Re: Elijah?
it wasn't ISAIAH who was able to do this to the axis...but G-O-D!!! Man, where do these guys come from? You are losing your grip
It's just a story. It never happened that the Sun stood still i.e. that the earth stopped rotating. It's probably a metaphor like when Einstein was asked to explain relativity and he said, "Put your hand on a hot stove for a minute, and it seems like an hour. Sit with a pretty girl for an hour, and it seems like a minute."

Re: Elijah?
How? It was a part of there history just like we Americans have ours and we record it...they did the same.
It was the same sort of part of their history as the story of George Washington cutting down a cherry tree when he was a boy is a part of ours. It's a famous story but it never happened. A preacher made it up as a moral example. Typical preacher trick telling a lie to foster the virtue of truthfulness!

Re: Elijah?
C'mon, use that brain a little.
Oh, I get it. Don't do as you do. Do as you say.
You must have read the secret section of the guide lines for this website. The one that says you dont' really have to provide evidence for you assertions as long as you charge those who dispute you to find your evidence for you. very cool!
