Actually, it is we who are made in God's image, right? Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, over all the earth and over every creeping thing that...

Unbiblical, Aristotelian nonsense which can be refuted (i.e. proven false) by quoting a single passage of scripture. I'll quote three! Genesis 3:9 Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?” Genesis 22:12 And He said, “Do not lay your hand on the lad, or do anything to...

The distinction between "different" and "change" would have been angrily rejected by both Augustine and Calvin, not to mention Plato and Aristotle which is where the real Genesis of Divine Immutability is found. There are several ways to demonstrate this, probably the most obvious of which is...

Was that a yes or a no, Marke? Danger! Run from any lunatic that tells you that you need something other than the bible to understand God's word. "God was such a terrible writer, wasn't He! I mean, I until I got 'spiritual' and started seeking God outside His written word, I couldn't make...

It isn't about me, it's about being honest and not being afraid of a label that fits. You don't agree with the Crusades or the Spanish Inquisition but aren't afraid to wear the label "Christian". Likewise, you aren't a Lutheran but aren't afraid for someone to think you're a Protestant. You...

Do you believe it to be JUST AS inspired?

Because ducks quack, Marke! If you do not use anything other than the KJV and you think that every other translation of the bible, even those that aren't in English, are inferior to the KJV because the KJV is the result of God preserving His word on Earth and no other bible can make that claim...

You could have just said, "Yes, I'm a KJV-onlyist". It isn't required that you agree with every syllable that every other KJV-onlyist says.

Have you ever read Atlas Shrugged? If so, I'd be curious to know how you'd respond to Francisco d'Anconia's money speech and how you'd square what he says with 1 Timothy 6:10. If you've not read or heard the speech, you can read it HERE. In fact, you should read the whole of Atlas Shrugged or...

The right to life is one of my favorite topics! The right to life is the basis and source for all other rights. Nobody I know of ever said it better than Ayn Rand (of all people)... A “right” is a moral principle defining and sanctioning a man’s freedom of action in a social context. There is...

I love the dark rice at Chipotle! It has lemon and cilantro and it doesn't stick together and its just the best rice I've ever eaten. I can't stand eating inside the Chipotle restaurant though. They're always playing weird hippy music in there. I can't take it. I go eat it while sitting in my...

I bet you've lost five pounds already! It takes about 18 hours or so to enter ketosis (i.e. that means zero calories taken in for 18 hours) so when you eat only one meal a day, you enter ketosis for short time every day. Ketosis is basically when your body has switched from burning carbs to...

About 8 weeks. It would have been much faster had I tried harder but I figure I'm going to stick with it longer if I just sort of take it easy. Basically, I eat what I want when I want. The only thing that's changed is the "when I want" part. Some days I feel like skipping a meal, other days I...

God's plans have been thwarted many times! What are you even talking about? You don't get ten pages into the bible before that train leaves the station! Ever heard of Eden? Ever heard of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil? Well, it probably wasn't Jesus as much as it was the Father...

Well, you got that right! I certainly can and I will, which was the entire point of what I said. Who cares? That wasn't the point! Are you really this stupid? Let me explain the totally obvious point of mentioning Tyndale.... William Tyndale is widely credited with being the first guy to...

Okay, wow! It's official. I can no longer remember a time when anyone on TOL ever changed their mind about anything, no matter what anyone said or how they said it.

I've been fascinated by the whole topic of paradigm shifts for quite a while. It turns out that our brains are sort of wired to resist paradigm shifts and people who accept them usually aren't aware that they are on a course that will lead to such a shift until it actually happens. This is why...

Well, except for the answer, "The ministry of the Twelve changed when Israel was cut off.", which is the only rationally consistent answer anyone could give. I met a Baptist pastor one time that really did believe that Paul was the rightful replacement of Judas. His whole argument was to point...

All points made that suggest that you know how to translate the bible better than every person who has ever translated the bible into English since William Tyndale will be ignored. This is unresponsive and attempts to redirect the issue by simply recasting it from within your paradigm. In...

Care to make even the slightest attempt to show me even one single example of poor grammar in scripture? NO! Typos are mistakes. What you're doing is no mistake. You are INTENTIONALLY insisting on using flagrantly poor grammar FOR NO GOOD REASON! At this point it isn't even about the grammar...
