Now that this is it's own thread...

ChrisV1, I think that this may be the second time you and I agree on something. I addressed the idea of God showing himself to prove his existence in the Atheist Hate thread. I addressed it this same way. That if he proved to everyone that he existed then it would destroy faith and faith is the foundation of Christianity and the other Abrahamic religions. However, you still did not dispute the fossil record showing evidence quite contrary to the accounts presented in Genesis 1.

I also read through the article you posted and found it quite interesting. The only problem is that if this hypothesis were the case, this would render Mary sterile. The Bible suggests that Mary had more children following the birth of Christ. (Matt 12:46-47, Matt 13:55, Mark 6:2-3, John 2:12). There are many more references in the canonized New Testament as well as many of the Uncanonized books and Gospels. So are we to believe that ALL these children were miracle births as well?

Now, when you get on the subject of the absolute beginning of everything neither side is correct or wrong conclusively. You're talking about the creation of time and space. This is a concept so far beyond our means to understand it. How do you measure the beginning of time?

Rocky32189, if you're going to cite the Bible as a reference you should probably present the verse and line. Not only will it make it easier for everyone but I will keep you from looking like a presumptuous ass. I personally do not recall the Bible stating that the Earth is the center of the universe. I could be wrong. if you've got that information then please post it for everyone to see.
