I read somewhere it is imposible to clone prime apes including Ourselves. Many monkey clone fetuses all died in the Fetuses stage and have yet to show one that survived past birth.
That was pretty recent info.
1. The bible doesnt give a exact amount of time that it had taken to create the earth.The Hewbrew word Day doesnt mean 24 hours or a thousand years , It means a certain orderd passage of time. so really it could be in the millions , plus it also states in early Genesis that the earth was a faceless waste before god brought creation to it , suggesting the earth itself existed before life sprouted on it.I believe the dinosaus existed as genesis did speak of walking ,flying ,swimming monsters and beast before man.
2. As for believing in god out of fear , I can say personally the reason I maintain faith is the good it does for me ,giving me real meaning as before I found god I thought I was garbage , I constantly belittled myself I had no hope for the future or no real personal esteem or value for myself.I feel many of my peers could use some sense of direction since Suicide is a major problem as is depression.
3. If any of you studied the bible beyond searching for sopposed holes or contridictions, you might learn that the knowledge and wisdom is logical in itself , Jesus was a good exmaple at how people should be he never turned away anyone that asked for help even his opposers.This is were god can speak to you and you can speak to him.
4. As for not wanting to obbey god , it would be the same as parents not even teach their kids anything just let them do whatever they want imagine how messed society would be.How selfish it would be.
I exmaine gods laws and see the impact and damage if they are disobeyed so I come to the conclusion he knows whats best for us.Questioning his laws and examining them is acceptable since you will learn why they exist and are that important.
5. Another rediculous claim by atheist that the rising of red sea never happened in the exodus , saying the water was only 3 inches high at that time of the year so anybody could have crossed , Yet they forget somehow Pharaoh and armies are sopposed to drown somehow? I dont see hundres of soldier drown in 3 inches of water.

Quote:There is one thing I'll admit: It is impossible to say that there is no god. However, the chance that there is is so remote that the possibility is about as big as the possibility that the universe was created one second ago exactly as it is now. Like god, that is an issue that you can't disprove... I mean, if the universe and everything it was just created exactly as it is, then you'd never know it... and if got existed and did stuff to create the universe whenever you say he did (does anyone actually still think the world is 6000 years old?) also can't be disproved... but the idea makes about as much sense...
