    Tower of Babel

    Could you imagine? Never. There'd be a lot of foot stomping and girly finger wagging. "RimDon."

    Tower of Babel

    So you're in agreement that attributing the Tower's construction to Nimrod is not supported by any specific Bible passages but is the result of extabiblical sources, i.e. Josephus? I hate to keep bringing it up but I find it interesting how the extrabiblical traditions, tales and details...

    a hypothetical conversation between a biblical creationist and an evolutionist

    I usually stop reading anything when I hit the phrase "molecules-to-man evolution". That phrase is the 47th chromosome in any sentence.

    Creationists: "Kind" = Species; species that evolve.

    You're welcome. :) But c'mon newhope101... I obviously disagree emphatically with you but I know you know this is a misrepresentation.

    Cult Koolaid

    It wasn't Kool-Aid btw, the cult actually drank grape Flavor Aid laced with cyanide, valium, Phenergan and chloral hydrate- all powerful sedatives.

    And you guys were so close to a third page! :D

    Tower of Babel

    I didn't explain myself well enough: Yes, Nimrod is mentioned in Genesis as the grandson of Noah, but I meant that there's no Biblical passage(s) associating him as the builder of the Tower of Babel. All of the material ascribing him to its construction is extra-biblical and started with...

    Creationists: "Kind" = Species; species that evolve.

    Lovejoy is a brilliant anthropologist- his work on the origin of bipedalism is awesome. Why would anyone "heap" on him? Yes, Lovejoy supports the idea that Ardi' predates the CLCA (Chimpanzee-human Last Common Ancestor)- he's arguing that a strict chimpanzee model is too restrictive to...

    Creationists: "Kind" = Species; species that evolve.

    He's technically a zoologist. I was being nit picky since Dawkins hasn't published much on taxonomies. ;)

    The Atheist belief is sad indeed.

    I am an atheist. I still am not sure what you meant by "Google is a waste of time when there are actual atheist around that use it."

    Tower of Babel

    Wasn't attributing the construction of the Tower of Babel to Nimrod an extra-biblical idea introduced by Josephus?

    The Atheist belief is sad indeed.

    Google makes a pretty good dictionary if you don't know the definition of a word.

    What does this mean? :confused:

    The Atheist belief is sad indeed.

    My atheism was such a gradual thing I never had anything like a revelation or a massive cognitive shift that brought my worldview crashing down. The quiet transition from a Russian Orthodox childhood I probably didn't understand to atheism was so subtle that anything like a loss or anything...

    The Random, Meaningless Announcements Thread!

    According to my phone it is: Snowing in Cork and 30 degrees F. Snowing in london and 32 degrees F. Raining in Montreal and 43 degrees F. Sunny in Los Angeles and 63 degrees F. Raining in Portland (Oregon) and 39 degrees F. This is fun! :no:

    Creationists: "Kind" = Species; species that evolve.

    This thread is a good example of the futility in debating creationists imo. PW wrapped this thing up long ago yet the obstinate responses keep pouring in....

    Creationists: "Kind" = Species; species that evolve.

    Dawkins? Really? :confused: Yes, the Neander Valley is what they're named after. They had slightly larger brains on average and while infant brains were similar to human infants they didn't have the plasticity or lose the elongated shape like human brains do as they grow older. A rounder brain...
