Japheth's family went north. They would have been his descendants.

You quoted verses and then interpreted them based on your beliefs. I quoted verses that EXPLAINED the verses you quoted, showing how they don't support your beliefs (because scripture does not contradict scripture). Appeal to tradition is a logical fallacy, and won't fly here on TOL. He's...

Get your head out of the sand. How about this stuff? Never happened? https://therightscoop.com/watch-colorado-parent-silenced-by-school-board-after-reading-graphic-book-available-to-school-kids/...

Too many to count. No, it would not. Far better if the law said that if a man and a woman are caught having sex outside of marriage, they would be fore Only teaches rewards and consequences. It does not teach pain. AKA reinforcement. AKA reinforcement. We have time out already. It's...

It may have been at one point. But currently, it is not.

It does say. And I told you this already. Maybe you didn't catch it. Here it is again: "It does say stone, like a mason would use." That's referring to the hebrew word used, and the Strong's concordance entry for that word, which is this: Strong's h68 - Lexical: אֶבֶן - Transliteration...

Honoring your parents is ALWAYS a good thing to do. If they tell you to do evil, obviously, disobeying them is required, but you still honor them because they are your parents. Most parents these days are the result of the public education system. Because it was expected that the parents...

If your reasoning can lead to something horrible, simply by posing a question based on it, then maybe your reasoning isn't very good to begin with. It's called moving the goalpost, but I'll allow it, because doing so allows me to further my position. I'll show you why in a moment. Which...

I clearly took this for granted! Good point! Exactly!

No, it's not obvious, and introducing children to sexual behavior before they are even halfway to puberty is child abuse. The only discussion of sex that a parents should teach their children, when they reach the age of puberty, is that they should be abstinent from it until they marry. That...

Because He is worthy of it. This is question begging, and He has shown otherwise. He has proven that He is good. Such a thing isn't possible, but to answer the question for the sake of the argument, yes, we would, because we would be superior to it, just as God is superior to us. If the...

Why do you think that contradicts what I just quoted Jesus as having said? Forgive, as many times as your brother comes to you and repents!

A Christian cannot be salt and light in the world if he keeps his beliefs to himself.

That's not what Jesus said: Do you know what He said? He said this: Take heed to yourselves. If your brother sins against you, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him.And if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times in a day returns to you, saying, ‘I repent,’ you shall...

Should people be forgiven if they have not repented? No, it's not. Requiring that people obey the law ends in death and disaster? What planet do you live on, again?

On which point? Of course He does. But that doesn't change the fact that He does not currently speak to people directly. How about what the Bible says? Is that contrary to God? You shall not lie with a male as with a woman. It is an abomination.Nor shall you mate with any animal, to defile...

Idolatry is not a crime. Homosexual behavior is. Christians are not told to kill anyone, except as under the authority of their government (eg: during wartime). The government, however, is held responsible by God for executing homosexuals and other capital criminals.

Those living self-aware beings fully capable of self-determination were not made by "mechanics." They were made by a Being who is living, personal, relational, good, and loving, Who imparted some of His qualities into them when He created them. Our brain is not simply a network of neurons. It...

Who is "they"? Because it's not Christians. I asked about Christians. Because God says to put them to death if they commit homosexual acts. That is the just punishment for their actions. Women who intentionally kill, or have someone kill their child in their womb, are guilty of murder. That...

When was the last time Christians did those things? No one has dismissed anything. Christians != Zealot "X" The Bible != Tea leaves God does not speak to people directly currently. The last time it happened was with the Apostle John, around AD 90, to give him the Revelation of the end...
