How do you shape dirt? Add water and turn it into mud, or if you prefer clay or slime. Even the metaphor says clay.


Isaiah 29:16 You turn things upside down, as if the potter were thought to be like the clay! Shall what is formed say to the one who formed it, "You did not make me"? Can the pot say to the potter, "You know nothing"?

That is total nonsense, not backed by any creditable evidence, completely made up, and it still implies God messed up.

Nonsense. Genesis explains that men messed up, not God. You imply that you're not familiar with Genesis and what it says.

Do you really think that is gonna convince someone like me? We are talking about cancer here, something that exist in the real world.

I was just correcting what you thought Genesis said or implied, if you had thought Genesis had implied that sin is God's fault.

You decide what convinces you of anything, not me.

And both God and me are in the real world even if you don't believe that. Cancer and disease entered the world when God cursed it because of sin.

Making more stuff up I see. You have no clue what I think of Genesis.

"Cancer and disease entered the world when God cursed it because of sin."

This is exactly why I have such little regard for your religion.

To each his own. So you favor atheism because it allows you to have death and cancer naturally? That's whacked. When is evolution going to get to the point of Man conquering cancer and death naturally? After "millions of years" of macroevolution we are no closer than we were "millions of years" ago. Atheism sounds like quite a downer.

What on Earth are you talking about? What the heck does atheism have to do with evolution and cancer?

Also I am not a big fan of atheism either, it is a bit better than theism because it lacks the whole "divine" knowledge aspect, but it is still often just ridiculous. -isms overall are just a joke.

No, that's because of our sin.

How come our bodies are mostly water?

I would assume that most dirt is composed of mostly water also, if dug from an area that is actively growing vegetation. Dirt is a combination of water, minerals, microorganisms, (and not so micro microorganisms) and other elements (oxygen, CO2, etc.) . Most of what we are comes from dirt as we eat plants that grow out of dirt and when we die we turn into something that sure looks like dirt.
