My point was that the things I feel and experience are measurable.
Then could you explain how they are measurable?

So what implications do these passages have? That God is the ultimate standard, one which all standards refer back to, and a standard beyond which no appeal can be made: "For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him." (Col. 1:16). He has no beginning, nor end; but all observable things that are on the earth do indeed have a beginning, and an end.
No it just shows that the story-tellers had an imagination.

Re: Correct, but uselessly so
There are plenty of points, you just choose to ignore them, and explain them away to more rational(earthly) things.
Please show some of these points.

Re: Correct, but uselessly so
Well I expressed some of them in this thread, and throughout this forum. Not trying to be a wise guy, but you could read the bible, and not take it out of context by going to a reputable bible study.
That is one of the problems. If one goes to a Bible study from church A and then to one from Church B, one gets to different interpretations of a Biblical story, totally subjective. Back when I was still theist, I had gone to six different Christian denomination churches and that was like going to six different universes.

He wrote down with His own finger
That makes a lot of sense. (sarcasm to those who don't know my type of writing) How could Moses understand the writing when there was no formal writing at the time. What did god write in Cuneiform, Hieroglyphics? There was no alphabet at the time.

Re: Correct, but uselessly so
I would be interested to know upon what grounds you claim that there was no alphabet (or "alephbet").
wiki writes:
The Proto-Sinatic or Proto-Canaanite script eventually developed into the Proto-Canaanite alphabet, which in turn was refined into the Phoenician alphabet. The oldest text in Phoenician script is an inscription on the sarcophagus of King Ahiram. This script is the parent script of all western alphabets. By the tenth century two other forms can be distinguished namely Canaanite and Aramaic. The Aramaic gave rise to Hebrew.
Alphabet - Wikipedia
There was no Hebrew alphabet until at least the 10th century BCE whereas the so called Exodus was somewhere between the 13th to 16th centuries BCE.
