Could Christians please respond; Is there a penalty for rejecting Jesus?

    Geological issues can be explained by a global, catastrophic Flood (Noahic). What you guys fail to realize is that creation was originally 'very good' and that it is now fallen, groaning, waiting for a supernatural New Heavens and Earth in the future.

    What utter nonsense. How exactly did the naked lady eating the fruit cause some drastic change in geology and what was it like previously?

    Before the Fall, creation was 'very good'. After the Fall, we know there were changes and even more after the global Flood. The details are not fully revealed, but this aint paradise anymore. Some suggest there was a protective water canopy above the earth. Now we have harmful rays from the sun, etc. Genetic changes, etc. were also introduced over time.

    If people reject Jesus that is your free will choice. No one is going to force anyone to accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, but there is only one outcome for those who reject him.

    Why don't you have a go at answering the actual question rahter than the one you wish I had asked?

    Earthquakes are tsunamis are caused by the constant growth of tectonic plates. As they move away from the boundary they push the distant edges of the plates against one another. Sometimes one plate will push underneath another forcing it up - see mount Everest for the results of this. Other plates slide against each other. The magma that spews out at the plate boundary leaves a constant pattern from which we can read off millenniums of time.

    When plates move against one another massive pressures build up. Eventually the plates will shift suddenly causing an earthquake. If this happens under the ocean it may cause a tsunami.

    This is how the earth is and has always been. It has nothing to do with weather or climate or pollution or solar winds or cosmic rays or water canopies or global floods or genetics anything else, its how - according to you - the earth was made. God made a dangerous earth for humans - why?

    Stop evading the question its getting embarassing.

    If you don't have any evidence for your crazy fantasy don't resort to silly threats. We have all had enough of that

    The conditions for life on earth also create the possibility of lightning, bad weather, etc. The issue is complex, not simplistic. At the end of the day, all that matters is that we are ready to meet our Maker. The rain will fall on the righteous and evil. Earthquakes are not going to be the issue on judgment day.

    I specifically said I was not asking you about bad weather. You are either incapable of following a very simple point or you are dishonest. I suspect the latter.

    Don't those things also create the means for new and different kinds of life, Cofty? Perhaps because something adapts into something new or a new/diverse earth formation is created and developed (who knows how either of those might benefit the planet in the future?)?

    We have a very limited view of the past, present, and future. So just because we might not see the benefit of something, or the long-term affects, this doesn't mean there isn't a rhyme and reason behind and to them.

    @godrulz: so, in less than 6,000 years, life, and the rest of Earth have changed dramatically?

    SUPER-EVOLUTION!!!
