Right they would....but Eve was a play on words from the dieties that Nin.mah had created to heal the 7 wounds she inflicted on EN.Ki for playing around with man's creation and creating monster like beings, so she made illness befall him nad then was pleaded by another god to heal the dying...
LOL,,no. Its not better. Change your name to Atheistscout and Ill be satisfied. :)
No, you are right, you had said that "Youve heard tradition stating..."
so i retract that sentence "do you really beleive that"
Sorry brother

The Calendar? 3760 bce is adams birthday? Thats not true man. Do you really believe that? I cant fathom this. There are pottery shards older than that, and I have a beaded bracelet on my wrist right now thats older than that.
beside the adam story is a myth from a few thousand years or so...
Why enrich your lives or worse yet, your kids lives on the premise of lies and plagiarism. This isnt the dark ages, science has brought alot to light about religion and its origins. I was a christian until age 15, I believed, until I really lookked into the origin of faiths. I understand that...
Do you mean the Calendar of Nippur? Thats at 5762, according to Judaism, its the beginning of the world. (Craziness) That too, along with the myths that make up the Torah, were stolen from Babylonians/Assyrians and Ultimatly the Sumerians. I never heard of the Nimrod Calendar. The only...
You are right, there did have to be a beginning, or the first human, and of course they had belly buttons. Just trying to understand how theists think, even when simple questions are put before them. Thats all.
There are a few (Million) in every bunch. I have no problem with "Invisible man worshippers" wanting to teach ID in schools, as long as its not in SCIENCE class. As its PHilosophy NOT Science. I do think its funny that you call the Theory of Evolution (Satan) You made my day, I needed a...
:eek: First I wanted to say, Damn you Roli, you tookk my idea, unintentionally of course, thats exactly where I was heading, but since you touched on that, ELOHIM, being Plural. Lets move onto the other part. No, I dont think you people are stupid, but maybe uneducated in your religion...
For those of you who beleive that Adam and Eve were indeed the first humans, I am just curious if you also believe that they had belly buttons? If you can explain too, that would be great.
If you think you can answer that, I should further question the origin of the people of Nod?

Wow, thats a harder question than, "Is there a god?" Since I indulge in all of nature, my recreational 20 years habit of smoking Marijuana at night, keeps me from remembering anything, that day, let aloone a week agao :)~~
Kudos to those of you who can recollect that day, so long long...
Wow, alot of great info here. Yes, Sumerian is the first we know of.....which still doesnt make sense to me, only being like 5000 years old or so. SOmeone mentioned the language of Sumer being nonexistatn, or that its only a theory. Ibve heard the same thing, though it was written on...
That right there is an excellent point!! well put. I'd have to agree. Religion was created, I beleive to control and unruly people, so as to give hope and some ind of consequence to their actions....I do think we are civilized enough to do without it now.
We all know how important language is to us. I started talking about this in another thread and took a suggestion to start a new thread about it. Im curious as to find out from some "language" scholars or autodidacts if you have anything to say about the lineage of language, and how we can...
LOL, "No" hehe. I listen to Liturgical Hymns too bro, as they are acoustically emblasened in my cerebral cortex from years of repeating. "and the father will dance, as on the day of joy...."
"though the mountains may fall and the hills turn to dust, yet the love of the lord, will stand..."...
