Q. What do Christians and Darwinists have in common with one another?

[Arthur Brain]

Nice attempted diversion of the subject.... your favorite tactic.

Hardly. I answered you on your supposed "point". You like to declare that people reject God when what they're actually doing is being at odds with your fundamentalism. There's no problem with evolution for many a believer and no moral relativism where it comes to incest either...

God explained how humanity began. You reject it. Your loss.

Why don't you like fundamentals?

What is "fundamentalism"?

Not my loss at all. Fundamentalism can be dismissed for what it is, a rigid and literal belief system that denies anything that counters it, like evolution etc.

With a magic waving of your wand.... :rotfl:

God said... you don't believe Him.

 

[annabenedetti]

Again... I believe God and you reject His Word...

It's pretty simple. You guys think that you're better than God.

So I did a little looking around and found this:

This discussion involves two assumptions which you should be aware of:

1. The prohibition in the Law of Moses against incest was enacted by God
to protect his people, not because incest is inherently sinful. This is a
likely conclusion, but it is impossible to prove.

I sure didn't have 'incest isn't inherently sinful' on my 2020 bingo card.

Forget that...

No, I dismiss fundamentalism for what it is, a rigid, literal belief system. Not the same thing at all.

What is "fundamentalism"?

I've found that people who rail again "fundamentalism" usually have an odd definition of "fundamentalism".

It's right to believe the fundamentals... like God created one man and one woman.... that is crystal clear and unambiguous.

Why was incest wrong when the only people on earth were Adam and Eve and their children?

Your issue is that you don't believe what God says.

 

[annabenedetti]

Why was incest wrong when the only people on earth were Adam and Eve and their children?

Why is it wrong now?

Your issue is that you don't believe what God says.

That's your stock answer for everything, it appears. It allows you to avoid the ramifications of what you're allowing for.

 

[Right Divider]

Why is it wrong now?

Because God made a new rule.

Just like when God began allowing animals as food after the flood. Gen 9

That's your stock answer for everything, it appears. It allows you to avoid the ramifications of what you're allowing for.

It simply appears to be the truth.

Do you believe God when He said that He created one man and one woman in the beginning?

 

[annabenedetti]

Because God made a new rule.

And what if he changes the rule back again?

Do you believe God when He said that He created one man and one woman in the beginning?

I believe that fundamental Christianity depends on a literal Adam and Eve or the whole belief system falls apart. Without a literal Adam and Eve there is no original sin, no fall, and no need of a savior.

 

[Right Divider]

And what if he changes the rule back again?

Is there a point? What if He does?

I believe that fundamental Christianity depends on a literal Adam and Eve or the whole belief system falls apart. Without a literal Adam and Eve there is no original sin, no fall, and no need of a savior.

Exactly.... so you DO believe that God created one man and one woman?

 

[annabenedetti]

Is there a point? What if He does?

If he did... would you then go along with the new rule change that incest isn't wrong any more?

Exactly.... so you DO believe that God created one man and one woman?

No.

 

[Right Divider]

If he did... would you then go along with the new rule change that incest isn't wrong any more?

I take God at His Word. God makes the rules.

No.

And therein lies your problem. You reject God's Word.

Do you consider yourself to be a Christian?

 

[annabenedetti]

I take God at His Word. God makes the rules.

Even if it includes making incest not always wrong.

No thanks.

And therein lies your problem. You reject God's Word.

^ Stock answer.

Do you consider yourself to be a Christian?

Catholic, albeit not a very good one.

 

[Right Divider]

Even if it includes making incest not always wrong.

No thanks.

Once again... you think that you're better than God.

^ Stock answer.

Just the truth.

Catholic, albeit not a very good one.

That makes a LOT of sense. Catholics (I assume you mean Roman Catholic) don't take the Bible seriously either.

 

[annabenedetti]

Once again... you think that you're better than God.

No, you just have to twist yourself into pretzel justifying incest and this is how you choose to do it.

 

[ok doser]

Exactly.... so you DO believe that God created one man and one woman?

No.

Do you believe that there existed, at a point in the past, one man and one woman, from whom descended all of humanity?

 

[ok doser]

... justifying incest ...

what is inherently wrong with incest?

 

[Right Divider]

No, you just have to twist yourself into pretzel justifying incest and this is how you choose to do it.

Again you are wrong.... you've decided what you want to believe regardless of what the Bible says.

Why do you have such a low view of God's Word?

As you stated earlier... without a literal Adam and Eve you can just throw the Bible out. Which, apparently, you've done.
