Exactly! Indeed, he can do it without a book!
then what makes the bible different from any other relegious book. also, why is it then that different people who have FELT that sumthing divine has revealed the truth to them usually tend to disagree on what the truth is? after all, who can say that the revelation i have is better than the revelation you had? there is no criteria to judge such things which puts into dispute, claims of the truth being REVEALED to people. also, christianity has no real merits above other mainstream theistic relegions.

😆 😆Me making it personal? You started that long before I did but hey who cares. I love you jumps in logic but that is you and I don't agree with your view and you have a right to them but when you tell someone that theirs are wrong you best believe that someone is going to pipe up.
* as far as i remember, when i say someone is wrong, i always provide the reason and what is my basis... for example, when someone a person said that Jesus is a mere mortal, i will tell him that if it's according to the Bible, he/she is wrong... if it's not according to the Bible, i prefer to shut up, for there is no point of discussion...

Evading issues? When have I ever evaded an issue? You have done that more times than not but I do have to say that you do answer many of my questions and I will give you credit for that compared to some others on this forum.
* i will consider that as a compliment, thank you...

Maybe there is just a communication problem between you and I, it would be the first time that this has happened. Maybe I just don't see your type of humor in your posts, not everyone has the same kind of humor or witting style. They way I read yours comes across as sarcastic and trying to belittle people. If that is not truly your intent then I do apologize but being on this forum dealing with troll and flamers you become a bit jaded.
* okay, i apologize too if my posts were delivered in different way... but i am not really trying to belittle people, i might be sarcastic but not to belittle people esp. here in this forum... this might be redundant, but if you can see my previous posts, i always include "according to the Bible" because if it's not, i'll shut myself up... let's take a pass on this subject, shall we? 🙂

Why does he believe night was created on the fourth day and why is that in any way significant?
* i believe we have just ended our discussion about that... we both have our points and views, and i already emphasized mine on the underlined phrases on the verses...

Indeed, thats why we have, a living breathing successor group to the Apostles.
^WHAT are you talking about???? the catholic church?{hope not cause they have more than enough crap on their hands past and present} os sumthing else? jesus never created the church, paul did, who had teachings different from jesus. furthermore, your basing your assumption on the fact that the revaltions of the apostles were superior to the revelations of others before them and after them. there is no way to know this, not to mention there are contradictions between gospels.
There is a problem with your assumption, on the first day God made the Day and Night, on the fourth day he divided the light to make the stars for the night and the light for the day. This was to separate the night from the day by giving light to the night so that there will be seasons and days but he already created the Day and the NightI wasn't in the mood to be repetitive in my assertions that these stories are of a mythical nature mixed in with historical reference.

First of all, where does it say "he ?" in the original scriptures.

* according to the Bible - Jesus, under the teaching of the Father, built the Church of God in Matthew 16:18, but i agree that the Catholicism is not the continuation of the 1st century Church... Peter is not the first pope of Catholics... Paul never taught anything different from Jesus, but he helped leading the Church...

Not true. The following link shows some of the differences. Please review and explain.

I'm trying not to cut and paste the scriptures from that web site, but I guess that is what I will have to do. Maybe that will get you to explain to me how you can ignore obvious contradictions.
I will post some from that web site later. I am going to go work out now...
