    Genesis 2

    The specific time is not recorded in the bible. But science tells us that this was sometime between 5 and 10k bc. It doesn't require any "trying". Convenient, but ultimately predictable. Barring personal attacks, the debtor who lacks substance is generally the debater who cuts and runs. There is...

    Genesis 2

    No they don't. I have presented NOTHING that you can prove to be nonfactual. But I did demonstrate some of your alleged facts to be erroneous. Your OPINION is noted. But you have yet to justify this opinion with any biblical facts. First of all I don't recall making such a claim on this thread...

    Genesis 2

    Yes, I did. The day of the lord is 7 years. The day when God created heavens and the earth is at least 6 days. Adam doesn't die on day the "day" when God created the heavens and the earth. These are biblical proofs that days are not specifically 24 hours. Keep up!

    Genesis 2

    So you say! I've just given you facts about the bible that YOU have chosen to ignore. Is this not hypocrisy at its worst? I thought we were discussing GENESIS here? I like it how when people can't back up their argument that Genesis is wrong, they have to turn to criticism of other books. In...

    Genesis 2

    Of course it did. That isn't in question (straw man argument). The question is WHAT DO DAYS MEAN? And I've already proven that they don't necessarily mean 24 hours, and that in the context of creation, it is impossible for them to mean that. Your argument absolutely requires these days to be 24...

    Genesis 2

    I'm NOT ignoring that. You're making a straw man argument. It doesn't HAVE TO say it. It only has to CONTRADICT IT in order to be wrong. Show me where the bible contradicts that. And if your argument is that it says "six days" and that by extension days MUST refer to 24 hours, then you are doing...

    Genesis 2

    Saying something over and over again doesn't make it true. What "facts" am I supposedly going against exactly? I'm still waiting for someone to actually come up with one of these alleged facts. So far, all I've got is people making the claim over and over again. :sleep:

    Genesis 2

    I suggest you refer back to my previous responses on this thread. The bible DOESN'T contradict scientific evidence. Scientific evidence actually confirms biblical truths about the universe. In order to come up with an interpretation that creates a contradiction between the bible and science, you...

    Genesis 2

    For as often as people on here are accusing me of taking things out of context, it amazes me at how much people misapply the intent of scripture to suit a belief that is inherently illogical. First of all notice that the "days" are not defined in terms of hours in that verse. The reason it isn't...

    Genesis 2

    Of course I will not agree. Done so WHERE? Done so HOW? Nobody has yet provided an answer to the previous contradictions I've laid out. I know what eisegesis means, but you're still missing my point. I can (and have) reconcile my interpretation with scripture. Nobody else here has been able to...

    Genesis 2

    You're entitled to your opinion. But your opinion remains unjustified unless you can back it up with an argument of substance. I believe that if there was any validity to this claim, you'd be able to provide an answer for the contradictions I've exposed in the alternative explanation of the...

    Cain having free will to murder

    Insults are irrelevant and typically a sign of desperation. Again, I know what I said. I don't need it read back to me. Right. This is YOUR assessment, not MINE. I never said anything about "hell". In fact, I'm sure that we don't even have the same view of hell. Regardless, it is still freedom...

    Genesis 2

    Show me! Show me ANY verse in the bible that declares that implies that a day always means 24 hours! :rolleyes: But somehow it gets perverted. But you're perverting it yourself. If "night" is the opposite of "day", and night represents 12 hours, then day by definition cannot be 24 hours! At...

    Genesis 2

    How do you qualify these statements? You say my interpretation is "baseless", yet there are many reasons from which I have drawn my conclusion. 1) The fact that "day" doesn't mean 24 hours in this case is backed up by the fact that Adam did NOT die within 24 hours. In order for day to mean 24...

    Cain having free will to murder

    I remember what I said, and I remember what I did not say. And I never said that "it wasn't much of a choice". That's what YOU said! Capisce? :) They absolute can and DO. It doesn't work with YOUR definition of free will. But I do not accept your definition (an neither does anyone else who goes...
