Ok, sorry. Never use that "when you've been around longer..." argument, because age has nothing to do with it. (unless you are talking about my being around PWeb longer?), in which case I don't really mind.

Anyway, Jews, Muslims, or other, please show yourselves and talk to us!

That's the point. It COULDNT be igneous. Thereofore, it is not. It is sedimentary. Also, upthrust includes only a very small layer of sediment on top.

Seriously. You have GOT to be trolling. Do you think scientists just make this stuff up?

Never mind. as you said: not the right thread.

We have talked a lot about Christian/Catholic sacraments/ordinances. Are there any Muslims or Jews who have similar rites and sacraments?

I don't understand how John 20:23 says ANYTHING about infants receiving the grace of God. all that happens here is Jesus blesses his apostles. If by "apostolic succession" you mean that people can become apostles today, that is COMPLETELY bogus. Jesus never personally blessed any of THEM! ...

Infant baptism is efficacious for salvation. It removes the stain of original sin and plants the seed of the grace of God. There is more to it, of course, but what you need to know about Baptism is that it is not a symbol. The actor in the sacrament is not the child - how could an infant possibly m...

Luther brings up a great point: the second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of a system can never decrease. Because entropy is the measure of the disorder of a system, it follows that NOTHING can go from disorder to order in a natural system; hence, evolution is impossible. As to those ...

I wasn't disagreeing with you. Remember when I said this?

The reason I use the Bible is because it is, to me, the highest authority in existence; therefore, any support found for any argument found in the Bible carries much more weight to me and others who trust the Word of God. Solipsism is rather strange. In the famous words of Descartes, "I think, ...

To continue EL's summary, Catholics, as he said, have Seven sacraments. Protestants either have two sacraments (baptism and communion), or none (baptism and communion become purely symbolic).

Thing about Pi is that the Bible equates pi to 3. That's why it's unreliable when it comes to scientific matters, due to the ignorance on such matters of the writers. Where does it do that?

Ah, so your moral system doesn't come from God, after all. It comes from the Bible. You believe in the Bible, not in God.
How utterly ignorant and insulting. I DO believe in God. the Bible is simply the word of God. Simple as that.
