  Is there any humor in the bible?

  by Normalfulla in

  1. social
  2. humour

  humor plays a big part in a lot of humanity and we all like a good laugh but as far as i'm aware god's supposed word has no actual humor ,of course apart from being a joke itself ,why wasn't there a passage or something like "jesus farted and giggles broke out among them " or something, is anyone aware of any notations of humor ?

  all to.serious really.

  It seems the bible is against humor. Look at the following passages.

  Ecclesiastes 2:2 I said of laughter, “It is mad,” and of pleasure, “What use is it?”

  Ephesians 5:

  Let there be no filthiness nor foolish talk nor crude joking, which are out of place, but instead let there be thanksgiving

  Evolution is a Fact #31 - Ten Questions for Creationists

  by cofty in

  i thought this would be a good time to pose some questions based on the series so far.. if creationism is true these should be easy.

  answers that don't involve copy-paste would be really interesting to read.. ... .

  1. since some proteins can be assembled in more ways than there are atoms in the universe why do the sequences of amino acids and bases vary between species in exactly the way evolution predicts?

  Hooberus please post a citation from a peer reviewed scientific publication to support your position on evolution. Please note that creationist or religious publications are not accepted by the scientific community.

  If you can find one i will indeed possibly change my outlook.

  Don't take my word for it . Read the citations everyone has provided for you. I want you to think for yourself.

  Hooberus

  You refuse to see that your experts conclusions are flawed . What if I showed you that even your so called experts admitted that they where incorrect with regards radiometric dating? Would that be enough to persuade you?

  A small group of YECs with legitimate Ph.D.s (including D. Russell Humphreys and John R. Baumgardner) have formed the RATE (Radioisotopes and the Age of The Earth) committee to attack the validity of radiometric dating. Rather than embracing the embarrassing distortions and nonsensical accusations of Woodmorappe or John and Henry Morris, Humphreys and Baumgardner have finally realized that geology and geochemistry are not going to give them the answers that they want. In an Answers in Genesis (AiG) article Carl Wieland had this to say:

  When physicist Dr Russell Humphreys was still at Sandia National Laboratories (he now works full-time for ICR), he and Dr John Baumgardner (still with Los Alamos National Laboratory) were both convinced that they knew the direction in which to look for the definitive answer to the radiometric dating puzzle. [new paragraph] Others had tried—and for some, the search went on for a while in the early RATE days—to find the answer in geological processes. But Drs Humphreys and Baumgardner realized that there were too many independent lines of evidence (the variety of elements used in "standard" radioisotope dating, mature uranium radiohalos, fission track dating and more) that indicated that huge amounts of radioactive decay had actually taken place. It would be hard to imagine that geologic processes could explain all these. Rather, there was likely to be a single, unifying answer that concerned the nuclear decay processes themselves.

  Btw the above quote was from a creationist site called Old Earth Ministries

  Hooberus i was unclear indeed the author was

  Tas Walker . However he also tries to discredit radiometric dating see here

  http://thecreationclub.com/the-fatal-flaw-with-radioactive-dating-methods-tas-walker/

  So now we have discredited both your experts

  What if I told you that your expert specifically attempts to refute all forms of radiometric dating. Would you be suprised ? I told Cofty I Would Be Laying A trap for you!.

  Here is Part 1

  http://www.icr.org/article/117/

  You See Baumgardner indeed attempts to refute all forms of radiometric Dating. By his own words he has demonstrated that he is in disagreement with accepted science

  a form of radiometric dating—called Radiocarbon dating—can date wood, cloth, skeletons, and other organic material.

  Can't you read? What do you think radiometric dating is?

  You still have not addressed the issue of scientific peer review
