Thank you goat granny. I guess it’s a matter of perspective.

I have no personal qualms against you but the war is active. To know God is very powerful and guides our Nation is very powerful as well. This thread was started by JimRob solidifying the reason it is here. To attack such knowledge is at your own devices.

No, I admitted I have. You’re about to break my record.

Something lost in the translation, but the CONTEXT is that the circumcision became the covenenant by which those leaving Egypt were bound as a people. It was Zipporah who actually made the Covenant with G-d. But how to explain it? In the days when the Hebrew was translated by the Egyptians into Greek, the Greeks considered women chattel. How, then, could they accept that a WOMAN could make a Covenant with G-d, let alone a covenant that would CREATE a people from whole cloth encompassing many, many ethnicities, and which would span nearly 6,000 years?
Obviously, they did not WANT to explain it, any more than they wanted to explain that Abraham was NOT the apple of G-d’s eye, Sarah was.
The concordance in most modern NT Bibles simply states that Sarah was the mother of Isaac, not that she was the Mother of a Nation. If Abraham was the key, Hagar would have been the chosen one, and Ishmael would have been the inheritor since he was Abraham’s first born son.
Likewise, no credit is given to Rebecca to whom G-d spoke and from whom Israel was born. Rebecca is only seen in the Concordance as a deceitful woman.
You got to read the whole thing, (OT,) with your mind focused. Otherwise, you lose the truth.

And what do you consider a high level of hostility? You a psychologist?

Disobeyed what?

Apparently God was angry with Moses for having failed to keep the divine command given to Abraham in Genesis 17:10-12. Moses' life is spared when his wife circumcised their son.

C.S. Lewis as a new convert did not object to Darwinian evolution, but became less and less accepting of it as the years went on:

Free Republic is my primary news source. As it should be for all real Americans.

Arrogance, no. More along the lines of sadness.

You will be in my prayers.

Can I post here if I’m not that religious? That was my first gripe.

No. It’s not. I have read the whole thing. Several times since I first read it in college.

“I don’t see a lot of threads denigrating people who are anti-Darwinists. If there are, show me.”

I am too lazy to go back through all my posting history, but allow me to say there have been several Darwinists who have been so nasty and condescending to me when I just try to bring up what I see as reasonable arguments that I quit dialoguing with them.

Also, there are several who, although we disagree, have been perfectly civil.

Read any crevo thread and you’ll see it.

The last election proved that the impossible can happen...

The majority is dumber than average.

“So, you mean if robins and an owls get segregated on an island somewhere, they will eventually mate to become a whole new species of bird?”

Darwinian evolution would teach that the robins and owls, some of them, would eventually become a whole new species entirely. Not just a bird of a different feather.
