Why do you think Jesus never wrote anything down? (page 6)

There's a website, Answers In Genesis, that tackles that very problem.

I think it's worth a look.

You mean it tackles how God lied and then said that Satan was the father of the lie, and how he didn't want Adam and Eve to have any intelligence or knowledge?

You missed the point, entirely...

Strip away the beliefs and pre-conceived notions. Read the A&E account... as it is written. Don't interpret it. Don't try to make it say something it doesn't. Read it and ask yourself, based on what you just read, who lied and who didn't. It's quite simple really...

Here's a question for you--what good is free will if we're not to inform our choices with knowledge? If our knowledge is entirely based on what we're told, how is our will free at all?

No, the original Hebrew words for die and dying are used to show how Eve could have been mistaken, which gives credence to the Apostle Paul's words that Eve was deceived.

Now, who's missing the point?

You're right. It's very simple.

Here's one for you: Whence free will?

Exactly.

Anyone who buys into this shit is one step below a JW...

Are Dinosaurs a Mystery?

Many think that the existence of dinosaurs and their demise is shrouded in such mystery that we may never know the truth about where they came from, when they lived, and what happened to them. However, dinosaurs are only a mystery if you accept the evolutionary story of their history.

According to evolutionists: Dinosaurs first evolved around 235 million years ago, long before man evolved. 1 No human being ever lived with dinosaurs. Their history is recorded in the fossil layers on earth, which were deposited over millions of years. They were so successful as a group of animals that they eventually ruled the earth. However, around 65 million years ago, something happened to change all of this—the dinosaurs disappeared. Most evolutionists believe some sort of cataclysmic event, such as an asteroid impact, killed them. But many evolutionists claim that some dinosaurs evolved into birds, and thus they are not extinct but are flying around us even today. 2

There is no mystery surrounding dinosaurs if you accept the Bible’s totally different account of dinosaur history.

According to the Bible: Dinosaurs first existed around 6,000 years ago. 3 God made the dinosaurs, along with the other land animals, on Day 6 of the Creation Week ( Genesis 1:20–25 , 31 ). Adam and Eve were also made on Day 6—so dinosaurs lived at the same time as people, not separated by eons of time.

Dinosaurs could not have died out before people appeared because dinosaurs had not previously existed; and death, bloodshed, disease, and suffering are a resultof Adam’s sin ( Genesis 1:29–30 ; Romans 5:12 , 14 ; 1 Corinthians 15:21–22 ).

Representatives of all the kinds of air-breathing land animals, including the dinosaur kinds, went aboard Noah’s Ark. All those left outside the Ark died in the cataclysmic circumstances of the Flood, and many of their remains became fossils.

After the Flood, around 4,300 years ago, the remnant of the land animals, including dinosaurs, came off the Ark and lived in the present world, along with people. Because of sin, the judgments of the Curse and the Flood have greatly changed earth. Post-Flood climatic change, lack of food, disease, and man’s activities caused many types of animals to become extinct. The dinosaurs, like many other creatures, died out. Why the big mystery about dinosaurs?
