? Have you ever been around a group that practices Witchcraft? Trust me, there is a world of difference.

    Quote Posted by Giftedone:

    the evidence is that the Catholic Church and even the Pope was complicit in killing of Jews in WWII .. Especially the genocide committed by Catholic Croats against Jewish and Orthadox Serbs.

    Sad but true .. there were even Clergy proven guilty of crimes against humanity after the
    war...
    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    When Judgment Day comes Almighty God, the Creator of the universe and everything that exists will justly and fairly sort everything out and put people accordingly to where they belong in the eternity.

    I would not at all be surprised if the Catholic Church and even the Pope were indeed guilty of heinous crimes during the 2nd World War.

    After all, we humans, and I mean all of us regardless if one believes or doesn't believe in God, have this sinful nature in us and are all prone to the destructive power of sin.

    Biblical scholars do not deny the Exodus they are still in the process of searching the answer.

    Are you assuming that there were 600,000 Hebrew warriors where did that number came from and only 600 Egyptian soldiers or chariots? Chariots are consider a battle tank of that time.

    The Hebrews have been slaves for centuries they are not soldiers or train soldiers they have every reason to fear a well organize and professional army that have traumatised and stigmatised them for centuries the Hebrews are just starting to learn to be soldiers.

    Science agree that such catastrophic flooding or weather condition can destroy the planet earth the question is, was the Noah's flood consider to be as such? Scientist would say no but this dose not mean it did not happen where Noah was situated. Now, you will insist that the Bible said "worldwide" so it should be worldwide then? Consider this Jesus said "my kingdom is not of this world" the "worldwide" flooding could be referring only to Noah and his world which is the Mesopotamia region. I have posted about this and I like to add, God chosen people were the Hebrews this would mean in the meantime the world revolves around them until such time that the whole world is Christianized.

    Yes there were continuous civilization in other parts of the world, in Central America tribes were at constant war, same in Asia and Africa life was very harsh it was survival of the fittest cannibalism, human sacrifice, head hunting, etc. But in the meantime the world or the story of the Bible is concentrated with the chosen people the Hebrews. You see when the Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians or Romans were building their empire waging wars against other civilization the Bible did not touch their history the only time the Bible touches them is when it involves the chosen people the Hebrews.

    So, Noah's flood that is why it is called Noah's flood is the world of Noah the Mesopotamia region.

    Yes every living things were destroyed the things that were of the known world to Naoh.

    We learn that God is merciful that is spite of men's evilness God decided never to destroy humankind any more. While God destroy the people within Noah's world He showed mercy to those outside of Noah's world.

    Adam and Eve, I think that would be 6000 years ago?
