    Is death just another life?

    Seems like your examples are backwards, with New York being called New York before it existed. Does sin make us stupid (as Bob liked to tell us)? Yet we don't call death "stupidity". Just because sin separates us from someone doesn't mean we're dead. Sin separates us emotionally from our...

    Is death just another life?

    Ok. Thanks for clarifying. It actually says He put the spirit/breath into man (Adam), not "into his body". In other words, the spirit/breath of life was added to man to make man a living soul. [Gen 2:7 KJV] And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils...

    Is death just another life?

    Are you saying "death" is just a figure of speech? I'll come back to that later. No apology needed, these threads are impossible to read in entirety, and although this ground has been covered, it's the primary topic of the thread, and needs to be reiterated. So I'll try to do that. My question...

    Is death just another life?

    How else would you refer to them? If a bunch of people had disembarked from a plane, what would you call them? Wouldn't it be "passengers"? But they, having already disembarked, are no longer passengers. What did God call Adam while he was still alive? He called him "dust", even though he...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    Have we just circled back about 500 posts?

    Maybe the kind that need both to be raised and quickened: John 5:21 KJV — For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth them; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    But you believe we can claim knowledge about the creation from the prophetical books. If we're only going to allow genesis from others, then let's all just use genesis.

    I think you're in the wrong thread. Please take your comment to the Washington Post thread, where it belongs. 😉

    That should tell you something about the Harvard Journal of Law and Technology.

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    Yes, a canopy that was supposedly impossible. I'm suggesting that if you pick parameters that make it impossible, then if course it will be impossible. But if what we currently have could be called a canopy, and the world doesn't come to an end, then a canopy might have existed prior to the...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    @Right Divider, @Yorzhik Check out Job 36:29 in th NKJV. It talks about a canopy even after the flood. Job 36:29 NKJV — Indeed, can anyone understand the spreading of clouds, The thunder from His canopy? And this one describes it: Psalm 18:11 NKJV — He made darkness His secret place; His...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    But the plant life both of you were talking about was plant life alive at the time of the flood, which would have a certain amount of CO2 required to support it staying alive, no matter how long it had been growing prior to that. I expect you're right, but I haven't seen calculations one way or...

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    I agree. I think you are confused about what you were arguing against. @Yorzhik was saying there needed to be more CO2 to support the amount of plant life in existence at the time of the flood.

    Is there any obvious evidence today for the biblical global Flood?

    Eh? All of the evidence we have of plant life before the flood is from fossils, and it's likely all of that was alive together at the time of the flood.

    Our Moral God

    There appears to be an element of goodness in the distinction between right and wrong, goodness meaning what is good for the person, The family, the world, mankind, etc. Aborting babies is bad for the babies, but also for the mothers, the fathers, society, the elderly, etc. Murder is bad for...
