no its for real this time Fabian, i have had enough. I shall limit my participation to Biblical topics, using what scant powers of understanding that i may chance to stumble upon in the infinite darkness of my being - wish you well - regards robbie.
Let me have a last posting too:
Robbie, You are not more nor less fundamentalistic than other fundamentalists but you are sounder than others. I respect your views when I'm sure that it comes from within your heart, not wrapped in humour so I cannot rely of what you really mean and what you're trying to joke away.
We don't always agree to everything, sure, but I've always followed your words. You are allowed to have any opinion, as I am, as everyone is. You are even allowed to be a creationist of young earth caliber. But when you start to argue that you are right, and noone else is, then I take my right to criticize your words, your arguments. Not to ridicule you, but to find out what you really mean. Because I know you are intelligent. If you use your retorics properly you can go far.
Now, if these are the final words between you and me, than I wish you good hunting in other threads. I will be more gentle in the future.

Originally posted by daniel58Not that I believe this at all, but if god had made us in its image, why does that immediately preclude us from being animals.
NO!!! HUMANS ARE NOT ANIMALS!!! God wouldn't have said, He made us in His "Likeness and Image"
Couldn't the image of gd be animalistic?
What part of scripture says this isn't the case?

1. Because they don't have human souls and human souls were the only thing that God referred that to.
2. "The image of God" that isn't relevant because we can't see Him and "images" are something how we think of Him, something to see, not really hoe He is.

Originally posted by daniel58If you must incorrectly correct people, don't give the same definition for two different words. Also, a prelude (sic) is a build-up or preparation into something bigger, a bit like fore-play.
