[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by n2mopac Second, I'm not Catholic, but I don't think that bit of "humor" would be appreciated by most, Catholic or otherwise. Ron [/quote] Well, before you try to "guilt peddel" me any further, ...I was born a catholic, so I'll speak of them as I derned well please, remember..."freedom to express ones opinion" swings both ways. Fact of the matter is, there is contextual application there....As you say, the bible makes no mention of the subject, therefore gods opinion on that subject must be null. Where in the bible does it say priests may not covet their choirboys? I've never seen a specific mention, therefore god must not care one way or the other? Back to the original topic, the teachings of the bible are invariably passed off as the "ultimate word" of the omnipotent creator... Since he was telling us of his creative process, why would he selectively leave out such significant "chunks" of his handiwork? (the great reptiles and CORRECT planetary mechanics?) The reason why is because the bible is not the word of god at all, rather it is the best guess of primitive minds as to what creation MIGHT have been like, limited by their terresterial bounds. You can see the earthbound limitation of the perspective of "god" because the vagueness comes in right as the story delves off the face of the planet. If God was telling the story, why is it dependant upon an earthbound perspective? Since the officially recorded version bothers to mention the stars as part of the heavens, but makes no mention of the other planets we share our own solar system,.. what you actually have is an OMISSION! Any omnipotent who had actually created it all, would have not had to do so much guess work... wrong to boot. Why should it even matter to me? Well, all the others seem to be enjoying the spamfest, it would be a shame to give them closure.
