I have a question IceDancer. If a human was cloned would you consider the result to be God created or man created?

an eternal being doesn't "come from" anywhereSo where do they come from then?
an eternal being doesn't "come from" anywhere
So what is this being? I'm assuming he isn't a white guy with a long grey beard and robes.
What does Tcnyaw mean?Tcnyaw, Tom, under gooseberry bushes, of course.
What does Tcnyaw mean?
Alpha and Omega. God's personal claim of existence. Meaning he did not come into being- he always was. And yes, belief in a personal being with creative power, that has always existed, is OK.
an eternal being doesn't "come from" anywhere
This is special pleading. You wouldn't accept that anything else is OK simply because it has "always existed", and yet you pretend it's enough evidence for God. What if the universe has always existed? There are theories which allow for an omni-verse which has always existed that many big bangs occur in, of which our big bang is only one occurrence. And so what if it hasn't always existed? This is the compositional fallacy - simply because everything in the universe had a beginning doesn't mean the universe itself had to have one. Another example of this fallacy would be:
Just as logical.
- Human cells are invisible to the naked eye.
- Humans are made up of human cells.
- Therefore, humans are invisible to the naked eye
It means that sound you make when you state the obvious. Well, maybe not the sound you make, more the sound I make. Anyway, its a free country and I can say Tcnaw and own a gun and believe in fairies and worship Sarah Palin if I jolly well want to.What does Tcnyaw mean?
Fact #69 Cunning linguistics cannot make up for a fallacious argument.

Believe in the Holy Squirrel. Let every man gather together in the name of the Grand Fairy of Bacup and put his nuts on display. Thus spake the Grand fairy. It is the truth, for the Grand Fairy and the Holy Squirrel are BOTH eternal. Two beats one!

your error is to pretend we are trying to use this as evidence God exists.......this issue only comes up when some brainless atheist thinks he can debunk religious beliefs by pretending God had to have had a beginning......the fact is, there is simply no such requirement......
Have I got this right? This eternal being existed before the formation of the universe? Is that right? If 'no' then of course he she or it is not eternal.
If the answer is 'yes', why did he take so long to come up with human beings? And if his first try was dinosaurs and things then did he make them in his own image?
And would it have been a Tyranosaurus Rex or a Polypterus Senegalus or something in between?
Did these creatures, his first attempt at creation, also have a holy book and did that book also say that only Brontosauruses of a certain sexual persuasion would inherit the kingdom of heaven?
And is there any room left in heaven with all his first choice beings stomping around and eating all the trees and pretty flowers.
