Subject: A thought about the Flood |
Bible Note: Let's not confuse things, please. It is one thing to take a measurement, such as the amount of c14 in the atmosphere currently, the amount in the various rings of a tree I just chopped down, and the amount in oil just pumped out of the ground. (none) It is another to debate the meaning of those measurements. The facts, the repeatable experiments can be tested. The meaning, whether you are convinced the world is flat or the sun revolves around the earth, or the earth is 6,000 or 5 billion years old is the debate on the interpretation. I clearly stated That I love to debate these interpretations or theories of science. Similarly, I believe in each and every word in the Bible. I will compare wild beasts to beasts of the field (Gen 1-3) and debate the meaning or interpretation of the terms. I will even accept two competing interpretations as equally likely. I will not accept one institutes interpretation of the Word just because they believe it, especially if other equally vaild interpretations also fit each and every word of scripture. The roadblock is not Creation as expressed in the Bible, but the very bad science some Christians use. Your last sentance is the one I wholeheartedly agree with. Science has even proven various facets of it. Greentwiga |
