I am answering the replies one by one, and I have replied to your valuable reply in the post no. 42 page 5 of this thread.
LOL! I've read all your posts. It sounds like you're losing track. Sure, I'll be glad to reply to Post #42, page 5. But I'd like you to first answer this previous post (post #52, page 6). Just click the link. That way it'll help clarify your thinking. Did Noah live 950 years?
have you any book giving better guidance of God, than what is included in the Torah and the Quran?
How should I know? God hasn't shown up in person to provide guidance, so I'm left with his self-appointed representatives - who sure can't get their stories straight.
One of them tried to tell me that gravity and temperature is linked. Now, I can walk out in God's creation and test that, and it's just not so. If you're going to be wrong on something that basic, why should I trust you on anything else?
/Disclaimer: I don't believe in God. But if I did, I'd trust his creation over whatever book you wave at me. Savvy?
There is a limited utility in trying to reason with folks that take the Bible literally.
By definition they do not understand logic and science.
According to all these replies, it is obvious that atheists do not consider any idea other than insisting on thier atheism and blasphemy, so whatever one may tell them, they will go on blindly in the darkness of their ignorance and stubbornness.
Moreover, it seems some atheists here do some group work.
I couldn't actually stand to read an entire thread where some people argued that the Noah myth (and probably his ridiculous ark too) were actually literal, so I skipped down.
I don't know if anyone mentioned it before, but one of my favorite websites for humour is this:
I laugh everytime I read this. For those who haven't seen this amusing one-page site before, enjoy.
The mockery of Noah's people
The mockery of some people here is like the mockery of the people of Noah, as in the Quran 11: 38
وَيَصْنَعُ الْفُلْكَ وَكُلَّمَا مَرَّ عَلَيْهِ مَلأٌ مِّن قَوْمِهِ سَخِرُواْ مِنْهُ قَالَ إِن تَسْخَرُواْ مِنَّا فَإِنَّا نَسْخَرُ مِنكُمْ كَمَا تَسْخَرُونَ . فَسَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ مَن يَأْتِيهِ عَذَابٌ يُخْزِيهِ وَيَحِلُّ عَلَيْهِ عَذَابٌ مُّقِيمٌ
The explanation:
(So he [and his comrades] were building the Ark;
and whenever a council of his people [who unbelieved] passed by [Noah] they scoffed at him.
He said: "If you scoff at us [this day], we shall surely scoff at you [in the future], as you scoff [this day.]"
"But soon you will come to know [the consequences of your ridicule, and] to whom will come a chastisement degrading him [in this World],
and upon whom there shall settle a lasting chastisement [in the Hereafter.]")
When you post such silly made up nonsense you should expect that sort of response...Sorry but to state what you have as fact contains a lot more conceit than my saying I don't know, but here is the best opinion.
It isn't any difficulty to me, that I can answer you with your same words or more, but I shall not.
Billions of years ago? Just how long ago do you think it was when Noah was around? After all, you were talking about Noah. Just a wild guess would be fine.
About 5000 years ago or more, or about 3000 BC or more.

What makes you think I am an atheist?
I am talking about science, and you obviously know nothing about science. You prove it with your nonsensical assertions. But, people that believe in the Bible are prone to do that.
That has nothing to do with what deity I do, or do not believe in.
