Hi jar,

I'm sorry. I don't play word games.
You could have fooled me on this one.
jar writes:
Genesis 1 says the Sun was created on day four.
Be specific, which verse says the Sun was created on day four?
Where do you find כרא used in Genesis 1 concerning the Sun?
jar writes:
Genesis 1 says the Earth was created on day 1.
That is impossible.
But that statement is not in Genesis 1.
Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
This says the Earth was created in the beginning along with the heaven.
It does not put a date of beginning to exist anywhere in the book. It only says in the beginning.
jar writes:
Genesis 1 says nothing about the sun appearing on day four.
It sure does not say anything about the Sun being created on day four.
But from day four the Sun was visible from the Earth.
jar writes:
Genesis 1 says that grasses and seed bearing plants were the first plants.
Genesis 1 says no such thing.
1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
This verse says the earth was to produce the grass seed yeilding herb and fruit trees from the seed that was on the earth.
Seed being on the earth would require plants to have existed to produce those seed. So no these plants were not the first plants.
jar writes:
Genesis 1 says that grasses and sed bearing plants were created before the sun.
Well no the earth was told to produce the plants from the seed that was in the ground prior to the work done on the sun.
There is no Hebrew word in Genesis 1 that refers to the creation of the sun.
If you can find the Hebrew word כרא in Genesis concerning the Sun please point it out.
jar writes:
Genesis 1 is simply incorrect.
You made that statement 3 times in your post to me.
Your claim has been refuted.
The problem is not that Genesis 1 is incorrect. The problem is that jar has no idea what Genesis 1 says.
So jar is simply incorrect.
God Bless,

"John 5:39 (KJS) Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."

So let's look and see what Genesis 1 actually says.
quote:
1In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
The first day. The Heaven and the earth get created.

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Re: Chronology
quote:
There is no magical forces in physics creating solar systems nor any other conglomeration of objects. Gravity is too weak to originate any assembly of anything.
No, there's no magical forces, but gravity (whilst the weakest of the four known forces) certainly is powerful enough to pull planets together. Gravity keeps the sun burning, gravity pulled this planet and all other planets in this and all other star systems together. Gravity keeps our planet in the solar system, orbiting the sun, and it keeps the moon orbiting the earth. It may be a weak force, but it's all-pervasive throughout this universe.
quote:
And there is no filter mechanism by which to produce the planets as they now exist.
Actually...there is. That filter is called "heat". The sun is quite hot, right? this heat acts upon the atoms and molecules floating around out in space. Gravity acts to pull these atoms and molecules together, so they naturally "clump". Heat from the sun on the other hand makes them expand (particularly when they are gaseous). Long story short, as you get nearer the sun, you only get heavier and heavier elements in greater numbers, the lighter elements having been "boiled off".
Mercury and venus have no liquid water, they're too hot. Mercury, infact, is almost all metal. Venus is hotter than mercury thanks to it's atmosphere...but it only has an atmosphere because it's further out than mercury. The further out you go, the more volatile elements you'll find, all thanks to heat and gravity.
Now, this explanation is rather dumbed down to match the audience, but the core of it should help you understand what's going on.
OT, but interesting - read asimov's "extra terrestrial civilizations" for a better (and more correct!) treatment of this.

That old Chestnut
I have seen this OP brought up in at least two other forums on a regular consistent basis. It's an idea that certainly is never constipated. Unfortunately.
So it's not an original thought. There are ZERO "contradictions" or errors between Genesis 1 and Genesis 2. The only erroneous thing going on here is the OP.
I'm not sure how and or why people can expect to be taken seriously when inane posts like this are put forward, especially given that it is to do with accuracy and inerrancy.
One has to be in the mood for a pointless argument to even bother lifting a finger on this one. I've debated it with people until I am blue in the face and ready to be carried out to an ambulance on a gurney "MEDIC!" Finally after hours of mindless banter and profundity (along the never ending deep abyss kind) the penny finally drops.
Is there ever any admission of mistake or an apology? Of course not. Then a few days weeks or months pass and another "all comer" posts the same ridiculous argument.
I'm very new here, first post (go figure). Seeing this post feels like ground hog day. Also of note, a humungous proportion of posts in this thread appear to have absolutely nothing to do with the original post?
Any way, hi all.

