Read these scriptures:
Mark 6:30-44
Matthew 14:13-21
Luke 9:10-17

Why do you think the versions of one story are so different?
Because its a load of shight thats why.

Hmm.. you cant claim that god didnt present himself to the cavemen in some way. Neither can you claim that he did. Plus f*** it.. if u dont believe in god thats your problem. Sooner or later even the murderers ask for god to help them when they are about to die. :roll: And errr.. people who believe in god dont fear him, just respect him. Plus this looks like a serious discussion so i dont see the logic when some of you put a joke to send the topic in a different direction.
And infinity and eternity is easy to think of, never ending. I dont see whats complicated about that. walking around a circle until you find a dead end..

hmm if u find a dead end it's not never ending...

And perhaps the jokes was posted to lighten things up, and when has there been logic involved in this discussion? We are talking about belief and that's far from logic to me anyway.

I personally would love to add more to this discussion

Excalibur wrote:No I don't unless u can answer a few of my questions here's 1 .. Adam and Eve had only 3 sons according to the bible so did they make other kids out of thin air ?? or play party incest games with there mother.
Just because the Bible only talked of the 3 sons doesn't mean that there weren't any more. The Bible doesn't claim to be an exaustive history of mankind. I personally don't take all of the old testement literally. I haven't read much of the old testement lately so i can't say where, exactly, the story ends and the history begins (in my mind).

F?anor Bauglir wrote:I know that the bible was written by loads of people over a wast period of time, has the parts been individually dated or is there a specific date for the hole book?
Click here! for some dates. Now i just did a quick google search to find this site, so i can really say anything about its credibility. It's just to give you an idea. (btw- for the book of Hebrews, no one knows who the author is)

There are some links to the text of those passages (New International Version because its my preference).

Perhaps one reason that the different tellings of the story are slightly different is the fact that different people wrote it. It's not like the dif. versions are contradicting each other. They just have slightly different details. Since these books were written about 20-30 years after the death of Jesus would you expect them to all remember it exactly the same way? Even in a court of law, the testimony eye witnesses are taken with a grain of salt due to many possible things affectings their perception of the events.

The idea, I BELIEVE, is not that God has the gun to your head, but that sin/the devil/temptation/whatever has already shot you but if you believe (in Jesus as God and that whole deal) then you will not die but have eternal life. [just to continue with your idea]

FLAKEY:
uhhh...
John 6:1-15 is the feeding of the five-thousand story in John, and it's really not all that different.

ALL IN ALL
- sorry for the really long post
- Feanor: discussion of the idea of the infinite is fun
- I don't mean anyone any disrespect
- exception: KIGGER: please stop posting in this thread, you are not adding anything worthwhile and are insulting what i believe in.

gunkata just pwned you all. cya in heaven gunkata!

one comment short cause im not too l33t....the bible has exactly what god wants in it he is all powerful and no one could possibly change anything that he doesnt want changed. if or when it has been altered or mistranslated it was allowed for a reason only god knows. hes clever like that cause hes God.

also no disrespect intended here as well. but i wont be ashamed of him and i wont feel bad for trying to help someone who doesnt believe in him. id hope if i was lost someone would try to help me find him.

love you all you too Kigger!
