Joshua 10:12-13 God made the sun and moon stand still
Post #1"On the day the LORD gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the LORD in the presence of Israel: "Sun, stand still over Gibeon, and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon." So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the nation avenged itself on its enemies, as it is written in the Book of Jashar. The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day." - Joshua 10:12-13, The Bible (New International Version). If the Bible is true and this really happened, then why is there no records by any other civilizations of the extraordinary event of the sun and the moon standing still for a day? For this to occur, the Earth would need to suddenly stop rotating on its axis which would cause people and other animals, structures, bodies of water, etc. to be flung out into space due to inertia. Besides, how can a loving and just God command genocide?

So, to summarize, your own words were used to demonstrate the spuriousness of the belief system, and you felt the need to try to make what you said, say something different.
Because, obviously, that's what you said.
If not, explain, please what you meant, since I got it soooo wrong.

Post #63Back in the 70's 7/11 made a sour grape Slurpee that I was very fond of. They called it "fulla-bulla." I just like the sound of the phrase.JehovahsWitness wrote:I don't understand this sentence: What does "total fulla bulla" mean?Tired of the Nonsense wrote: So I suppose I was attempting to point out that revealed truth and total fulla bulla can be entirely in the eye of the beholder.

Post #65It refers to something which is fulla-bulla. I suspect that you understand the reference just fine.
