especially because there would have been no such thing as a "day" before he created the Sun and the Earth to rotate in respect to the sun's light, by which pattern the concept "day" could be defined. man, do literalists ever crack me up. |

*"God put those there to test our faith."
"I think god put you here to test my faith."
*The preceding has been brought to you by the late comedian Bill Hicks, who died because of cigarettes. No, it wasn't the cigarettes that killed him, it was the non-smokers he could not outrun. |

//remembers Bill Hicks
//dies laughing
(well, not of laughter, but of the non-laughers that i could not outrun :P )
EDIT: for those of you who don't get it - just about everybody :P - Bill Hicks was one of the funniest men ever to live. Rev was just referring to a bit he does about dinosaurs in the bible (rather, the lack thereof). i originally tried to paraphrase some of it from memory; but then i listened to that part of the album and realized i had butchered it horribly. here is the mp3 (approx. 6MB) so you can enjoy the original in all his splendor: http://flopjocks.keenspace.com/dinosaurs.mp3 for reference in the opening bit, this was recorded at the start of Clinton's first term, i guess around 1997. political references aside, what he has to say about fundamentalism is just as relevent today, if not more so.

DTrix... that is a very very good point...
I'm going to remember that for the next time I have this sort of conversation. |

Out of sheer curiosity..If God created man/woman in his/her/its own image and people have suicidal tendencies...Then does God himself/herself/itself have suicidal tendencies of their own? And if they did....How would they accomplish it? |

And if God created Man and Woman in his own image then doesn't that means he's a hermaphrodite? And, yes, the part about the Dinosaurs is a very good one. I can hear it now:
"So God created Dinosaurs just to kill them and bury them as a giant fake out to make us think that he hadn't actually created the world in the way he did?"
"Yes! I mean No! I mean...."
"Point."

Here's one that's really gonna bake your noodle...
If God can do anything, can he create a rock so heavy that not even he can lift it? |

Sure he could, as long as you can believe that god is a fallible entity. |
