Thanks Muck!:up:
I am going on vacation and won't be able to respond ( hears cheer from the phins crowd) until next week. Taking the wife on a little camping trip...
Look at the big picture Don. You are referring to individual societies, and I am referring to earth and all it's inhabitants. Certainly a group...
And what corner is that my friend? Also I don't hold to "take everything at the same value", don't know where you got that from but I would...
The bible is true. I believe that. And if I didn't believe that, it is still true. Not gonna argue that as it is a subject of fierce debate but...
No not at all. The OT Theocracy has three areas of authority for the Jews of that time. 1. Societal or civil laws having to do with how to...
No not at all. Deception can be an unwilling thing. I don't think that most people willfully intend to decieve on this matter. I think they...
In reference to Number 1. Just because there are many "beliefs", as you point out, does not make them many "truths". Please understand the...
The bible was written with a purpose and a meaning, one purpose and one meaning. Not several. Not - "Hey what ever I think it means is what it...
Why do you think that my life is complicated. I don't feel that way at all. I am very happy and content with my life.
I heard about this and my wife and I nearly collapsed. How tragic! This just breaks my heart into pieces. But she is in a better place, and this...
I am making a logical argument, and that is this..... If a person claims to be a christian, but the only knowledge of christianity is the...
The bible being true doesn't mean that we have to agree with, or understand, it. We are all in a constant state of rebellion. I don't like having...
Well now the discussion turns to the moral implications of war by a country. I think it should be noted here that murder is different than...
In the OT Theocracy that the Jews lived under - yes. Doesn't mean I agree with it, but it was the way it was. In todays society there are laws...
Well.....isn't that just saying that whatever you want to believe in, if it feels comfortable, then believe it? That can't be truth, because then...
Well if I had to choose who is being deceiving - God or Satan - I would think Satan hands down, but that is just me. When I state "you say you...
Thanks man! I was reading about the Social Statement on Sexuality on the Elca website. I haven't finished it but sounds interesting. My...
Ok Celt. You can believe what you want. Evolution denies the Genesis account of Creation. You believe in man made evolution theory verses the...
Touche' then. I readily admit my side is biased. All sides are biased. Because I believe that my side is true isn't hypocrisy, is it believing one...
Hey I don't have a problem with the earth being old or young. The bible doesn't say how old it is. The problem I have with science is how it has...
This is were we disagree. There is bias on both sides of the equation. If you believe that "real science" isn't biased, you really need to...
Hey Celt - We all have our beliefs systems don't we? Don't ever lose your skepticism, you may need it one day Brother!
Ah Wikipedia.....nuff said. You can count on two things when it comes to research that bucks the evolutionary belief system: 1. The research...
I am not advocating anyone can or try to live without sin. Not sure were you got derailed there but that isn't what I was referring to. All I...
Celt - I don't know why the Rate Project is not published in Evolution dominated journals. You would have to ask them if they tried to get peer...
Hey the half life of isotopes measured today is constant, but what we don't know is this: 1. Has it always been constant? 2. Has there been...
Or one day science will confirm that the earth is really only less than 100,000 years old, despite the belief that it isn't. I do not want to...
Hey I hear ya Brother. I like science. I really do. I just don't like the part of science that claims to be an authority on things they have no...
Ok, replace homosexual with adulterer, or drunkard, or "pick your sin". In God's eyes sin is sin and sin has no heirarchy. A white lie is just...
I am not going to comment on this as this is where I get accused of taking it off topic. Sorry!:wink2:
Here is the thing with "judging" others. WE have no authority to ultimately Judge anyone, only God can and will do that. What does Judgement mean...
I have been reading your posts Ohio and I have to comment on this one. It sounds to me like you are of the "once saved always saved" camp? It...
I think your view of science involving itself with religion must have a necessary prerequisite in order to be valid- namely it must be objective,...
What a great thread! Lot's of great posts. As to the original question - Does Science make belief in God obsolete? I think that question is...
