Arachnophilia, The bible being Gods truth to man
actually, the bible is man's words about god's truth. and no, it's not splitting hairs. it's a big difference. if the bible were god's truth -- well, i wouldn't think it wise to trust god, since he can't even seem to get simple stories right when asked to repeat himself. nevermind that the ten commandments change the second time god gives them.
says that man was made in his image
literal or figurative?
have a hard time understanding why you would support fraud in museums that go contrary to what you believe to be truth (you do believe the Word to be True).
because you're missing the fun hebrew grammar there. the tense of "made" actually indicates a subtlety in the creation story not properly rendered in english. it indicates that there was a process used to create man, that it took some work.
there are LOTS of theistic evolutionists. you can believe in god and think he used evolution to create man.
and no, i don't think "The Word" to be "True." the word, as an entity, is an english rendering of a bad aramaic rendering of god. here, god's name was memra, which means "to speak." the name was applied to god the father, not his son. john misunderstood this tradition. you're also confusing god and the book about god. idolatry is a sin, btw.
These museum curators are criminals, and should be prosecuted.
kent hovind? i agree. tax fraud is a nasty business, nevermind perverting the minds of ignorant youth.
Millions of dollars to have artists put human hands on chimp fossils
hah. this isn't "the art of star wars" here. these are fossils. fakes are weeded out relatively easily to even the slightest trained eye.
oh, and lets disregard hands.

see how it's neither chimp nor human? also, lucy is NOT the only austrolopithecus found you know.
The bible says man was made in his image, hopefully you agree with the Great Kent Hovind that Lucy human hands and feet is simply not truth, if so then the Lucy display education value is moot (of no value).
kent hovind is a liar and a fraud. this is not an ad hominem argument. the things he puts forward are lies. even answersingenesis thinks so, and i doubt they agree with me.
