Fact is: others here just read it all and then comment on the most egregious (look it up, big-M!). Like his stuff. It's SOOO easy to pick his illogical prattle apart: it's prime fodder for going after what is arguably the very worst of what's here on the R&P.

BTW, Mickiel, how's your self-taught learning about The SM coming along? [I can tutor you... for a reasonable fee.].

I am already getting it from you free; I am just continually amazed at how many people choose to read " The very worst" this place has to offer.

The difference is that I know fantasy is not real...Theists such as yourself think that it is.

I agree! You tell us all so often how so many people read & follow along on your stuff! And for free no less!

PS: If you have been doing your homework assignments, you really ought to turn them in from time to time! Else, how am I supposed to grade your efforts at self-improvement?

God knows you need it after all... I mean, you don't want to remain incorrigibly and intractably ignorant of the truth all your life, do you? I mean, do you?


Oh and PPS: Please leave the teacher's apple where I can find it, OK?

Or any of the the other fabulous things we can now do? DNA mapping which has proven Evolution, and radioactive decay dating of very old rocks and artifacts to within 0.01% accuracy? All of which tend to gang upon the old parables and goat-herder fantasy tales.

!

I think this is reasonable, and for many things in scripture one could discover a biochemical process that explains what has occured. Someone turning into a pillar of salt can be explained, or even turned into ash; floods can be explained, earthquakes, trees never bearing fruit again, rods turning into snakes, lightning comming from the sky, the moon or sun being blackened out, these things are not fantasy; now I admit there are things that cannot be explained;

and science admits to that as well.

I want to know how they knew she was salt and not some other substance that just looked like salt.
Did they do a taste test?

I accidently threw away my notes on the process, but it has to do with being in a volcanic eruption, the body being covered with a type of volcanic ash, which eventually turns into salt; it went something like that, but I have to get back to you on that one; they in fact discovered many human bodies preserved like this almost perfectly in their original form, just crystalized. And some of them were just " Outer shells , perfectly cast, with nothing inside of them", the molten lava crystalized them, burnt their bodies but cooled around them forming a perfect cast of their bodies; and that cast turned into salt.
