What is your favorite story from the Bible?

[JakeStarkey]

I love where Trump Herod dies of weevils eating him up from the inside.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

My real fave story though would have been the one about the aliens, but someone edited it out.

Because Australia wasn't a separate continent before the flood.
Try reading the verse about the subterranean waters that came to the surface.
But that would require actually reading.

"Because Australia wasn't a separate continent before the flood."

haha....WHAT?!?! What is this insane nonsense you are peddling?

It's not insane nonsense.
Scientists have been theorizing for at least a hundred years that the continents started splitting away from each other sometime in the past.
Your problem is instant hatred of anything to do with God.
But you know, if a scientist sort of agrees with anything that a Bible commentator wrote several hundred years ago then, well, God hate steps in.

Yes, it's nonsense. We know the continent of Australia was separate 30 million years ago. There were no humans 30 million years ago.

Yes, it's nonsense. And it is particularly insane nonsense, given that these facts are available to anyone with an internet connection or a library.

As in, there is NO excuse for what you are saying.

And spare me your dimestore psychogy...the above are facts, no matter what I had for breakfast. Your opinion of me has zero bearing on that.

 

[Moonglow]

Deuteronomy 22:28-29 NAB
If a man is caught in the act of raping a young woman who is not engaged, he must pay fifty pieces of silver to her father. Then he must marry the young woman because he violated her, and he will never be allowed to divorce her.

That's worse than prison..

Are you going to ignore the fossil evidence?

Except that the Bible explicitly states that the subterranean waters came to the surface which obviously aged all strata of earth.
But then you'd actually have to read the story and we can't have that.

 

[Picaro]

I have to say my favorite is a toss up between The Book of Ezekiel and Revelations.

Job, followed by Isaiah, re the OT. John and Romans in the NT.

 

[Picaro]

And, re 'Herod', there are four of them, not one, for those unaware of that fact.

 

[Indeependent]

I have to say my favorite is a toss up between The Book of Ezekiel and Revelations.

Job, a righteous non-Jew, may have been written by Moshe.

 

[Likkmee]

My fave story is the flood, because nobody can tell me how Noah got kangaroos from Australia and back again.

I can. "2 of each kind". Marsupial > many types the size of rabbits are now extinct. Noahs ark was a DNA bank. Any decent geneticist can today take a marsupial gene and(theoretically) mod it according to a map.Kangaroo ? Hold my beer !
Bovine, Equine, Psittacine, Reptile, Amphibian. Get it fool ?

I didn't appreciate the nuances in Job until I read William Safire's exegesis and commentaries on the book. Can't explain why I like Isaiah, I just do. Whoever wrote Job and Isaiah were literary and intellectual geniuses of the first order, so I can entirely believe Moses wrote Job.

Uh...what? How did that "age" the strata of the Earth? And now you are straying into the, "god used miracles to fool all the scientists" territory. At which point, there's really no debate to be had...anything can happen, in "magic world!"

The world was one giant continent back then.

Its not magic. It's genetic manipulation by someone(or non human thing--similar in appearance) that is far smarter than some slave that owes 22 grand to a Joo for his F150 pickmup twuck. Tradition says his name was Yahvey. And there were many with him

That doesn't matter one iota. Empirical evidence is empirical evidence. It doesn't care what Jaysus watches on TV on Sundays. That's why it is so valuable.

Genetic manipulation? By what mechanism, what physical forces? what cause and effect?

yes, it's magical bullshit.
