Ah I see from your profile you're muslim. You're just as bad as those silly christians, only your religion is still nowadays more violent; at least christianity in that sense has been curbed by LAW & ORDER in the West.
The funny thing is (if it weren't so sad) is how convinced they are of their own superstitions, and never for one second doubt the silliness of the creationist 'scientists' they so happily quote.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if some religious nut came up with that. Then again, in the vatican museum I did see a single strand of straw, preserved in a solid gold reliquary which must have weighed at least 50kgs, which is claimed to be one of the hays that lined jesus' manger in betlehem.
I wonder who the enterprising jew back then preserved that bit of hay in plastic for future christian generations to ooohh and ahhhh at!
No I just don't like answers that are STUPID and with no shred of SCIENTIFIC PROOF in them. How does your stupid site explain that carbon dating estimates the dinosaur fossils to be MILLIONS of years old?
Yes there is an element of mistake in carbon dating, but that is only a margin of error of a century here and there depending on the degradation of the material in question. There is a HUGE difference from a century to millions of years don't you think?
You know, if you weren't so pitiful you'd be a real laughable basket case with your silly ideas.
Don't tell me you seriously believed all that clap trap about dinosaurs going extinct because they didn't fit into noah's ark?
If you really do, then you're an even worst case scenario than I ever considered you before lady!
I suggest you do follow your own advice and start asking questions, but from REAL scientific and historical fact as opposed to the fairy tale mumbo jumbo that is currently affecting your brain in a truly negative way!
If your read my previous post in the way it should be understood, I was not saying dinosaurs didn't exist. Of course they existed, MILLIONS OF YEARS before the first human even evolved.
I was merely challenging you to see what sort of explanation you would come up with for the dinosaurs' existence, considering your preciuos little fairy tale book has failed to mention the dinos. By the way, contrary to 19th century belief, dinosaurs are the ancestors of birds, not lizards
I do have to say that this time you have managed to surprise me, since I didn't believe you were that daft as to believe dinosaurs existed with mankind, and got extinct because noah couldn't fit them into his ark.
I guess the T-Rex felt gutted because of that, but hey, how did the Plesiosaurs and other marine dinosaurs get extinct? Surely they could have swam since they were aquatic creatures.
Oh yeah, they probably got too naughty and god decided to punish them for raising the water levels above his intended divine will.
You know, people like you are actually a bit of a proof against evolution. No, don't jump with glee just yet. People like you are a sure proof that apart from evolving, humans can actually de-evolve too!
Funny how if you spend a day observing animals in their natural habitat, they will either be:
a) sleeping; b) looking for a mate; c) raising their young; d) trying to catch something to eat, or trying to avoid being eaten.
Seems to me that nature is built on the fact that some animals are there to be eaten, and others to be predators, and others like us humans to be the in between omnivores.
One can put any kind of moralistic and 'fad-istic' (that includes relgious) views on the benefits of being vegetarians, but we simply have not evolved as herbivore creatures.
As for meat being 'murdered flesh', aren't plants 'murdered vegetables' too? Of course, the vegetarians don't feel the poor plant's pain
Where exactly in all that prattle you posted masquerading as articles did the author come up with a SINGLE point of evidence that fossils are not millions years old, and instead under 6000 years old, as your precious fairy tale book would have us believe?
By the way, in which point of genesis were the dinosaurs created?
Oh yeah, dinosaurs never existed, they were never on noah's ark right?
Just go take a walk in any mountain, you'll find plenty of fossils that will show you that genesis is just a legend made up by primitive people who didn't know any better.
At least they didn't have access to scientific data, while you have. That actually makes you worse off than them. Truly pitiful
Just goes to confirm just what a religious fanatic you really are.
Unable to reason, just following the herd like a blind sheep. Oh yeah, the bible says you believers are 'the flock'. I guess the bible got that right at least
It happened during a Renaissance re-enactment, together with a friend of mine we were doing a demonstration of a rapier duel using real blades.
The moves were choreographed and we both knew where the next attack would come etc, but at one point my friend should have attacked low, instead he came up with an attack to my face.
I had lowered my blade in anticipation of a low thrust so was really exposed for a face thrust. I managed to dodge aside, feeling his blade pass millimetres from my left eye.
I know it only happened in a split of a second, but I remember it as if it had lasted for minutes, seeing the point coming at me in slow motion.
Well still alive and kicking now, and still enjoying sword play
On the contrary, I am open to new ideas if they're proven. So far, from what I've read, the whole afterlife believers do so on a degree of faith, and that's where my scepticism kicks in.
Btw, no offence taken re-the close minded thing, I guess liguistic differences kicked in here. In Maltese, close minded is considered to be an insult, but I accept your explanation
Well, I've never seen this show Medium, you know, we in Malta are still a bit behind good old America in such things
As for it being fact because it's on TV, well, I'll refrain from commenting. Of course, since it's a TV show it MUST be real
You're free to think me close minded, but hey I'm not the one believing in mumbo jumbo. By the way, people of different outlooks were discussing this in a polite manner so far, how about keeping it like that eh?
Nosrtradamus' writings are pretty much vague and open to interpretation; besides that, some of them don't necessarily mean he had psychic abilities, just used common sense.
For example, he predicted the rise of a great leader who would engulf the world in war in the 20th century; hey pretty much every century has a major war, hence no prizes for guessing that one.
As for describing the place they'd never been in, it's pretty possible that they might have seen it in tv, read about it etc. In today's world with the access to communicaitons, such things are pretty much unverifiable isn't it?
We simply do not know how the brain funcions in many aspects of our day to day lives, let alone the processes that go on during a near death experience. For what we may know, the brain may just be going through a short circuit at that point, and the 'white light' be just a result of that.
The brain does function with electrical impulses after all.
Ok I'll grant you that in your line of thought you are consistent and try to put a scientific slant to your views.
However, let's consider the above as being 'true'. Doesn't this raise the question, what do all these conscious spirits do in the afterlife?
Do they keep the nature, life, likes & dislikes of what they did in life?
If so, would a lion spirit kill an antelope spirit in a never ending cycle? (just making an example out of many possiblibities)
What form would said spirit hold, would we appear/feel at the height of our health and strength, or would we be our old feeble selves? What about those who never lived up to adulthood, will they be babies/children spirits for eternity?
It's matters like these that make an afterlife not sound rational or a possibility in my eyes.
Apart from that, what would we do to spend the time? Do an eternity of thumb twiddling? Frankly, I'd rather be dead as I think I'd 'die' (pun intended) of boredom.
I'd like to make a question here as well while we're at it.
If people who believe in an afterlife TRULY believe in it, instead of just hopeful lipservice to such a belief, why are such people sorry when loved ones die, or feel fear when they are in the peril of death themselves?
If they truly believe in an afterlife, death shouldn't be an occasion for sorrow or fear, but something to look forward to.
How many spiritualists/afterlife believes really hold such a view?
