A Bunch of Reasons Why I Question Noah's Flood Story:

[Dropship]

All this without modern science detecting the genetic bottlenecks that would leave behind. And the scriptures indicate that the animals boarding the Ark were in pairs of 2, male and female; it does not indicate DNA samples. Oh, and DNA samples need to remain refrigerated; and that without the technology to do so.

Think outside the box mate in modern scientific terms, the Ark was a "DNA repository craft"..

...certain gods do NOT exist; the God depicted in the Bible among them. Too many errors and contradictions for the being as described.

Wait a minute Charlie, on the one hand atheists say the bible has been edited over the centuries to tidy it up and make it look good, yet on the other hand they say its full of contradictions!
Wish they'd make up their minds..

The Bible does have contradictions.

Examples:

1. Contradiction with creation timelines in Genesis 1 & 2.
2. Flood water rose, lasted 40 days or 150 days.
3. The Greek Septuagint on Genesis 5 differed in the numbers of years in Masoretic Text, eg Septuagint says Adam 230 years old when Seth was born, while MT says he was 130. The Septuagint add 100 years to most patriarchs (when they became fathers to the next patriarchs) in Genesis 5.
4. Goliath’s height in Masoretic Text differed from that of Septuagint and the Dead Sea Scrolls.
5. Two different birth stories of Jesus.
6. Two different versions of Jesus’ genealogy.
7. The night where Jesus was anointed with perfume, during supper at Bethany:
   1. ...took place at home where Simon the leper was host in Mark 14 and Matthew 26, but host was Lazarus in John 12;
   2. ...woman doing anointing was unnamed and unknown in Mark & Matthew, but it was Mary Magdalene in John;
   3. ...and it was Jesus’ head anointed in Mark & Matthew, but Mary anointed Jesus’ feet.
   4. ...in Luke 7, the anointing of Jesus’ feet, by unnamed “sinful” woman, in the home of Simon the Pharisee, not Simon the leper or Lazarus, and it took place in Nain (Galilee), not in Bethany (Judaea).
8. Mary Magdalene’s visit to Jesus’ tomb, she went alone in one gospel, with another woman, in another gospel and with 2 other women.

There are many contradictions and inconsistencies. Did you even bother to actually read the Bible?

Not so sure it was accurately copied and transcribed. I notice that you inserted (as possible). But then you evoke the Holy Spirit to explain how it is so accurate and continues to last. Interesting. So you credit the (supposedly) infallible Holy Spirit for passing along a collection of books that are so deeply flawed.

I think you and I do not have the same definition of the holy spirit. I also do not agree with your depiction of the Bible as being deeply flawed. However it was written down, and by that I mean in what form or shape it was first penned I do not know. We can only assume based on what it says. However, in regard to the holy spirit it might be worth it for you to research this. I will quote the following from John chapter 3: "Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. Flesh is born of flesh, but spirit is born of the Spirit. Do not be amazed that I said, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes. You hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”

"Atheists" don't say the Bible has been edited over the centuries. Scholars and historians do. It is amusing how the theist consistently blame the atheist for things they don't like.

The Bible is full of contradictions. If one can't see that and accept that, then they are stricken with a sound case of Cognitive dissonance.

Humans. Owning a human life as two humans had sex.

The human scientist. Mr know it all baby man life who gets sacrificed by your owned machine science.

Taught his own human advice about false science preaching. Of humans.

I don't know science but like all of you a human first naturally I observe and think.

So not false indoctrinated by science my natural life observed.

Once science pyramid temple liars technology human chosen satanic nuclear burnt out earths heavens voiding gases.

By fallout. By man to anti man's life to Remove life by suns nuclear gas light machine conditions. Time shifting machine.

As science said it owned the gas light constant.

His brother said mother of earth o the planet holy gods o mother space pressure void vacuum owned the light.

A scientific teaching. The space womb.

Now God owned presence of O earth was cold entombed spiritually.

One and Only God of humans machine sciences.

If he wanted gods body to be brought back to an alive God the gases had to be burning.

The book of the dead is isis jesus status.

Gods spirit brought back as science.

As humans living already were mother space womb supported by light voiding.

Science never owned light in other words.

Their formula to get the light constant for machine reactions.

Takes the machine alights it's minerals to build a God machine.

So to own a machine he did evil.

He brought gods earth spirit back from cold death.

O God in the presence of God is cold.

The sun alight rebelling is consuming it's body as a God. Sun time going back into the past is to remove the presence.

Hence God science was removing the presence of God by sun time consuming law.

The heavenly gods spirit a gas cold as God was the immaculate.

Alight sacrificed immaculate was gods and mother of gods owned inferred sacrifice. One body between two bodies.

So the heavenly god was not the one God of science. The planet was.

As a human scientific explanation why no human was any God.

As we are not a clear gas mass.
As we are not the gas mass being burnt sacrificed.

We are just humans.

Humans said as the immaculate cold existed it kept us alive as it is only human observed by Living humans.

They said the day light made us die.

We used both states to live yet one state the day also owned why we died.

As radiation by cause does not support natural bio life.

Only a lived taught human observed statement to say so never cause it to change.

Science the machine did cause it to change by human choice as a small group compared to the mass human population agreement.

Family owns the rights first.

 

[rational experiences]

Humans living as humans look.observe UFO as a metal. Observe it as a human.

As a human you observe aliens in heaven gas burning images.

Yet light is voiding in space so no image should be seen.

Men of science said the alien came out of gods metal body. Yet God owns as a planet cold sealed metal.

So you lied.

