Origins of the Universe. (Creation versus science. Do they contradict?)

Naa, I should not be so sarcastic anyhow.
Sorry pal

Type "atheist" to make up for it...

Guess what?
I am not a theologian at all.
I never studied theology, I do not preach in any Church.
I dont even go to Church.

SFW?

Now why would you make such a remark?

Because you condescending attitude is  quite tiresome.  I am not in the 3rd grade and you are not my teacher.  So, make your point?  I am beginning to think you don't have one.

Theist visitors to our site often do not have any point other than to say they love a deity they can't demonstrate.  Can't stop THAT.

So what do you say, If these ancient sheepherders in the desert wrote that on the 3rd day the Land separated from Sea, how did the earth look before this happened.
It is a simple question and claimed by simple people, can you answer?

You might as well ask me to write out the colophon in one of Harry Potter's textbooks at Hogwarts; it's fiction, not history or science.  Or do you also take the Iliad as documentary evidence for the classical Greek gods?

Why don't you tell me what the Earth looked like before the clear blue drop of dew falling from the sky mingled with the black drop of dew rising from the Earth, in the Korean Chronicles of Cheonjiwang?  What did it look like when Gaia gave birth to Ouranos in Hellenistic cosmology?  Describe the second, third and fourth worlds of Zuni creation.  Tell me what it looked like when the fireball dried the mud figures in Yoruba creation.  How were the cords connecting the floating island to the cardinal points attached in Cherokee creation?

Judea-Christo-Islamic myth is no more worth taking seriously than any of those.  Its place is in world literature, not laboratories.

That is true.  But this guy keeps hinting (or hinting at hinting) that he has some life-changing message to impart.  He seems to think he is mounting the suspense since he just knows all of us are at the edge of our seats for him to reveal his nuggets of pure wisdom to us lowly 'Atheists' (that capital letter lets us know he has not much of a clue as to what an atheist is).  Tiresome.

I see that too.  Why they would come here, I don't understand.  I sometimes wonder if it's to demonstrate their faith knowing they are going to get hammered.  That might explain why they are so locked into fallacies, just to have some response:  "See me talking?  My faith cannot be shaken.  I stand by the contradictions in the Bible, which are not contradictions at all when one opens his heart.  See me talking, Jesus.  I will always be by your side.

He differs from other theists slightly because he doesn't pose arguments.  Instead he hangs around doing a 'Wolf Blitzer':  "Don't touch that dial. There will be more coverage of this important event when we come back." 

And there is, but it only shows up after 3 more commercial breaks, if it shows up at all.  Although it's been years since I've watched Wolf.  I don't know if he still does that.

Outstanding!  Could not have expressed it better myself

He is really into stage-setting.  He has set his stage over and over again.  When I run across this type of setting things up, I am always disappointed in what is finally 'revealed' as the next 'big' thing.

Like hype for a blockbuster movie that turns out to be derivative, trite and tawdry.

Well at least Mousetrap (and recognizing the intent of the handle is rather psychologically transparent, he/she isn't TOO annoying YET!  I mean, after all, there seem to be full sentences and all...  We've seen dumber...

Well, maybe.  But think of his name--mousetrap.  I think he regards you (and the rest of us) as the mouse.

But he's keeping the cheese away from us, thinking he's got us already trapped. LOL
