    Under the Word of God

    I have a hard time seeing how athiests, agnostics, hindus, other non-Christians are forced to read and respond to threads about religion. Some things here on AD offend me, of do not interest me, I just ignore the thread. No one forces me to go there and give my opinion. And if I do go to a...

    Whipping Us into a War Frenzy, Uh Oh

    The history of U.S. involvement in Persia is quite lengthy and convoluted. You really should take the time to look at it from an unbiased historical perspective (if such a critter exists). I knew some Iranian students in college back in the seventies. When the Shah was still in power there. Ray...

    How Old is the Earth?

    Ahhh. I see. That automatically disqualifies anything from review and consideration? I have found quite a few "truth" ages of the earth. Even the scientists don't agree. they vary by several billion years. What's a few billion years anyway. As long as it is "truth".

    The Gospels are not Historical

    Prior to its collapse in late 1991, official figures on the number of religious believers in the Soviet Union were not available. But according to various Soviet and Western sources, over one-third of the people in the Soviet Union, an officially atheistic state, professed religious belief...

    The Gospels are not Historical

    I'm sorry, but the French are such easy targets! American police doing it on an almost daily basis? Ouch! Then it should be no trouble to show me ten seperate instances of each! Or five? How would the world look today if America had kept it's morals, money, and military at home for the...

    How Old is the Earth?

    You need a refresher course. You cannot carbon date a rock. Do you have a source I can look at on this rock? Carbon dating is a variety of radioactive dating which is applicable only to matter which was once living and presumed to be in equilibrium with the atmosphere, taking in carbon...

    The Gospels are not Historical

    Yeah, I am not too sure I would trust the UN stats. They were so nice to us in S.E. Asia, they told our enemy all of our secret mission plans. How convenient. Got oil? Want food? Here is the breakdown of their seventh report on France. Europe: France: Crime Acquitted: 39,875...

    The Gospels are not Historical

    Obviously people who commit crimes are not practicing the Christian religion, now are they? Look at the composition of the criminals that make up these statistics. Not exactly Fellowship of Christian Athelete candidates, now are they?

    How Old is the Earth?

    Many cultures have flood stories, including Chinese and Native American. None of these disprove the Biblical account. I realize that many people do not believe the words of the Bible, and others also do not believe in God. I cannot prove to you the veracity of the Bible or the existance of...

    Point taken. Patents in this case refers to what is now known as "Intellectual Property Law" (inclusive of copyright, trademark, design and utility patents). Originally it was a King's Patent or recognition of exclusive rights by the crown. It included land patents, copyrights, trademarks...

    How Old is the Earth?

    Yes, like Cheri pointed out, we all make mistakes and misread. In post 27 you showed us, you said that patents didn't start until the 1800's. You did not check the facts either. "The history of American copyright law originated with the introduction of the printing press to England in the late...

    How Old is the Earth?

    continued Archaeologists, linguists, paleontologists, and practically every other form of science associated with antiquarian research has been affected by this corruption of our historical perceptions. The problem is simple: in one era of the Egyptian account, the history would describe a...
