You really need to take more of an interest in Christianity than just skimming the surface in order to ridicule. I bet you didn't know that not all of us believe exactly the same things.
Here's something I bet you didn't know.
"Faith is personal".
There are things Chris T and I disagree on when it comes to our faith. That doesn't make his or my beliefs any less valid. Why? Because it's
personal.

Where does it depict that? Is that another armchair expert's view?

Again, skimming the surface in order to ridicule isn't doing your case any good. You want to point out where I said I don't believe in evolution?

I
could give my answer to that only you wouldn't accept it.

As above.

Ditto

Noah transcended time and space? Wow I must have missed The Bible 2007. Anyway if you have any genuine questions, I suggest you look on
www.godandscience.org - the only problem there is you've got no-one to try and ridicule.
Welcome back to the forum btw.
