    so the summaries of comprehension from the previous generations can be learned and understood....!!!!!

    each LIFE.

    ie... Darwin is in the GRAVE and yet what HE left, what he did, his contribution to existence still lives (HE lives)

    Darwin, WON!

    i comprehend how jesus lives and live in all of us.

    YOU dont!

    and like DARWIN, jesus left knowledge for others (us) to comprehend.

    ie....a great 'teacher'

    evidence?

    the whole divide of creationist and truth

    which law?
    what? I thought 'the laws' are gods laws. So which 'law' of god underwrites the 'laws of phyiscs'?

    gravity, weak, strong, em............... tell us which god wrote the laws?

    you think the bible is it (which mankind created)

    actually, your mommy and dady did the wild thing. They gave up a part of themselves (sperm/egg) to make you, naturally speaking and they live in you based on that contribution.

    Basically, when you mislead, you dishonor your mother and father.

    sure i can

    again, mankind 'created' and that knowledge evolved within the body of god (nature) for you to read it


    and mankind created the book of genesis and the story you are reading.


    ie... mankind created the 'god' you be begging to

    Nature is the god that created mankind thru the 'laws' of evolution, naturally speaking of course

    Not exclusively. Truth can consist completely of a priori propositions, i.e. propositions that are true simply because they are true. Then there are of course axiomatic propositions, which may be analytically sound (2+2=4 is true because 4-2=2, which again is true because 2+2=4) but only verifiable by themselves, i.e. in practice also non-verifiable a priori propositions.

    Scripture is quite clear on the topic, and based on religion, you are absolutely correct.


    Hebrews 11
    1Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

    Faith is truth for the believer, and no other proof is necessary.
    For others, it falls woefully short.

    so of nature the 'a priori' proposition is that 'we' are alive.

    That means, 'we' are capable of creating as proven by what mankind has done to nature.

    Has tomorrow gotten here yet? Ironically, I am always 'living' n the here and now.

    BTW: IMHO, the Bible is actually the First word and the Last word with regard to what it represents.

    I see, so you are saying that there is no real definition for truth with regard to religion. Didn't I already tell you that?

    No! The comprehensions of another are merely his/her comprehensions. When he/she attempts to pass them on to others, there is always the potential of either error in reporting or error in receiving. So if you want to rely on technicalities, then be accurate as possible.

    'each LIFE.' What?

    Metaphorically... hmmm. Interesting... that would mean subjectively.

    In that case, Jesus won... long before Darwins parents even met.


    Explain that spiritual secret to all of us. Tell us how God does things.

    Projecting again?

    Jesus was not known to write anything.... has your memory bank failed you?

    Then you should study with comprehension instead of screwing up like you did in the previous statement.

    Where?

    What about that 'whole divide of creationist and truth? Your incomplete thoughts are atrocious.

    Using his spoken Word to cause the creation.

    None of your feeble, infantile, ramblings are 'god' . Now where you get the notion of "weak" or "strong" as being laws....? I would surely like to see you explain and show where those laws are written.

    Please show me where I stated that there is no religious definition for 'truth". And no! You did not already say that. You might have inferred that but to my recall, you did not specifically state such a thing.

    So, no one else wants to take a stab at giving their opinion of what "truth" is? There have been quite a few opinions but seemingly no one has been able to show or demonstrate what 'truth' is. Why?

    A problem to demonstrate what truth is? Take a heavy stone - smash it with all your power down on your foot. The bones of your foot will break. In case your bones will break really (if you would do so - hopefully not) then I would had said the truth.

    i do.

    ie... you just claimed the babble is the last word, yet within, it states until the days, the last word aint known.

    sorry.... the FACT is, darwins works are literally what has affected the understanding of how the 'tree of life' can be represented, and he personally is not making the choice but what he did, is causing people to learn beyond the rhetoric of a subjectivity to babbling idiots

    i know jesus left 'good' in his works. but idiots calling him 'christ' when he 'charged' (per babble) not to call him that, is like abusing jesus' name and what he was all about:

    need i remind YOU.

    nature is GOD. Go see HIM for yourself and therein KNOW thyself
    i know that. But as a teacher, he left quality material and babbling idiots have ruined much of the message in the inconsistancies of the babbliing idiot 'writings'

    it is like, darwin knew, observed and recorded what he identified in 'transmutations'....... He DID NOT know the mechanism and was fair about that and in honesty. BUT MORONS suggest HE is wrong, when in fact, he was not and it is the NEXT generations that will perfect what GOOD he assisted with.

    Same with JESUS' works

    MORONS often ruin what the true contributors shared with stupidity.
    what divide? There is no such thing as a 'nothing' (ie..... a creation from 'nothing')

    i aint a big banging idiot either

    mankind uses the spoken word.......... ie... mankind created the word


    ie...mankind created that 'god' thing that you believe is sitting on a thrown in some utter place, with some hell with some utter dude sitting in that place


    Mankind created your pagen beliefs!

    I have and your post just represented a LIE!

    Truth is bound to what is real. Reality, not make believe.

    Bible is not the last word, nor is it the 'truth' in reality!

    The manmade god of your belief cant even write!

    Truth is fact in object.

    Truth is subjective in thought

    Truth (from a religious perspective, from an atheist no less) might be akin to the only possible answer of I AM from the deity. TRUTH is I AM essence.

    Well, give it a try, take some pictures of the resulting effect that it had, then we can at least consider the authenticity of the pics and try to make a determination as to whether it was a pic of your foot or the foot of someone else, and whether the pic had been altered in any way...etc. Let us know.

    You still stuck on that issue? Since that posting that you made, people have made all sorts of postings without first consulting me to see if I would allow them to be posted. Obviously your posting at #46 is in error. Now, back on topic.

    Well, considering that tomorrow ain't here, then you really don't know if "the babble" is or is not the last word, do you?
