Mm. Well, anywho, I interpret 21 as a 2 millennia-old mind-set of speaking in code about the Spirit's growth into enlightenment, but, of course, that's just how I interpret it.

I don't suppose there's much point asking if you've seen any empty tombs about the place then?

You're right, no point. He'll obviously say yes, because he was there to witness all that other stuff never having taken place.

Here's your answer, DOC! PM Mojo and ask him to show you the tomb. :crowded:

Here are a few scientific examples that show that the bible can't be trusted:

God's law for lepers: Get two birds. Kill one. Dip the live bird in the blood of the dead one. Sprinkle the blood on the leper seven times, and then let the blood-soaked bird fly off. Next find a lamb and kill it. Wipe some of its blood on the patient's right ear, thumb, and big toe. Sprinkle seven times with oil and wipe some of the oil on his right ear, thumb and big toe. Repeat. Finally kill a couple doves and offer one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. Lev 14:2-52

[SIZE=-1][SIZE=-1]God's cure for snakebite: a brass serpent on a pole.
To save the people from God's snakes, Moses makes a graven image in the form of a snake (breaking the second commandment) and puts it on a pole. Those who look at Moses' magic snake to not die -- even if they were previously bit by God's snakes.[/SIZE][/SIZE] [SIZE=-1][SIZE=-1]Num 21:8-9

The 'hardness' of air: [/SIZE][/SIZE][SIZE=-1]God spread out the sky, which is a solid structure, hard and strong like a mirror. Job 37:18

(thanks to The S.A.B. for the above)


For the record, bunnies aren't ruminants!

So go and ask your mum about these biblical science examples and the 1000's more listed at SAB (link above) and other sites.

I'd rather not, but, if that can of worms is ever opened again, then I definitely will.

It came up in the first place because I was dogging the Rapture occurring on May 21st, so she came at me.

Why was you 'dogging' the rapture? I've lost 5 friends that were raptured on the 21st. Our friend here, Akenhaten (Aberhaten, if you know him reeeally well) was raptured too. Actually there were lots of contributors to this thread that were raptured. IIRC there's only DOC, you (and your mum), Kmortis (he had to stay, he's the Mod) left.




BTW 'Dogging' doesn't mean what you think it means here in the UK. See here.

I lost some good friends in the Zombie Apocalypse on the 21st before the CDC managed to quarantine the Zombies.

*Nice try Zombie Jesus. But we stopped your Demonic Hordes this time. Science won the day.*

Because I thought the Rapture was very interesting and it made me amorous.:p
Ahhh... I never would have associated 'dogging' to that. I love cultural differences :]

I knew I got gypped. Why couldn't my mom have gone.

I'm pretty sure all the evidence for the NT has been raptured too.

I'm afraid the 'evidence' was raptured on 23rd September 2008, 09:34:59am and has never been seen since, despite all the wriggling in this thread.
 
Sir Ramsay was raptured long ago and is now in the company of the greatest historian ever, Luke! :D
 
I'm a page behind, ignore me.

And did those feet in ancient time
Walk upon England's mountains green
And was the holy lamb of God
On England's pleasant pastures seen

And did the countenance divine
Shine forth upon our clouded hills
And was Jerusalem builded here
Among those dark Satanic mills

Bring me my bow of burning gold
Bring me my arrows of desire
Bring me my spears o'clouds unfold
Bring me my chariot of fire

I will not cease from mental fight
Nor shall my sword sleep in my hand
'Til we have built Jerusalem
In England's green and pleasant land.

- William Blake​

I expect a lot of Americans are familiar with it because of Monty Python. I always keep a box handy in case someone says "mattress" to Mr. Lambert.
