I write, yes. I consider myself a very serious writer but I have not attempted publication. I'd like to write a grand narrative some day and also maybe something of a loosely interconnected collection of short stories--but introspection is probably my strength. My writing style is pretty lofty...
I knew the BRANCH is the Messiah but the reason I was astonished is because I read the whole thing wrong.
The Scripture is not saying OF Joshua, son of Josedech "Behold the BRANCH"--it's saying say unto HIM (Joshua) Behold the BRANCH.
That was the only thing I was confused about. Otherwise, it...
Concerning the two witnesses.
It is exceedingly popular to believe these refer to Moses and Elijah or some other notable Old Testament prophet; they certainly are not.
A close reading of God's Word reveals exactly who they are:
Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and Joshua...
Pretty much in the same boat as you. Not enough "experience" to do anything and yet no one wants to give me "experience" in the first place. Pretty neat considering I am more trainable than most people.
I wouldn't put much stock in college saving you. It is not about what you know. It is...
The difference is those who sacrificed to baal were killing their children to honor their disgusting idol. Those who have abortion today do so to honor their disgusting selves in vainglorious magnification of the ego in place of God in the name of wanton hedonism.
I am pro-choice. A women has...
Another good example is Ernst Haeckel's forgeries he used to "prove" his embryonic recapitulation theory. These forgeries were discovered only what? 140 years ago? And they still are being taught at major universities to defend evolution. I remember being taught myself that embryo's have "gill...
Once again you show your haste to easy conclusions built on inaccurate presumptions: Just because the moon is not a primary light source does not mean that it does not "give light" as I know you know. This is semantics. The Bible says the moon is a "lesser light" to govern the night. The purpose...
Manipulate the laws of physics? Hardly. First, I never said that the laws of physics were ignored. I never said that light's speed was magnified in the beginning so that it would reach us. What I was saying was when God said very plainly "Let there be light," that light came into being...
So what? You don't think Machiavellian tactics are ever permissible even when the ones using them are in the right?
18Again he said, Therefore hear the word of the LORD; I saw the LORD sitting upon his throne, and all the host of heaven standing on his right hand and on his left.
19And the...
If this is some kind of snare to do with the distance of light in relation to 6,000 years, you should probably realize that God could just have easily set light in motion from the instant of the stars being rather than having the light travel naturally without an initial jump start. Actually, it...
Given that it is a quantitative support for the argument suggested in the op, I don't think I need to waste time explaining to you the purpose of living fossils in this thread. If evolution were a "fact" you would expect to see it across the board, hence uniformitarianism.
The beauty of this argument is that it is far from unique to bats. There are actually scores upon scores of species that seem to have little to no "evidence" for evolutionary descendent. Here are some more examples of "living fossils." (From Wikipedia)

"Rest" for God does not mean to sleep or to revive his stamina. It means to rest from his work. In court when the prosecution rests, it is only saying that they are finished making their case. So God rests when he finishes "making" his creation. God never actually rests:
16And therefore did...
As much as judgment is just I think I'll just stop short of actually praying for justice. I'd hate to think what would happen if both sides of the equation were kept proportional. Mercy rejoices against judgment and God knows I need the former but I deserve much more of the later than I want...
I guess that means I could decide to be temperamentally inclined to acknowledge my "feminine side" and enter a restroom "without urinals" seeing as how there is no real prohibition placarded to the contrary. Prove my intentions are disingenuous. In fact, female and male restrooms are segregation...
