High school is a waste of time anyway. All they 'teach' you is forced, superficial knowledge of stuff that has nothing to do with being successful in life. And all the stuff they teach you is...

It definitely affects young earth creationism.

Creation is a religious belief, not a theory in a scientific sense. And show me one legitimate, secular university that teaches creation along with evolution.

He had free will in the beginning, but chose his own way. Now, God is just reinforcing the consequence of his predetermined action.

So would you rather be a mindless robot serving God for eternity? That's the only other possibility.


This 'paradox' is just an incomprehension of God's qualities, kind of like the notion of...

I meant to say Jews don't use the overall Bible, only the Old Testament. And it's only messy to those who are willfully ignorant. Those who really want to know about God's truth will understand what...

Jews and Christians both use the Old Testament while Christians also use the New Testament. The Bible is the combination of the Old Testament and New Testament. Both don't use the same overall book....

You're right. There's conflicting beliefs about the specifics of Christianity. The major things about Christianity are well established. Important things like salvation by accepting Jesus Christ as...

There is no mess. The main point of the Bible is to love and follow God. And the majors of the Bible such as salvation are clearly apparent. That's understandable in every language the Bible is...

It's not God's fault that people don't study the original language and interpret the Bible based on their own language. If the majority of the world really wanted to understand the precise meaning of...

It's obvious that you haven't studied Biblical Hebrew since the Hebrew word for day(yom) has multiple definitions...

"From an unused root meaning to be hot; a day (as the warm hours), whether...

Even if the universe is eternal, there's no you could prove it. There's no way you could prove that the universe is going to exist in 74.5 trecentillion years. So, ultimately it remains a purely...

We wouldn't have absolute free will then.


Just because God knows, doesn't mean He chooses our actions. If you lift your hand right now, it's not because God predetermined you to do it but it's...

What's so funny about that? The classical Hebrew word 'yom' or 'day' has three literal definitions. A 24 hour day, 12 hour day or a unspecified period of time. It would be pretty confusing and...

Smart Theist: I think this is how the universe began, let's see if the evidence supports it or not.

Ok, I think I made my point and you made your point.

"This statement already tacitly assumes the existence of C&E. After all, if it doesn't break, there is nothing to break. So yes, you did assume causality exists in an extra-universal dimension."
...

Thank you for responding.

"In the first place, why assume that cause and effect even exists in an extra-universal dimension?"

I don't assume causality exists in a extra-universal dimension. In...

Well, sure in a extra-universal dimension, cause and effect could be broken. But no such thing as ever been scientifically observed. So, it remains a metaphorical belief. And I could also use the...

Well, IMO that's very unlikely.
