Re: The Bible
If the bible is true its all true it can't be kind of true cause one error discredits the entire thing.
How so?
You mean that your telling me that if we can conclude that the earth was not made before the sun, like Genesis says, then Jesus' message of loving our neighbor must be false as well!?
That is preposterous!
How weak does your faith have to be to say that if there is one error then I'm throwing the whole thing out?
Your faith is a house of cards.
Its statements like the one you made that almost make me ashamed to call myself a christian.

Yes in deed it is impossible in our times under ourconditions. If you look at the atmoshperical difference from then till now (aka post flood) life spans have decreased rapidly. Yes as modern medicine improves life span grows, but since the water canopy was let go and the biblical flood ended the oxygen levels have decreased and the radation levels have increased.
But you just made all that up (or someone else did).
This is a perfect example of something I despise.
Instead of looking at evidence and coming to a conclusion, you are coming to a conclusion and then looking for a way that 'evidence' can be twisted and spun to fit within that conclusion.
We see Biblical Literalists do it all the time. When given an obvious contradiction in the Bible, any explanation that they can think of, or make up, that maintains inerrancy in the Bible but also somewhat conforms to reality is the explantation that they "choose" to believe in.
Basically they want to have their cake and eat it too.
There is no extra-Biblical reason pointing to a water canopy or a change in the atmosphere that would lead to shorter life spans. This is just bullshit that someone made up to forge a plausible explantion for what the Bible claims. It is pretty much lying.
These certainly are christians that have no honor.

You can'y prove me qrong
:laughs:
You can't type
And if your theory can't be falsified then it is bullshit.
The reason I'm incapable of proving you wrong is becuase you have no honor like the thread is questioning. Anything I say you will just deny. It would be futile for me to try.

Wait a minute I was under the impression if a theory can't be disproven than it is a LAW not bull.
ZOMG! you don't even know the basics....
A theory has to be falsifiable or its junk. Click here.
How does me having no honor make you not be able to prove me wrong.
You have to have the honor to not be disingenuous and pedantic. Otherwise, you'll just deny deny deny.
You will put yourself in a position where you just cannot be convinced and then deny the evidence piece by piece. That is dishonorable.
Could it be I can't be?
About the water canopy and ~1000 year old humans? No, you cannot be correct.
Besides, it not up to me to prove you wrong. You should prove yourself right. You've made the claim.
