"Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."
Sad, one reason I don't believe in Yahweh anymore is he has no problems making billions of humans, he knows ahead of time will end up in his supposed hell. Good thing it's not real. If I die and face it, it's utter cruelty will disgust me anyway and I won't be able to fake any love for it anyway.
ReplyDeleteDear Peeps, tell me about sad, but what do i know...guess that's why i didn't get the email-invite to participate in the creation meeting.
ReplyDeleteI learned yesterday watching a PBS TV show, that the world had 3 billion years where basically this was a rock without even plant life and then there was a sea full of life for some millions of years while no life on land. They backed all this up showing fossils even cracking open new rocks, so no Satan hiding fossils to fool people. Learning about the epics of the world, examining fossil evidence. The story of creation in the Bible is a human guess. Is it possible a "Source" or Divine Being created the universe and all of life? Yes. I admit that, but the Christian story is far too limited. This giant universe and a little petty God that wants to send most to hell, that's a problem. It is a human creation. It is weird for me to explain to conservative Christians if a God is real, theirs is "too small".

Dear Peeps, if i don't have to $ubscribe to anything... yep, used to be fascinated with the idea of earth being some 4.6 billion years old, and that the meteor storms didn't let up enough until about 3.9 bya for protocell to get started. There was an article in a science magazine (it was at the laundromat) called "Earth's Firery Cradle." The article claimed, that instead of life starting during the post-storm 3.5 bya calmer period, life had made a few attempts during the storms. Oh the changes.
ReplyDeleteWhen my Dad was a school-boy, during the mid 1930s, earth was 2 billion years old, and there was absolutely no life at all for about 3 quarters of that time-period. Guess the scientists didn't have electron microscopes, or just didn't have the money. The scientists had extended the time-line in the 1920s, but i don't think the schools back then ordered new textbooks every year.
Read this book:

The Catholics kept me ignorant of science and evolution. I didnt' even know the planet had epochs or that dinosaurs were an later epoch until I was in my 40s, this book helped wake me up.
The Bible doesn't have science that is real. I was in creationist churches in my case. IFB. Even the Catholics when I was young while they nodded at the existence of evolution there's a reason they didn't teach us Catholic school kids too much about it.