You lifted a finger to join the forum. You might as well lift it again and reply substantively to some of the points made.

Re: That old Chestnut
I lifted a finger to join the forum indeed, very observant of you. But not so much to join this thread debate (not so observant of you).
The premise and statement in the OP is one of two things 1. a deceptive intentional LIE or 2. Written by someone who can not read.
My first substantive point made clear enough my views on the first post.
Nice hat by the way. Do you have anything substantial to add or is this your way of "welcoming" me to the forum?

You didn't make a substantive point. You gave an unsupported opinion.

You're welcome to respond to any of the points made in the thread but ranting is not particularly welcome on this site.

Re: That old Chestnut
You're a member not a moderator right?
It appears posts that are lies are welcome here, is that correct??? Because I don't see any point in hanging about here if they are.
As I have said, I have done this stupid non arguement to death mate. It's foolishness not to mention a baseless lie.
Has anyone managed to clearly point out what the illedged differences or contradictions are between G1 and G2 no? They have only demonstrated their ignorance so until someone does, I will continue to state that the premise in the original post is a lie and not worthy of further comment.

Posts are expected to advance the topic and be backed up by evidence and/or reasoning. If you think a post is a "lie" or in error, you're welcome to explain why.

Obviously the poster is incapable
I figure since he has made 3 posts and has not backed up anything up yet, then he has nothing. He definitely qualifies as the the most inept apologist we have seen in a while.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

Re: That old Chestnut
If this site is a legitimate bonifide intelligent even playing field and not just a "kick the shit of out of the creation view point" FRONT then the first post in this thread would have been shut down before it spawned legs and evolved into a complete mind f---!!
The most inept appologetics you've seen in a while?? HAH Don't make me laugh.
This ain't apologetics mate and the field of apologetics deserves an apology from you for thinking it is.
From the man with Facts are Facts as his signature too!!!????

TIme to move on
Either make an argument or move on.
As of yet you have not backed up any of your assertions. So that says to me that you have nothing to back them up with.
We have rules here. You might want to read them.
The Rules
#4 pertains particular to you and your meaningless posts.
quote:
#4 Points should be supported with evidence and/or reasoned argumentation. Address rebuttals through the introduction of additional evidence or by enlarging upon the argument. Do not repeat previous points without further elaboration. Avoid bare assertions.
Oh yeah you want to present some facts? I didn't think so.

Facts don't lie or have an agenda. Facts are just facts

Re: That old Chestnut
For future reference, when you click the Reply button at the bottom of my post, it links to my post and it looks like you're replying to my post. In this case, you were replying to Theodoric, so you should have clicked the Reply button at the bottom of his post. Also, you can use the Peek button to see how quotes are done so it's easier to follow who you're yelling at.

Re: That old Chestnut
The original post, (which is what I am addressing, not what ever side show you and your collegue here have been entertaining yoursleves with), needs to substantiate itself first and back itself up, which it has not done - it is for want of a better word, a false statement.
It would be like me starting a thread stating something like; Dawkins contradicts himself on page 23 of the God Delusion by stating that there are no such thing as Dinosaurs when in page 25 he clearly states that he quite fancies a brontesaurous burger and chips of an evening, after a hard day blowing hot air. Then expecting an evolutionist to enter into an "Apologetic" debate with me. Laughable I know but thats exactly what your up to here. I'm calling you on it.
Cheers.
PS THE ORIGINAL POST BREAKS RULE NUMBER 4 and probably more rules than that aswell. OKAY PAL??? IS THAT CLEAR??????????