That is cool!
The bible does not say that there are any life forms outside earth. It also does not say that there is. It does relate to us as a unique and...
Because Christianity is also part of our history and our heritage. America is one of the most generous nations in the history of the world mainly...
Hey no problem thanks for sharing. I am glad the link helped you understand the Christian Trinity. I also understand the mass exodus from...
Ok I understand your view. But what harm is having the Ten Commandments in a US Court room? Three of the Commandments are staples in our Justice...
LOl Yeah I know. But it is called the Trinity. The Father, Son and Holy Spirit. You have not said, or I don't believe you have, what your...
This is exactly the right approach. This is why I left the Republican Party in 2000, right after the dispicable election fiasco. Shame on both...
Jesus is God. When you are praying to God, you are praying to Jesus as well. I pray to God - In Jesus name - Amen.
Maybe now the poor platypus will find a home, becasue it just doesn't seem to fit into any one category.
The two hot button issues are marriage and abortion. Amending the constitution is only one way to deal with these issues, and not the most...
I guess you would have to ask specifically what does he want to amend? Rights to Life of an unborn child? Marriage as being between one man...
I don't think anyone but Huckabee wants to amend the constitution to reflect biblical principles. The government can barely manage to govern what...
By itself? No it isn't alive. It requires other ingredients to be considered alive. Irreducable complexity.
Yes I state unapologetically that belief in evolution is a faith based belief system. You provide no evidence that proves that it isn't anything...
Celt, with all due respect, and you have been given much respect, where is the reciprocity? I don't believe in your science but I respect your...
I would be interested in your data, But does this data show that life came from non-life, and also would it provide a mechanism to species jump?...
Sir Fred Hoyle - "Hoyle on Evolution", Nature, Vol 294, November 12, 1981. p. 148. Harold Marowitz - "Energy Flow in Biology", New York, NY,...
Wow. Plenty of prayers to go around for all. God Bless.
Oh and to answer your question, as I always try to do if I can keep up, is - in order respectively, Hoyle, Marowitz and Sagan. And I am not...
That is why I said "right now". Finding life on other planets doesn't change anything for me. It could go either way, but if I were a betting man...
How bout that huge step in between nucleic acids and RNA? Look we have gone over this time and time again. Miller Urey, while promising, didn't...
Kinda blows holes in the term "fossil fuel" ey?
Considering the chance that life from non-life happened on this planet is somehwere between 1 chance in 10 to the 40,000th to 1 chance in 10 to...
Intersting point. Why are the odds in favor of life elsewhere? On what do you base that on?
If there is other intelligent life out there then that is one thing, and the cause of that intelligent life could be random chance as is being...
Yes yes yes there is always hope that one day, when we have done more research and spent oodles of money that there will be some discovery of life...
The question has been and probably will be for some time.......are we significant? or are we insignificant? If we are significant then we would...
Fascinating research! Looking for more!
Hotel - no we will drive up that day from Tucson. Care rental - no Ariline - No Tickets yes two please! dolphan7@yahoo.com Thanks!
Great thread! Thanks Rev for starting it. I would like to post some original songs from my church, but don;t know exactly how to do it. Any help?
People believe in God for many different reasons. I don't think fear is among the most popular reasons, at least among the people I have spoken...
Yes it is your life. You have the freedom to choose whatever you want. But there can only be one right choice, not several. So if I am right,...
I think this is a fair question. My answer is that if I am wrong, I lived a moral life, was a great husband, father, leader, citizen......etc. I...
No doubt, there has to be discussions and some sort of interpretations of events, but I think personal opinion should be held in check, otherwise...
Amazing what they can recreate simply from a pile of bones!
Ahhhh... there is hope for our youth after all..........
Jihad!
Well a couple days off and I have no hope of catching up. It seems the battle lines are drawn, defenses shored up, the line has not budged,...
