    I love your signature line. Republicans hate Obama for wanting to help the Hispanics obtain a path to citizenship and most of them either don't remember or don't want to remember that in 1986 their hero, Ronald Reagan signed a bill which was supposed to grant amnesty to 2 1/2 million but ultimately made about five million new American citizens who had entered America illegally. The bill only specified that the illegal was required to have entered America before January1, 1982.

    Are you saying that I told a lie in post #172? If you are then you are calling me a liar.

    This just occurred to me. Was the purpose of that non-sequiter to test the authenticity of my Christianity?
    Paul wrote that Jesus was the last Adam.
    I'm also more literalist than the other poster. However I trust only what the Bible actually says, not interpretations or forced messages others favor.
    The serpent in question was possibly a lizard with legs and that one species was demoted to snakes.
    It's possible other animals looked different and talked but were also punished by an adjustment that was inconvenient.
    Call that anti-revolutionary change.

    So if Jesus was the last Adam was the first Adam just an idea or was he a real person? Who was the last Methuselah? Who was the last George Washington?

    The serpent in Genesis was an Egyptian pharaoh and Adam was just a local bigwig in the Assyrian Empire who had collaborated with him against the Assyrian Emperor. Once his treason came to light the Emperor kicked him to the curb. The story continues with the Assyrian military forces sweeping through the area like a flood (Noah and his ark phase). The Egyptian pharaohs used a figure of a serpent (snake) on their crown.

    Since Assyria, Ethiopia, and Arabia existed when Adam was running around in the Garden just down the road from Assyria and they existed after Noah's flood only misguided people believe in actual talking serpents. Is Mickey Mouse real?

    Not necessarily.....I could just be saying you are "mistaken"?

    Then without offering PROOF of that alleged 'mistaken' position, you are doing what?

    You are the first to make a claim suggesting that I was mistaken... so prove that I was mistaken. Else you have indeed called me a liar.

    You have not proven that you did not call me a liar even after I first challenged you on that subject.

    I asked if you were calling me a liar, and your response was less than convincing when you stated that "you might have been mistaken". So, in either scenario, you calling me a liar or you stating that I might have been mistaken, the burden of proof is on you. Either prove that I am a liar or prove that I was mistaken.

    Do you believe any of that post?
    Do you believe the author of Genesis believed that way?

    The English wrote the Bible as a gift to the Pope, who never had one. The English writers included a lot of nonsense in it because they knew that the Pope didn't know any better. And now, in the 21st Century, supposedly intelligent Americans are just as dumb as a 6th Century Pope. The English writers would be LTAO.

    I'm not a creationist, but as a Christian, it really doesn't matter.

    Shakespeare allegedly wrote some of the bible and let it be known in Psalm 46. Shakespeare was 46 at the time of writing in 1611 and was an employee of King James also.

    The species would have been comparable to our first human species called Sahelanthropus tchadensis:

    [​IMG]


    Gen. 4:1 And Adam, (an eponym for a whole species concurrent with Sahelanthropus tchadensis), knew Eve, (the Sahelanthropus tchadensis source-mother of the next evolution in the Ascent of Man), his wife, (a virgin to Father Nature); and (her impregnation accompanied by genetic mutation), she conceived, (creating a new line of humanoids), and bare Cain, (Ardipithecus ramidus), and said, I have gotten a man, (another species of hominoid), from the LORD (by genetic mutation in my ovaries).

    If some guy just wrote the Genesis genealogy down, as a guess or way out idea, he did amazingly well in choosing 22 names.

    Those 22 names correspond to those 22 now extinct species our paleontologists have decided were the line of our actual ascent:

    This same story is reported in this book:

    [​IMG]

    And the facts are that three racial stocks of modern man populated the whole world, even to the mountain tops after they"flooded" out-of-Africa 40 thousand nights and days of years ago!

    Gen. 4:1 And Adam, (the fictional robot created by Eando Binder), knew Eve, (the space-based trading and combat MMORPG), his wife, (FM 94.3, Rushville's place for all the country hits); and (humping his brains out like a sea lion in heat), she conceived, (creating the X-men), and bare Cain, (Day Shift Supervisor for the Miami-Dade Crime Lab), and said, I have gotten a man, (the 1992 hip hop song by American rapper Positive K ), from the LORD (a river in British Columbia, Canada).

    The genealogy is telling us that man evolved through 22 different "kinds,"... from a first Adam to the last type, an Adam which will make us all be the sons-of-god:

    John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

    Yes,... but your comments do not conform with evolution.
    They do not make the 22 human species in our Paleontology compare with the truth and what is stated in Genesis.

    My comments supply the information which shows the comparison fits:

    (1) Adam, (an eponym for a whole species concurrent with Sahelanthropus tchadensis).
    (2) Cain, (Ardipithecus ramidus)
    (3) Enoch, (Australopithecus afarensis, Lucy).
    (4) Irad (a species concurrent with Australopithecus boisei).
    (5) Mehujael (species concurrent with Australopithecus robustus).
    (6) Methusael (Homo ergaster, Early Homo erectus).
    (7) Lamech (Homo antecessor, and the daughters of men: Gen 6:3-4)
    The story was covered in - Discover Dec. 1997 issue.
    Homo antecessor is likely a direct ancestor of Modern Homo sapiens, living 750,000 years ago and evolving into Homo heidelbergensis.
    (8) Jabal, (Heidelbergensis Neanderthal)
    appearing in the fossil record living roughly 600,000 to 250,000 years ago
    (9) Jubal (Homo neanderthal).
    (10) Tubal-cain, (H. floriensis, nicknamed Hobbit, existed up until 18kya.)

    Plus,...

    (11) Seth, (Australopithecus anamensis)
    (12) Enos, (Australopithecus africanus)
    (13) Cainan, (Australopithecus aethiopicus)
    (14) Mahalaleel, (Australopithecus garhi)
    (15) Jared, (a species concurrent with Homo rudolfensis)
    (16) Enoch, (Homo habilis, walked with God towards the final evolution of Homoiousian man)
    (17) Methuselah, (Modern Homo erectus: China, SE Asia H. Erectus)
    (18) Lamech, (Homo antecessor)
    (19) Noah, (a type of Early Homo sapiens forebearer)
    (20) Shem, (Mongolian)
    (21) Ham, (Negroid)
    (22) Japheth, (Caucasian)

    The science facts support me here in this analogy and the bible seems confirmed about including this seemingly uninteresting listing until we learn how important it actually is here.
