2)Did life begin from a pre-biotic soup? (Y/N)
3)Was Nebraska man created from one tooth?(Y/N)
4)Do you like me ?(Y/N)
You don't even get the answers right to a subject you supposedly know well. First the original Questions:
1. Is the Bible historically accurate (Y/N)?
The Bible is not entirely historically accurate. The stories of Moses, the first five books of the bible, were written well after the events they describe. No scientific evidence, no other historical documents, corroborate these books. They were not written at the time of the events. We have no pre-Babel texts in the original human language. There is a children's game called Telephone that demonstrates the way stories change, gain embellishments and lose boring bits, from telling to telling, even with carefully trained story tellers, changes creep in over time. Changes over millennia can be substantial. So the ages listed of the first humans must be considered suspect. These five books were committed to writing over a period of 200 or so years about 500 years before the Christian era - a thousand years, give or take, after the most recent events they described were supposed to happen. It also leaves out entirely the simultaneous history of Asia and the Americas.
Interestingly, even the events of the New Testament have the same issue, though not to the same degree. The earliest works in the new testament were written 30 years after the Crucifixion, most of the books even later. Also, as much as we try, we can't find references to Jesus in secular literature of the time (of course that could be for any number of reasons) and some of the events described that were documented didn't happen exactly on the dates listed in the New Testament.
2. Is the Bible God's law (Y/N)?
The Bible can not completely represent God's Law. I mean, well, which law do we mean? The coming of Jesus is supposed to have relieved mankind from following the old testament laws. Or rather, some of the old laws, but not all. Of course, few Christians can actually recite the old laws well enough to know which ones are supposed to still be followed (many can't even list from memory and in the correct order all 10 Commandments).
3. Is the Bible inerrant (Y/N)?
I think it is safe to say no, the Bible is not inerrant. Not if you try to read it literally. The entire work is literature, with literary license taken when it improved the story. What better way to impress your reader of the greatness of God's creation when the first men lived hundreds of years and you and your contemporaries are lucky to see fifty or sixty. However, it is certainly possible it is an accurate depiction of the mind of the Christian God.
Now, the questions you pose in return:
1)Are humans still evolving? (Y/N)
Yes, humans appear to still be evolving. We've already listed our evidence. Humans may also turn out to be an evolutionary dead end... like the dinosaurs. It's really the cockroach that will inherit the Earth.
2)Did life begin from a pre-biotic soup? (Y/N)
We don't know exactly how life began. After all, we don't claim we know everything. We do understand the things we do know. We understand the facts and the theories we use to explain these facts. We don't pretend to know what we don't. We adjust the theories to explain the facts as new facts arise that disagree with theory. All the facts we know indicate humans are still evolving. This is in direct contrast to fundamental teachings from the Bible - which seldom change to reflect changes to what we know.
3)Was Nebraska man created from one tooth?(Y/N)
This was also answered previously. No, that was a fake, along with Piltdown Man. Science proved it was a fake. No reputable scientists believes otherwise. This is like saying all Christians are bad people just because Kent Hovind is.
That's a silly question. From here you're just text on a screen. You could be a really nice person or a truly amoral troll. You're challenging me to think about what I know, what I think, and what I believe. By putting these into words I either solidify or discard these ideas. I don't, however, have a personal like or dislike of the person behind the posts under the pseudonym jesus_freak. That'd just be freaky!
Of course, many of us wish your posts were better researched.
is evaluated. Therefore, if x is 2, the generations that are alive are generations n and n-1. This means that only a generation and its parents are alive. It seems reasonable to choose x = 3 most of the time. Taking x = 3 means that when P