Crap! There ain't enough info in that article to help one form a definitive opinion on it. We don't know the facts of the child custody order from...
To be consistant and fair, I don't think a right leaning teacher should take the opportunity in a European History class to expound on the...
To anyone who first seeks to discredit scientists or engineers who question evolution, you are missing the point. The point is that scientists are...
Likewise. I haven't sold my objectivity for a piece of worthless paper and called that wisdom, or science. All you have to do is show me where...
Pagan come now. We had agreed to discuss the evidence that supports creation. I provided some factual flood evidence. I don't feel inclined to...
Apples to oranges. Go back to the flood posts. Evidence of creation, not creator. Evolution demands observable natural explanations, which it...
Nice try. Dodgeball anyone? When no answers are available, it must be the questions!, Or the questioner doesn't know science. Science has no...
At its's basic core, evolution requires a mechanism to explain how simpler organisms evolve into more complex organisms. With the last 100 or so...
Ok please understand the difference between finding natural explanations, if they exist......... and everything must be explained naturally....
Of course they say that. But remember that they demand long time periods in order for the theory to fit. Appearance of life is sudden in the...
Evolution says life happened from non-life. They don't know how, but it happened. Evolution says that through some still unknown process, new...
Could you send me a PM and please explain to me what you think a Christian is? Because you have me confused.
Yes there were hundreds of eyewitnesses, and they wrote about it, and it was accepted as truth back then. If they were wrong, or making it up,...
Because there is an obsolute moral standard of right and wrong. Whether you or I believe that or not doesn't matter. You say that I am wrong,...
Ah you are asking more questions before we concluded the last post. Ok fine I can go with it. But I do like to put to bed prior topics before...
Boy. Take a break from this site for a day and look how far behind I am. Great question! According to what we see in the fossil record,...
Well of course there are other explanations - what would you expect from people who seek to explain things by natural causes. The question...
Are looking for proof of the Christian God from secular science, who don't believe in said God? That makes sense to you? Are you under the...
And all you have to do is ignore my posts and there would be no more debate. Every response you make demands an answer, so you perpetuate and...
Word games. You are avoiding the debate Pagan. Why am I wrong? On what basis can you say I am wrong? Saying I am wrong or saying you believe I am...
I have studied Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, eastern shamanism etc and many Christian cults and sects. IF you beleive we were designed by a...
What an idiot!
Ok I see where you are coming from. You make it sound really complicated. To me, and this is just me, it was really simple. We either got...
That's cool. One last thing.... You said - I would be fine dying now WITH my beliefs. Then you said - I know I do not have it all figured...
Ok Good. No surprise there. Now can you tell me why I am wrong? What basis are you using to define right and wrong?
I know now, I don't have to wait until I die. You can wait if you want, but if there is a divine absolute morality, that would be too late....
Can you answer the question? Do you think I am wrong?
That is fine with me if you want to believe that morality is defined by each individual. But you have no basis to define right and wrong...
People can be judgemental all they want, but they don't have the basis to do so. That is the point. With individual morality your views are...
Go back and review to see who started questioning and commenting on others posts first. I'll give you a clue - "Mirror". :lol:
Actually that would be the second question. If we determine there is an absolute moral authority, then the next question would be - Which one...
Christianity is exclusionary, there is no question about that. God rejects those who reject Him. Plain and simple. But..... Before putting...
:sidelol: I am sorry but I just thought it funny that you question the time the Book of John was written, and it's authority - by saying that...
And then there is this: The Bible is America’s Favorite Book Followed by Gone with the Wind http://www.harrisinteractive.com/harris_poll/
.......:up:
Very well trained Elephant!
I am a born again evengelical Christian. I attend a non-denominational church. I believe that there is an absolute moral standard given by God,...
This case goes nowhere. No grounds. It is sad though that teachers have to instill their own vitriolic opinions into the classroom.
Thanks!
Now that is a great marketing ploy!!
