Yes God's creation is awesome, and whats even more amazing is that we can know God personallh and experience the love, joy and peace He offers to anyone who will accept Him as their Lord and Saviour
@LadyGrace @GodSpeed63 yes thats true, i put up a pic of a solar eclipse in a reply a few weeks ago, the size and distance from the sun making them appear the same size from earth. One of the scoffers said it was a bad design so i challenged her to design something better, something that millions of people would stand in awe of.
@TheWildEcho oh you out did yourself with that solar eclipse. Wow! That could not be any better I tell you. It's so clear and gorgeous. Thank you for that.
I would never refer to it as a 'bad design'...because it wasn't designed.
What we currently see is merely how it is now. Earlier the Moon appeared much bigger, and far into the future it will appear much smaller.
So what?
If things were not the way they are now, then they would be different.
Wow! Hardly a profound thought, is it!
You say that you asked me to design something better. Better than what... how it was, or how it eventually will be?
Here are some other things that 'millions of people' should stand in awe of: there are around 200 billion stars in our Milky Way galaxy, and around 200 billion galaxies in the observable universe.
I live in the southern hemisphere, so on a clear night I can easily see the Alpha Centauri star system... the nearest to our own star. It takes light 4.25 years to travel from there to here. The light I looked at a few nights ago began its journey in March 2020, travelling at 300,000 kilometres per second... and that's the nearest.
Against this you feel that a rock crossing the face of the Sun for a few minutes, and casting a shadow on only a tiny fraction of our planet, is some sort of design (for what purpose?). Of course, you might think that if you were a Bronze Age Middle-Eastern goat herder who didn't know where the Sun went at night.
@newjaninev2 so why do you get so wound up and start scoffing at people who see things differently? Millions of people today believe in a creator God all over the world , and always will. Many of them scientists including several who went to the moon in the 70s
lol! Perhaps you could offer some examples of that? Do you realise that how you wish things were are sometimes at odds with reality? So, some examples would be helpful, yes?
Millions of people all over the world share a myriad of delusions about all sorts of things, so I fail to see what point you're trying to make.
Incidentally, , I'm still calmly waiting for you to offer a germane and reasoned response to my recent comment, so, any time you're ready...
] you claim that people who believe in a creator God are as ignorant as bronze age people wondering where the sun went at night??
Really?? Including astronauts who walked on the moon? Such claims are so insulting, ridiculous and preposterous that there's no poin in taking this conversion any further @newjaninev2
At what point did I equate people who believe in a creator God with Bronze Age Middle-Eastern goat herders who didn't know where the Sun went at night?
You really should start reading what people write and not what you would have liked them to write.
Maybe then you wouldn't get so bent out of shape by your own assumptions.
@TheWildEcho Nothing I posted there equates people who believe in a creator God with Bronze Age Middle-Eastern goat herders who didn't know where the Sun went at night.
You really should start reading what people write and not what you would have liked them to write.
