Let me take this layup about the Penn and Teller thing. For those of you who don't know I am a Christian.
The fist thing I want to point out is that the Bible is not in chronological order. I have a chronologically ordered Bible as well as 2 or 3 regular Bibles.
Penn and Teller are very misinformed and neither is very smart. I quit listening after the second part where the "expert" they bring in talks about Genesis and then Noah's ark. He says that in the first chapter God creates both man and woman at the same. Well, no it doesnt.
I have the Bible in my lap, it doesn't say any such thing. It says in Genesis 1 verse 27: "And God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them."
Where in does it say he created them at the same time? It doesn't. It only says that God created man and woman in his image. Penn and Teller's expert claims it does. Strike 1.
In Chapter 2 it simply goes into detail of how man and woman were created. They were not created at the same time. Chapter 2 explains it in verse 22.
So now that Penn and Teller have been humiliated after the first point they made, let me talk about the 2nd point, Noah's ark. This is the last totally invalid point I will debunk using another website or 2.
Noah's ark
Noah's ark 2
There are also literally tens of thousands of other sources out there giving you a clear picture of how it happened.
So the first 2 points they make with their expert are totally invalid.
I'm not going further with those clowns.
This thread was not made to be a religious thread, there are other threads about religion I have posted in. I will not respond to any more posts about religion in this thread. I will tell you this.
There is not 1 thing in the Bible that has been dis-proven by science.
For those of you who know anything about science and don't believe in God then explain these questions. Where did the first atom come from? How did the electron get its negative charge and the proton its positive charge? How did all the forces in the universe like gravity get set into motion? The big bang had to be caused by something. Steven Hawkins tried to give a possible explanation recently for these questions but his answer included the force of gravity as something that has always been there! No Steven, forces do not appear out of thin air unless you have a God present.
There has to be an original creator, a God. There is on other possible explanation for where the first "things" came from.
Science backs up what is said in the Bible.
Hey Prote-dawg, that type of logic does not apply for obvious reasons. e.g.
Who created god? Who created the universe god controls? Is that a universe among universes.
Prote-dawg forget the scriptures, we all know nothing is as good for the soul like some good ole shooting the dirt. Seems like you aren't doing enough for not doing too much. You need to up your dirt shooting percentages.
