Read it last year. It had some good parts, for sure, including the idea that people should work for what they want, stand up for their principles (good ones), do well on anything they attempt. What I didn't like is the way it associated marriage with the other side. At least, marriages that...

And it seems like the doctrine of immutability is cemented in the idea of timelessness

Why are you in a science thread if you don't want to talk about science?

Versions of Christianity? Just 1. Interpretations of the evidence are sometimes different, but the evidence remains steadfast.

All of this applies to us as well. We listen to experts, who likely know more than we do. There is evidence to back up our claims. We actually HAVE researched further. We have access to people that interpret Greek and Hebrew. They don't strike us as people who misrepresent their work. And our...

5000 years ago? 50,000 years ago? 500,000 years ago? 5,000,000 years ago? Do you see that you have a firmed exactly what I said? That you take the word of someone that has no capacity to provide the information? Yes, there are. How does that matter in this conversation? Which of those papers...

Then, you have no idea whether I've been misinformed or not. While you merely take by faith what someone tells you. Perhaps you are the one who has been misinformed.

How fast are continental plates moving today? How fast did they move in the past? Exactly what am I misinformed about?

Just had another one a half hour ago.

Exactly--because of Adam's sin, ultimately. No, just that death is a result of sin (sin's wages). If disease and illness lead to death without sin, but they are the result of Adam's sin, then you are agreeing with at least some of those who hold to an "original sin" construct.

I made an error in my post, but he helped me correct it. It's way too slow, presumes that the way things are today is the way they've always been.

Maybe, but you guys have to deal with a similar problem, since even infants die physically. Not really a Catholic-unique problem. If you stopped here, I think we would all be in agreement on these 2 points, including Catholics. Leave out "infant", and the agreement probably continues, at...

Absolutely. If the standard for time doesn't exist, how can you measure by that standard. But we do have days from day one (pun intended). And there weren't millions of years on the earth before the sun, only a few days. But days were measured against earth rotations (presumably) compared to a...

Corrected in post. thanks for the notice!

You are evidence for God. Language, and thus this forum, is evidence for God. DNA, which is encoded information, is evidence for God. Talk about denying reality.

Compared to what, a guy who can't put two sentences together, hits on little girls, and is in office mainly to fund his family's get rich quick schemes? But I guess it wasn't him that conned the American people, rather the MS Media and the Democrat party. In what way? I would agree if you are...

A year is defined as the earth going around the sun one time. No earth and no sun, no years.

Can't be 13.8 billion years old if the earth is only 4+billion years old.

You mean when the white people were handing out brains?

I'm still assessing, bit the only means I have is through other people's reports of him, or how I see him act or hear him speak in news blurbs. Almost none is first-hand, so not "on my own". If you carelessly say "on my own", yes--that's what that means. Yes, but that is the antithesis of "on...
