The fool is thought to be wise when he keeps silent, even when he does not understand what is being said.

Good day to you Shakyamunison. God bless.

Then take your own advice and stop talking.

Tis not my belief that God is limited - no indeed he is not, however, my knowledge of him, as well as my understanding of him, is the limiting factor.

and the catch 22 lives on.....

They don't see it. 😱

Is they saw it they would have dealt with it already.

Or they're jsut ignoring it because they CANT deal with it.

Might be hard to crucify a giraffe.

Has it been played out thousands of time already throughout the universe? Will it not continue to do so too?

If for instance, on a remote planet across the galaxy where Christ also lived, but looked like (oh, I don't know, let's say) a giraffe, because all the inhabitants of intelligent life on this particular planet looked like giraffes, wouldn't he have been crucified there also? Has this scene not taken place already on thousands of planets across the universe? Get my drift?

If God in his splendor, put this whole time machine known as the universe in motion, with limitless possibilities for intelligent life; and as such allows for limitless possibilties for different physical features of intelligent life elsewhere, wouldn't He also have sent Christ (in some physically different, relative form) to spread His message on these life sustaining planets also?

Interesting question BobbyD however the Scriptures indicate that Jesus will never die for sins again. He is done doing this forever.

Romans 6:9-10
9 knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, dies no more. Death no longer has dominion over Him. 10 For the death that He died, He died to sin once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.

Hebrews 9:25
25 not that He should offer Himself often, as the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood of another—

Hebrews 9:28
28 so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.

Hebrews 10:12
12 But this Man, after He had offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the right hand of God,

Thank you for your irrelevent comments, as always.

Could it be that He is only done doing this for (US) humans forever? 😕

What about them? There is no conflict with dinosaurs and the accounts referenced in biblical works -- or is there? You have heard of the term "behemoth" and "leviathan" haven't you? If not, then I'm quite certain, that yourself and others of like minded rationale -- will give a typical response to the question I've posed. One which defines the earth as being "millions" of years old -- which then of course, discounts the entire creation story -- as it is referenced in the bible.

This is assuming of course-- that I am limited to interpreting the belief system you subscribe to as valid, which would seem to be a rather pointless and irrational limitation imposed upon me.

So what then does thou have to attest to regarding the validity of the "assumption" of earth being "billions" of years old? Radiometric dating? Carbon dating? Yes, these methods are extremely accurate when measuring dates above a several thousand year time period -- are they not? He he he..perhaps everyone can see where I'm going with this?

Now, whilst thou ponders about how to respond to my inquiries, do take into account, that my interpretation of life, does indeed -- have historical merit to it.

So how does thou like those apples?

..But the Earth IS billions of years old. There's no other evidence to disprove otherwise.

It is something about the volume of the sun decreasing at a certain rate each year. If the rate it is currently decreasing at was consistent throught the last few billion years, the sun would have been so large that it would have consumed Earth as few as two billion years ago. Or something like that... Interesting thought. I think I will need to look into it more...
