Can You Adam And Eve It?

This is a well known story from the bible, that is told to us countless times when we are children.

I'm not an expert, but the story as I know it goes like this...

God (no choice, it's the start of a sentence) made Adam out of clay, then noticing that Adam was looking a little frustrated decided to make a little play mate for him. A bit short on materials 'god' decides that the only thing he can use is one of Adam's ribs...

Now, I'd like to ignore the bollocks about the apple and the talking snake, and concentrate on the bollocks of the bible's version of the creation or formation of man.

Already, this very statement makes men different to women. It actually implies that men and women are made of different materials. You either believe that we were somehow magically created by a god that completely ignores the complexity of life and the history BEFORE man, or you listen to common sense.

Animals have been PROVEN to evolve, not just animals... plants, even germs.

If God created us then who created God? It's a simple question but it can't be answered mainly due to God not existing.

heres is one for you skunk. How about a collective conscience with transfiring energy. Basis of God backed by science.

You mean, human collective conscious? Or Alien?

there was a misinterpretation in the bible. adam was making ribs and hollered at god yoh let me get some b1tches. god's like 'aight but let me get one of them ribs' leave it up to the boring puritans of the past to take a regular afternoon story and turn it into some long winded rant about nothing much. god needed one of them ribs because he was hungry, not to do his magic.

human shunk and that is funny battosai

And by basis of god do you mean creator?

We could not have consciously created ourselves if to begin with we were proteins of no conscience.

your understanding of God.

No, An understanding of 'god'.

There is no god... never has been.

The earliest form of control, and it still holds power today. In a hundred more years this world will be a very different place... the only religous (if you believe in a god, to my mind you are religous) types left will be in the lunatic asylums.

Yes, God took a rib from Man to make Woman. And, what rib was it? It was the rib that used to go all around the front of the stomach. The purpose of that rib was to hold Man's stomach in. So ladies ... the next time you scold your man about his beer belly, remember, you were made from the Beer Rib and that belly on your man is all your fault!

You actually believe this Vi'?

I mean, really?


Even with what we know about dna... even now that we have mapped out the entire human genome?

If you took a rib from Adam and cloned him you would get another Adam.

Of COURSE I believe that, Skunk! And remember ... with Devine Intervention, cloning can be anything God wants it to be. Again ... without that Beer Rib, Man cannot control the size of his belly.

woe as be to you who do not believe. I believe in God, but hey, that's just me. I will pray for all you nonbelievers, but it wont do any good, because YOU have to ask for your own redemption. It's gonna be an awful shock to the nonbelievers when you are left here to await your oblivious destruction. But then again you don't believe it's gonna happen. So what's to worry about......but just in case.... do you want to really take THAT chance? Just some more stuff to ponder.

God is, was, and ever shall be. If man could fathom this simple sentance there would be no question of his existance.

so in principle God is energy? is that the inkling that you believe man cannot fathom?

close but no cigar Man, all wrapped up in this little world called earth could not possibly fathom omnipotance. But is informed, thru the bible, that with faith all questions WILL be answered. Christianity teaches this, and with my own faith i'll be there to get the answers to my questions. Sinners and nonbelievers, wont even get to ask the questions. Principally, God could be energy, or he could be very organic. He and the bible just says... have patience, faith, trust in Him, and you too could ask the questions. Besides, my faith is steadfast. No inkling about it.
Peace, which some people say... just cause it's cool, I really mean it.

ok for starters lets disect your bible. I was written by one man to unify christianity. he decided what books to go into it. there are alot of books not recognized by you belief for fear of collapsing it. and I hate to be the bearer of bad news but we do understand omnipotance; afterall, we would never had made a word for it. we may not understand what it entails though. so what you are saying is that nonbelievers and sinners will not make it into your heaven right? so only your small population of the earth will make it to heaven. thats alot of hindus, buddhists, and muslims left on the table. sounds sad to me. oh yeah energy is organic. my signature says peace lol it's ironic.

I cannot stand evangelicals with their holier than thou art complex. they believe that the bible holds all their answers. it is like a compilation of incoherrent babbling written so abstractly that people misconstrue it to fit what they believe. they take their beliefs and form cults so that their voices can be heard. sad I must say. Nimbliez, take a look at the Dalai Lama and wonder why your God does not infest him but yet he is happy. He is not even going to your Heaven. Food for thought.

i have No questions of my existence. i AM at peace.

i don't get it.

this is why it angers me fdd, there is a collective of individuals in our society that state that if I do not succomb to their god I will have everlasting damnation. they say i am a fool for being agnostic. they judge me without knowing who I am or where I have been. a vast majority of christians have taken on the crusade of being saviors of this world and pushing their religions down other peoples throats. I wish people could just live and let live.