Not to take this off topic, but did you know who will be playing Get Smart in the summer of 08? Steve Correl. Now that should be one funny...
Put this on the door: We Aim to Please You aim Too please!
Hey God Bless all you who are working hard to get the FH site back up and running. You are doing a great service to all the Dolphin Fans...
Heavy sigh.............................
But I think you can apply this to any player and in this instance Ronnie Brown. No way does he consider trading his #2 draft pick and best...
Oh Crap! Why don't we just trade everyone off the team for draft picks. Then we could field a complete college team in 08. Great idea. Ronne...
Would anyone trade Dan Marino in 1997 because he is at the end of his career and we could get some draft picks?
This is what makes the business world go round. Even Presidents of the USA bring in their own known players. Everyone needs to get a grip.
Well let's not give Parcells God status just yet. ;)
Born at Homestead AFB, family has roots in Miami although no one is there today. Been a fan since 1970 when I was old enough to figure out what...
Antoine Cason of AZ would be a great addition for Miami. He just has an instinct for the ball, an interception hound. Probably won't be there when...
Welker was hard to see go but we would never have been able to realize his full skill set with our oline and qb. Chambers was not really the...
I think the difference between a coach promising to turn things around and Parcells is the fact that Parcells has all the tools at his disposal to...
Probably right about that. I wonder if he can announce it though?
Now this is what I would think Parcells would do, trade down to get more picks vs trading JT.
Don't be surprised if he names a coach within the next 7 days.
Sure you would, but the question is - Will Parcells? And I say he keeps JT.
Like New England? I'll take it!
Well look at New England - They have Jr Seau, Mike Vrable and Teddy Bruschi on their defense and they play at a high level and they are at the end...
This is a true fact of which you speak. We need to also remember how many times both Zach and JT revised their contracts to help the team with cap...
No wonder I can't find it!:confused1:
Keep JT. Zach is a different story, whether he retires, gets cut, traded whatever I think we need to move "now" to get his replacement on the...
Sure it does. Check out my new signature!
Then don't draft them (replaements) this year. Wait till next year or the year after that. As a former Sales Manager I enherited a team of...
Well I guess that was a shot at Mueller:confused2:..........depending on how you want to spin it.
I don't think the 2007 season is indicative of what JT can do on the field for 2-3 more years. Remember he wasn't utilized by Cam very well IMO....
3 day weekend starts now.:thumbup: Love your Avatar!
You are probably right about ZT not being there next year, but I think it will be Zach's decision due to his injuries that will decide his fate....
I for one believe that JT will be productive at a high level for the next 3-4 years barring injury, plus the veteran leadership he provides you...
Why do we owe it to any player to trade them to a team so they have a shot at a ring? What about keeping them as I believe we will and work toward...
Yah why put Grossman on the list? Surely thee are better FA out there than him.
Well this was fun.....back to Finheaven Forum!
Parcells won't be the next Dolphins Coach. Period.
Some of our best Ol drafts were in the 1st or second round. Dwight Stephenson 1st 1980 Richmond Webb 1st 1990 Keith Simms 2nd 1990 You...
Good for Samson Satele. Good for the Dolphins who have not had any good news at the oline positions since the old Simms and Webb days guarding...
Hey I hear they are bringing in Tony Saprano. He is both offensive and defensive minded. Oh no heads are gunna roll! :lol:
Hey why not Mike Martz?!?:huh1:
Dallas Mafia! Now that was funny I don't care who ya are!
If anyone can get a draft pick for RW, Parcells can. If he let's him back on the team, it will be on a very short leash.
I am sorry but this is a business and business looks at the bottom line, not whether the guy was a nice guy or had injuries or it was someone...
Once a cheater, always a cheater.
Whoever it is I think it will happen real soon, like maybe even by the end of this week. The sooner the better. There are a lot of coaches we let...
Bil Cowher would be an excellent fit in Miami. I wonder if he and Parcells have a history?
