Are you a creationist?

Post #1

Post by Wootah »

Hi all,

The thing about creation is that we do it every moment.

- I look at a lump of matter and make it into my wife every day of my marriage.

- Apparently, there is a bunch of atoms that I recognise every day how to get back to and I call it my home.

The day you are not a creationist, you likely have lost your mind.

Are you a creationist? Thoughts?
Proverbs 18:17 The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him.

"Why is everyone so quick to reason God might be petty. Now that is creating God in our own image :)."

Who or what determines it's accuracy. You answer that then I will tell you.
This is a common theist tactic to avoid showing they speak truth.

I propose if you could show you speak truth, you wouldn't fret to show ya do.

This is a debate. You do not make the rules. Your tactic is when you can not rise to the challenge
is to deflect with some nonsense such as

" This is a common theist tactic to avoid showing they speak truth.

I propose if you could show you speak truth, you wouldn't fret to show ya do."

If you cannot or will not tell me who or what determines the accuracy of the book of Genesis

YOU LOSE THE DEBATE.

It's commendable that you overcame the temptation to call someone a moron, but it's uncivil to tell us about that. That would be considered an indirect attack.

For others, if anyone wants to debate the accuracy of Genesis (or any book of the Bible), please go to How can we trust the Bible if it's not inerrant? and we can debate that topic.

I'll take that to mean you can't show the book of Genesis is an accurate record in this matter.

Before I can show the book of Genesis is an accurate record in this matter he must first establish
the standard to which we will use as to compare the accuracy of the book of Genesis.

Therefore it is him that you should call out on it not me.
My reply was a rebuttal to his direct question of the accuracy or the book of Genesis.

No the truth will decide the winner. And if you can't reply then the debate is over.

You did not answer my question. You simply asked me another question. Is English not your first language? Or are you simply trolling us and wasting our time? Going back through all your posts it seems you are not here to contribute anything.
