Biblical Literalism: Can it be true yet symbolic?

a) that's not a prediction
b) if it was a prediction as to tomorrows sky colour, it wouldn't be a particularily noteworthy oneIf you were to predict a sky tomorrow which was coloured green and big red and blue polka dots on it that would be more in keeping with what Herepton was talking about

People who think they have all the answers don't usually understand the question

No, but if you promise to rise from the dead and do the I would be very impressed with you indeed

Presumably two predictions of any kind doesn't logically infer infallibility. Nor 3,4,5,10,1000,1,000,000. Infallibility is logically impossible.Logically however, cows, given sufficient leg muscle and a desire to do so, can jump over the moon. So I wonder if logical is the measure with which we should be measuring.Maybe probablility would be a better tool to use to weigh things upWhat is the probability of someone predicting day of death, the form of death, the duration for which they would be dead and that they would rise again after that time. It would be easier to pick winning lotto numbers I imagine.

What your saying is that it is a physical impossibility. This is true. But I didn't say it was a physical possibility but a logical possibility. Logic possibility is not = to physical impossibility(The thought of cows being accelerated at vast rates of changes of speeds is somewhat amusing when one considers the physical side of things)

You're misunderstanding the area that logic deals with Crash. You are inserting the word "logically" in here when the actual correct word you need to use is "physically". Insert and read and you will see that that is what you meanPhysically not the same thing as logically. Logic in this case deals with if/then/or/and/nor/not statements. It doesn't care whether it is physically possible for those statements to be true.IF the muscles were powerful enough AND the cow felt the urge THEN the cow would jump over the moon.

Is an if/then statement a logical statement?

So, is there anything wrong with the logic statement IF muscles AND desire THEN cows will jump over the moon?

Hpw about this one: IF muscles AND if will AND if evolutionary progresses enough THEN a cow will jump over the moon.Remember before answering, the relative progression that evolution has made from single celled organism to cheetah

Cows have, were it to evolve sufficiently, a methane powered directional thruster rocket at their...er.. disposalBut I take you point re: topic

Some simple evolution could sort that out. Udders that can get pumped up to ginormous proportions. Is methane lighter than air? If not there is the alternative : the same methane powered booster rocket I referred to before could be deployed VTOL style
