    You do know we have dinosaur fossils, right? You know, those big lizards from 65 million years ago?

    I met a man who wasn't there.
    He wasn't there again today.
    I wish, I wish he'd go away.

    And they were buried under hundreds of tons of dried up mud

    PLEASE show me a fossil uncovered from SAND.

    sand does not leave tracks well.

    If you're hunting for dinosaurs, you couldn't pick a better place than the North American deserts. Here in the arid regions of the Southwest, a sequence of geologic and climatic conditions have preserved, and then unearthed the remains of many fantastic reptiles from our ancient past. While many sites are concentrated in the famous "Dinosaur Diamond" -- a 550-mile route following several highways through western Colorado and eastern Utah -- all of the desert states contain good hunting grounds for dinosaur fossils.
    Oh, and about sand:

    Trackways (sets of footprints) - Dinosaur tracks, usually made in mud or fine sand, have been found at over 1500 sites, including quarries, coal mines, riverbeds, deserts, and mountains. There are so many of these fossils because each dinosaur made many tracks and because tracks fossilize well.

    all i learned from the bible is how one book about "good" could create so much evil and harm in people.

    sure it teaches good moral(in views of some i personly disagree with alot of it.) but its a book none the less and shouldnt be followed to take another mans life or make his life worse which was common through out time and the present.

    this is my opinion so dont get upset at all. i dont disapprove of your religion i simply disagree with it.

    The current evidence suggests that the pyramids were built by paid workers, not slaves. The slave idea dates back to the Greeks and it's largely inaccurate.

    Not that the Egyptians didn't keep slaves (they certainly did, and they left records of it), just that they likely weren't used to build the pyramids.


    edit: Speaking of Pyramids, they pose a serious problem for the Deluge account. Several of them predate the time when the flood should have scoured the earth (and given the rate of rain needed to match the biblical account, they wouldn't have been left standing).

    If you can't find the answer in the Bible, you can always send God a knee-mail.

    Matias, I've decided to delete a bunch of your posts, because pasting stuff from the bible into a thread, for no purpose whatsoever, is no different from normal spamming.

    Either you cut it out, or I cut you out.

    Damn, I wish that made sense.

    Well, we are heathens.

    Did my post get deleted too? Either that or I never actually posted it. Who cares.

    Im sorry i was spamming. I felt like others were mocking me and spamming as well. When i started this thread it was about posting scriptures. Im not sure if i did things right in the free for all forum. I cant post scriptures in FFall?

    What do i do when i feel spammed do i report the post?

    Where can i just post scriptures over and over and over? The hangout? Where can i start a thread and just post scriptures?

    I also noticed my upgrades are gone with my user name and title. Why were they edited?

    The only place you can go to post your scriptures "over and over" would be your Journal. Anywhere else, it would be considered spam.

    As far as I know, no one can edit your title upgrades.