You said an alien is a human in the past.

Yesterday one day younger a human lived. Sun mass nuclear state burnt out also.

Your human age is however old you actuslly are. As the human.

Yet humans died about a hundred years ago by Radio radiation metal constants as past reason the past of no human.

As not a human means a human is known a human dies.

In science before a human the scientist says is a living animal in bio past.

Consciousness in science false theories and always had false theoried.

Observed forty days of flooding rains was observed forty days of flooding rain. The ark hit ararat. A mountain tip.so pouring rain flooding was caused over the mountains.

We talk about what we See.

Human observation clouds covered the burning mountain and obscured it's face whilst the burnt blackened nuclear face of the mountain given title Moses burnt.

In that history gold was being melted. Stone temple steps melted. Gold technology production by nuclear.

The ground face is where science the machine begins.

Crops living get what you claim is ufo ark impressed upon by a circle. Only by atmospheric cold water oxygen burning gas pressure changes.

A small amount of ball radiation seen not cooled until it disappears cooled.

Is called a scientific human observation present now with living life.

Crops not the impression already a living grounded bio body proved your theory fake already. UFO ark is not God the creator as Phi.

Phi begins as a man's theory just a circle applied with a number owned no pattern. The human theist discusses it first exactly as that format never said God was a crop circle they said it was the devil mowing.

As humans knew in human observation human science had caused it.

Nuclear mass removal one day equals a sun mass gone body by causes and God earths body nuclear converted which is no light just radiation burning.

What consuming equals as a cosmic answer.

The Ark served its purpose in keeping the DNA samples dry, then the samples were re-activated into living creatures after the flood subsided..

Sounds like you equate bible tales with either magic or alien tech.

Cool. That is one way to make them feasible. Because as written, they ain't.

 

[tas8831]

Also, atheists are a part of God's plan. God created atheism and loves atheists.

Nope.

 

[tas8831]

When I was attending UCLA I thought of myself as an atheist but then one day out of nowhere I just felt like I was being watched while I was walking by a really big building to the bus stop.

Schizophrenia often manifests in the teen years.

 

[tas8831]

God created atheism? Really? ?

Oooo ! Religionist fight!

 

[tas8831]

So you are serious.
And now you're invoking God magic.

So where do you think the remains of this super modern dome supposedly built in ancient times are resting now?

Ararat?

There are many contradictions and inconsistencies. Did you even bother to actually read the Bible?

One of the first books I read - after I had read the bible which put me on the precipice of atheism - was "Self-Contradictions of the Bible." Originally published in the 1800s. Anonymously, of course - the author knew the flock well enough to fear for his life, I suppose, though the author is now known.

It is a simple, line vs. line account of direct contradictions the author found in Scripture. 144 of them.
Example:

3.

GOD DWELLS IN LIGHT.

Dwelling in light which no man can approach unto. (1 Tim. 6:16.)

GOD DWELLS IN DARKNESS.

The Lord said he would dwell in thick darkness. (1 Kings 8:12.)

He made darkness his secret place. (Ps. 18:11.)

Clouds and darkness are round about him. (Ps. 97:2.)

I keep meaning to mate but keep getting distracted by exciting TV shows, for example The Waltons is on later- "John-Boy becomes the target of gossip when he falls for the new schoolmistress who is older than him"
Hmm sounds good, it's about time he had some action..

Speaking of things not liked, I only joined RF 10 days ago and have already had several of my posts deleted by the mods, I suppose some snowflake atheists didn't like them and must have complained to get them deleted..
I've therefore started looking round for a free speech forum as I don't expect to be here much longer.

So you credit the (supposedly) infallible Holy Spirit for passing along a collection of books that are so deeply flawed.

There has been at least one noticeable problem in the transmissions in the Christian Greek Scriptures, commonly known as the "New Testament." I don't see these books, obviously written in ancient times, as "deeply flawed." I see them as a guide to life if properly understood and incorporated in one's life. And of course, we are recognizing that Joshua did not write about his own death. This is not to say that every single word was written by Joshua or any of the writers with the name attached to the book. You do ask an interesting question.
The reason I said that holy spirit gathered the collection of books as generally accepted by many Christians and was put together by the Catholic Church is because that was the instrument God used at that time. I'll get back to this later, you do ask an interesting question and I'd like to do more research on this.

Aw -- please don't go. (Wasn't there a song written with those words?)
I too was "warned," not sure what you were warned about, I spoke to moderators about my warning(s), they were very nice, but -- we all have different mindsets, so I look for conversations that I find interesting and which don't "break the rules." If a person becomes so obstinate that they can't see the trees from the forest, or tell me repeatedly how stupid (uneducated) I am, it's probably time for me to move on, as the expression goes. But sometimes I don't. Maybe because I am stupid. lol.

Well -- God can determine what's good and what's not good. Anyway, have a nice day. Oh, yeah, that volcano in one of the Canary Islands is very, very interesting. I'm having a nice discussion about the layering of the volcanic eruption on another thread. Very, very interesting.

To be honest with you, I believe you are misplacing (by that I mean misunderstanding) the context of those scriptures you quote as if they dissolve the meaning of the Bible. So--have a nice day wherever you are.

Are you sure it was atheists? I don't think that I have reported any of your posts. But you should know that name calling, as you just did, is not allowed here. If I called Christians "idiot Christians" I would quickly be in trouble here. And I would likely lose some Christian friends as well. There is quite the range of beliefs here. Respect for others will keep your posts from being deleted.

And how did you arrive at your figure of eleven million?
