Onward Christian soldiers

Bottom line: there are religious texts and tomes in all parts of the world from all types of people. Also, you have descendants of people who kept oral records of their theology and religion. Interesting thing is that each are telling a story FROM THEIR PARTICULAR PERSPECTIVE, yet some (if not most) take on a global perspective that the people at the time were physically incapable of knowing.

So yeah, something is going on beyond "science", beyond whatever "faith" you may have. The trick is not to be taken in by dogmatic preachers and such, or painfully obvious hucksterism like the Kentucky Ark. Whatever is going on, no one I know has physically come back from the dead to tell the truth. Just saying.

It seems to me (reading the above ^^^) that you are an ATHEIST, Taichiliberal. That makes sense because a lot of the modern-day, loony, Marxist left in America are :palm:. So, tell me something...when you look up into a clear starry night sky, where does it end? I mean if you imagine that you could be shot up into the night sky in a rocket that could propel itself indefinitely without having to carry fuel (they actually have them now, Taichi) where would "the sky" end? The answer is that it wouldn't, it extends INFINITELY. Now, as you know, things don't just "pop" into existence out of nothing. Have you ever seen a "Big Mac" suddenly "pop" into existence in front of you when you were seated at your dinner table? Have you ever been sitting on your bed and seen a brand new pair of Levis 501 denim jeans just "pop" into existence new to you? Have you ever been at the movies and seen a gorgeous Blonde with big, perky titties and a totally hot figure suddenly "pop" into the empty seat next to you and say: "Hi Handsome" in a smouldering - sexy voice? No, of course you haven't, because things do not just "pop" into existence out of nothing ( ex nihilo)


So, now let's go back to our infinite starry, night sky. It could not just have "popped" spontaneously into existence at some point in time. Right? Because we all know that things don't just "pop" into existence. You've never once seen this happen in your entire life to date, nor have I, nor any other bastard on planet Earth. There is no record of any such thing occurring in the objective, reputable, scientific/historic literature. So, if things can just "pop" into existence ex nihilo it can only mean that the thing we encounter on Earth (including infinite , starry heavens) were CREATED; that they were brought into existence by a CREATOR. So my question to you Taichileftie is WHO THE FUCK created something as awesome as a starry night sky that "goes on" (i.e. extends outward into space") for ever and ever and ever and e....v....e....rrrrrrrr.


Who created this? Whioever it was, I would want to piss them off - because they must have some pretty serious power at their disposal. Right, Taichileftie ?

Ahh, the Nazi dog barks again!

What "seems" to you, genius, is incorrect as usual. I'm an agnostic, bit different from an atheist don't cha know (look it up or have an adult explain it to you). This is why I wrote, "... So yeah, something is going on beyond "science", beyond whatever "faith" you may have." So given that right off the bat the basis for the rest of your screed is wrong, I'm not going to bother with it.

Now, run-a-long and ignore what I said in favor or what you believe. Maybe you should venture to the Ark Park in Kentucky....based on a mindset just like yours. Carry on, my little goose stepping git!

A road trip to Noah’s Ark​

My in-laws took the whole family to a monument to young earth creationism. What could go wrong?​

As the bus rounds the corner, the world’s largest freestanding timber-frame structure comes into view: Kentucky’s architectural claim-to-fame, a replica of a mythic Ancient Near Eastern structure, Noah’s Ark. “I never get sick of this view, praise God,” says our shuttle driver.

Though the Bible never mentions dinosaurs as we know them through the fossil record, there are dozens represented at the Ark Encounter. The museum depicts dinosaurs existing peacefully alongside early humanity.

One plaque asks, Did Noah bring any now-extinct animals onto the ark? Of course, say the curators: “Up to 85 kinds of dinosaurs were on the ark, including 2 Tyrannosaurids, 2 Stegosaurids, 2 Ceratopsids, and 2 Brachiosaruids.” Statues of dinosaurs appear in nearly every cage on the second deck—there’s Dimetrodon, Cotylorhynchus, Scutosaurus, Specimen Snmk Pal 1136, Quetzalcoatlus, and a Tyrannosaurus Rex, among others.

When tallied, these young earth theologians count over 6,500 animals who would have journeyed with Noah for an entire year, several hundred of which were tame or juvenile dinosaurs

New House Speaker Thinks Creationist Museum Is 'Pointing People To The Truth'

An ark replica with dinosaurs "is one way to bring people to this recognition ... that what we read in the Bible are actual historical events,” Mike Johnson said.

Before arriving in Washington less than a decade ago, House Speaker Mike Johnson, a deeply religious Christian, was a legal crusader associated with a fringe evangelical movement called “young Earth creationism,” based on a literal reading of the Bible’s Book of Genesis that posits the Earth is only several thousand years old.

In the mere hours since Johnson was elected speaker Wednesday, he hadn’t had to address his views on creationism and evolution. But his close ties to a leader of the creationist movement and his past legal work — on behalf of the Ark Encounter creationist theme park, where children can learn that dinosaurs were passengers on Noah’s Ark — seem to suggest that he’s also personally aligned with these beliefs.

“The Ark Encounter is one way to bring people to this recognition of the truth, that what we read in the Bible are actual historical events,” Johnson said in a 2021 interview with Ark Encounter founder Ken Ham while*guest-hosting the radio show*of Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, an evangelical activist group.

Complete lie, as usual. There are no dinosaurs depicted as dinosaurs on the Ark at the Ark Encounter. Lie some more.

The sheer stupidity of "creationism" is represented in that Kentucky clown show. Now if you want to start a commotion, go to the "museum" and while meandering through the displays, say this out loud; "Why is it that carbon dating is okay to determine the age of Biblical artifacts and historical artifacts but not dinosaurs?" ;):LOL:

Carbon14 is only used for things less than about 60k years old, but there are other isotopes with longer half lives that will get you back to the Cretaceous and Jurassic.

The move the fundamentalists try to make is by noting there uncertainties with radiometric dating, therefore the whole project of dating is unreliable. (rolls eyes)

What's hard to sweep under the carpet is that dinosaurs went extinct 65 million years before Noah supposedly lived, lol.

... which is much better than teaching children about the WACKY Climate Change faith and to worship hosts of physics violations as thettled thienth! It's criminal what leftists do to children, especially leftists who protect Epstein's Democrat sex tourists.

Now if you want to start a commotion, go to a gaggle of warmizombies and while mentioning Climate's thenthitivity to greenhouse gas, ask this out loud; "Why is it that all precipitation changes imposed by Climate are punishments instead of being the same effect for the entire planet? i.e. precipitation decreases in dry areas to make droughts, but increases in wet areas to cause floods? What chemical reactions take geographical location into account when deciding their resulting effect?
