Believe it or not, I've never met a Christian that says that God should rule the country. That's a strawman argument that you seem to enjoy tossing out.

I think we've all heard that one. Jesus became eternal sometime in the third or fourth century and since then he has existed forever. Funny that the OT didn't automatically update itself.

Interesting find though if it shakes out.
Not to worry. The fundie evo's will make sure it does.

You would if you could, but you can't.

Thanks for confirming that you can't.

When you figure out how the universe and life originated, get back to me.

You are half right, which is more than usual. God is my friend.

Another brilliant response that avoids the subject.

Do you ever answer question put to you? So far you have been obsessed with giant crab. Now I understand why to don't answer them, but if you don't soon, everyone will know what I know---YOU CAN'T.

IN THE BEGINNING was the word and the Word was with God and the Word WAS GOD. If you need any help understanding that verse, just ask.

Something that is out of date does not need updating.

So far that has been my experience with all of the evo fundamentalist in the forum. I am curious why you usually try to change the subject instead of answering the questions. I'v got it: you would if you could, but you can't.
