Adam & Eve Theory Debunked. Twist to Genesis. Eve got created first.

@Slade No beauty without strangeness...

@helenS Lilith was given a raw deal based on the mythology I know. I would take her side.

@helenS I think............you would put her to shame. ;-)

@in10RjFox You can't [b]choose[/b] to ignore a perfectly logical idea in favour of a leap of faith.
Or worse. Discriminate against one piece of accepted doctrine just because [i]suddenly[/i] a [i]new[/i] piece of [i]potential[/i] doctrine appeals to you.

Or maybe you can....see you've got [i]me[/i] arguing [i]your[/i] position !

With science you can always re-asses and amend your understanding as you get more information.
Are you now suggesting the same is true with religious doctrine ??

@in10RjFox did I offer a scientific fact ?

No, I get cheesed when someone is rude.

I have no trouble with conflicting ideas or challenges - but I am making a point of learning to be a better person and respectful .

So when someone isn't - for no reason at all - yes...I find that offensive .

You seem to think that just because this is all online that all social convention can be thrown aside and it's fine to be rude.

And it may be all fiction - so ?
Are you any better - offering an alternate fiction based on nothing ?

You are basically complaining about the very thing you are doing yourself - which makes no logical sense .

And if you want the sensitive button off - you got it .

And as a matter of FACT - telling someone they shouldn't be so sensitive is a text book comment of a narcissist.

Look it up .

And I remember you exhibiting other indicitive traits other times we have spoken .

We were speaking fine and now you've seen someone attacking me - here you are ganging up like a damn coward to attack me too .

I didn't say anything awful to you , or criticise you - yet you jump in on someone's hand wagon and be mean .

You're a fucking coward you are ...ganging up.
You prefer to be mean than be decent .you had no reason to attack me .

- we are also done .

I've tolerated your self absorbed nature for too long . Forgiven you your selfishness and egotism and arrogance .

Go hang out with your groupie and apese your egos flattering each other and making yourselves feel good and justified .

When both of you are so hollow - neither of you know how to be kind ...or friendly .

You know what ?
You deserve each other's company .

Good luck with that .

Again you are making open ended statements without context. In an online forum, learn to be specific and quote / requote where necessary. Which is the perfectly logical idea that I am ignoring ? and what is my leap of faith ?

Which one piece of accepted doctrine which is being discriminated? if a new piece of potential doctrine has no place in the world, then why are we all living? why are we going to school and learning what? Hope you know that it was once thought that Sun and other planets were revolving around the earth and only later a new piece of doctrine arrived that it is earth going around the sun . So was it a perfectly logical idea that sun goes around earth ? Even now to the eye it looks so, because they say the sun rises in the east and sets in the west ..

Anything is science including logical reasoning. For instance a science is developed to asses the age of a tree based on the rings and layers .. similarly the age of rock or stone based on its radioactive decay. But even the scientists know that it's just an estimate. Nobody will vouch for its accuracy.

@FreakLikeMe[quote] I think it’s important to not just rethink the creation story, but to abandon it outright. There’s no scientific evidence of spontaneous creation in the natural world, which takes us back to evolutionary theory once again. All living things evolved in a natural environment, which is governed by natural laws.[/quote]

There are trillions of planets in the universe so, if life exists on some of them, wouldn't that mean that the evolution process is standard and universal?

@Diotrephes I know that evolution is the standard on this planet. I wouldn’t dare try to speak about the possibility of life on other planets. You’ve raised a good question though.

@FreakLikeMe Even Universe has an origin and evolution, and only that is universal, which for us is impossible to know and ascertain. And yes everything in this world is a replication and there is no one instance of anything. So there would be numerous solar systems having its own set of planets and an earth with life and their space program is what we know as aliens.

@in10RjFox God knows better! Water was created like that you describe, each individual drop falling from the sky...

@elafina that's not the argument here.. the problem is what god has not written what he knows and he never comes down to write afresh .. 😀

@in10RjFox no need, speaking through the creation!
