That's all nice, now how do you leap from the idea that something had to trigger to big bang to all of that bullshit again? I think even most rednecks can grasp that the idea that agreeing to the idea that something created the universe in no way supports your specific theology or any of the thousands of others out there, can you? BTW, I've been monogamous to my wife for the 25 years since we married. Not because some imaginary being said I had to, turns out I'm actually capable of developing my own morals without someone having to dictate them to me. But I could give fuck-all if some woman wants to have sex with multiple men or women for that matter. And I sure as heck don't think that believing some entity created the universe has any relevance to that in the slightest. BTW, back to wwjd, take a look at Matthew 7:1-5. Judge much?
Like I said, it's in the bible. And if you have ever tried to read it, which it sound like you have since you can quote Matthew, it talks about how the Earth was made and how the Earth is floating in space. This information dates back thousands of years ago before they even knew how the Earth was being supported. The bible was written thousands of years ago, so that in itself should give you evidence to realize the Bible was written from God. There are also other scientific and artifacts that where found that support the bible as well. Well it's good you have morals. But don't you think that if you gave someone a place to live that they should abide by your rules of the house? Or do you think they should be free to do whatever they want in your house? Yes that is a good scripture. But did I ever say anything to give you the assumption that I am judging? You're free to live your own life. I'm just here to encourage you to search for answers if you really want them. And if you don't want to search for answers or live a life I don't agree with, then hey, it was good talking to you, have a great day.
I think jumping to these conclusions is a tad simplistic. Imo, the bible is a social political document contrived by the Jews, who no doubt are intelligent and cunning. Bible written by God? Absolute nonsense imo! That's just religous spiel to justify all the bullshit it contains and the half truths. The world as we know it revolves around Jewish mythology, the Western world is hooked on the 'Jewish drug' of bullshit. Well and truly hooked! Give the Jews credit, I don't know any other race which has been so effective with brainwashing so many earthlings with their "Jews are the master race blessed by god". South America had a very advanced civilisation, but you don't hear about that because it's drowned out by brainwashed bible cultists clamour.
Well sounds like you've already made up your mind about the bible even though I have given you a scientific example. Have you ever tried reading the bible? No where does it ever say anything about the Jews being a superior race or else that would be racist. Now it does talk a lot about the Jewish civilization because Jesus was a Jew. Just like if he was Chinese, then there would be a lot of Chinese talk. Make sense? Never heard of the South American civilization. Care to elaborate?
Just like you've made up your mind. Mate, read it numerous times, you do that when brainwashed like I once was. Yup, will post link shortly.

When the Bible has a contradiction, at least one of the statements must be false. https://americanhumanist.org/what-is-humanism/reasons-humanists-reject-bible/
Interesting, I can't sit here and decypher them all. But One that didn't make sense to me is when you said Genesis 8:13 describes the earth as being dry on the first day of the first month. But Genesis 8:14 informs us the earth was not dry until the twenty-seventh day of the second month. If you read it in the Bible it says in Genesis 8:13 that "Noah saw that the ground was drying" Meaning that it was probably very muddy. Now if you keep reading in Genesis 8:14 It says "The earth had dried off" This makes perfect sense to me. And why would the writer make the stupid mistake of contradicting on just 1 verse later? The Earth was drying, meaning it wasn't completely dry yet, there was probably sloshy mud everywhere and big puddles and lakes everywhere. Makes sense that later on it would say the Earth was "Dried off".
Very interesting. I don't deny that that never existed, but I'm sure the bible doesn't cover every detail of everything on the Earth 2000 years ago. I'm sure the Amazonians had their own beliefs as well.
