FACT: Sanitary Practices, Disease Prevention and Public Health WOUND, SKIN and DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS Sanitation practices and disease prevention were introduced some 3,500 years ago, as stated in the Bible! Excerpt from…The First Book of Public Hygiene: http://www.answersingenesis.org/creation/v26/i1/hygiene.asp Leviticus 15 (NIV) Discharges Causing Uncleanness 1 The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, 2 “Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘When any man has an unusual bodily discharge, such a discharge is unclean. 3 Whether it continues flowing from his body or is blocked, it will make him unclean. This is how his discharge will bring about uncleanness: 4 “‘Any bed the man with a discharge lies on will be unclean, and anything he sits on will be unclean. 5 Anyone who touches his bed must wash their clothes and bathe with water, and they will be unclean till evening. 6 Whoever sits on anything that the man with a discharge sat on must wash their clothes and bathe with water, and they will be unclean till evening. 7 “‘Whoever touches the man who has a discharge must wash their clothes and bathe with water, and they will be unclean till evening. 8 “‘If the man with the discharge spits on anyone who is clean, they must wash their clothes and bathe with water, and they will be unclean till evening. 9 “‘Everything the man sits on when riding will be unclean, 10 and whoever touches any of the things that were under him will be unclean till evening; whoever picks up those things must wash their clothes and bathe with water, and they will be unclean till evening. 11 “‘Anyone the man with a discharge touches without rinsing his hands with water must wash their clothes and bathe with water, and they will be unclean till evening. 12 “‘A clay pot that the man touches must be broken, and any wooden article is to be rinsed with water. 13 “‘When a man is cleansed from his discharge, he is to count off seven days for his ceremonial cleansing; he must wash his clothes and bathe himself with fresh water, and he will be clean. 14 On the eighth day he must take two doves or two young pigeons and come before the LORD to the entrance to the tent of meeting and give them to the priest. 15 The priest is to sacrifice them, the one for a sin offering[a] and the other for a burnt offering. In this way he will make atonement before the LORD for the man because of his discharge. 16 “‘When a man has an emission of semen, he must bathe his whole body with water, and he will be unclean till evening. 17 Any clothing or leather that has semen on it must be washed with water, and it will be unclean till evening. 18 When a man has sexual relations with a woman and there is an emission of semen, both of them must bathe with water, and they will be unclean till evening. 19 “‘When a woman has her regular flow of blood, the impurity of her monthly period will last seven days, and anyone who touches her will be unclean till evening. 20 “‘Anything she lies on during her period will be unclean, and anything she sits on will be unclean. 21 Anyone who touches her bed will be unclean; they must wash their clothes and bathe with water, and they will be unclean till evening. 22 Anyone who touches anything she sits on will be unclean; they must wash their clothes and bathe with water, and they will be unclean till evening. 23 Whether it is the bed or anything she was sitting on, when anyone touches it, they will be unclean till evening. 24 “‘If a man has sexual relations with her and her monthly flow touches him, he will be unclean for seven days; any bed he lies on will be unclean. 25 “‘When a woman has a discharge of blood for many days at a time other than her monthly period or has a discharge that continues beyond her period, she will be unclean as long as she has the discharge, just as in the days of her period. 26 Any bed she lies on while her discharge continues will be unclean, as is her bed during her monthly period, and anything she sits on will be unclean, as during her period. 27 Anyone who touches them will be unclean; they must wash their clothes and bathe with water, and they will be unclean till evening. 28 “‘When she is cleansed from her discharge, she must count off seven days, and after that she will be ceremonially clean. 29 On the eighth day she must take two doves or two young pigeons and bring them to the priest at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 30 The priest is to sacrifice one for a sin offering and the other for a burnt offering. In this way he will make atonement for her before the LORD for the uncleanness of her discharge. 31 “‘You must keep the Israelites separate from things that make them unclean, so they will not die in their uncleanness for defiling my dwelling place, which is among them.’” 32 These are the regulations for a man with a discharge, for anyone made unclean by an emission of semen, 33 for a woman in her monthly period, for a man or a woman with a discharge, and for a man who has sexual relations with a woman who is ceremonially unclean.

Then that means, methodological naturalism cannot consistently give a definitive - and/or reliable - conclusion.

We don't know the exact details! Just like a plant-eating dinosaur (stegosaurus?) was described in the Bible.... That reminds me, in the theory of evolution....which came first, the male or the female? Anyway, the passage for the ship's measurements, and the sea currents ended up scientifically true! You can say that those are just coincidental....however, when you've got those two, plus all the other listed facts to contend with (plus some more that are not listed yet)- not to mention the accuracy of the word stretching/stretches/stretch used in the Bible.....it's definitely no longer coincidental! We say "expansion of the universe," or the universe is "expanding." We got used to the word "expanding" or "expansion." So this statement from the astronomy site was a real surprise to me too when the scientist clarified that the actual description for the universe is not exactly "expanding." That the right description for it is that it is stretching! You guys will keep ignoring that? The least I expect from you - if you are truly searching for truth - is that you'd acknowledge, at the very least, that the Bible is worth looking into.

These are soldiers who not only have the go signal to shoot-to-kill.....but they're also humans nursing perhaps deep rage over the killings of hundreds in 9/11 and other attacks in the world. Well I do hope (for Bin Laden's sake) that he's truly dead. I'm not a theory conspiracy advocate.....but since we didn't see the body....I can't help but wonder if he's not being held somewhere alive.....and getting tortured.

Yes. I don't think rejoicing and celebrating his death is right.

Vaguely similar??? The description of the water cycle....the mountains under the sea....the accurate use of the word STRETCH in regards to the heavens on creation (which by the looks of it modern science had "plagiarized"!)....vaguely similar? Moses (and the others) understood some science facts more than you do! And you complain about large fonts! Perhaps for your benefit, I should also enlarge my Bible passage references? And obviously you're not reading at all! Or you don't understand what you read. Or worse, you perfectly understand but choose to ignore the obvious anyway. So really, what's the point of addressing you? You're like the other guy in the other thread....there is no discussion with you. You've got major problems with reading....comprehension....and, getting on the right pages. Large fonts and smiley faces annoy you? Too bad. The world doesn't revolve around you. Lots of options for you to do. Avoid my threads. Squint your eyes. Take a valium. ...just like I'm tempted to do dealing with you. But I'll pass on medication. I'll just try to ignore you. UNLESS you deal , head-on, with the issues listed here! If you've got anything on them, be specific. Enough hot air! Enough senseless blabberings! Put that money, or shall I say, that hot air, where your mouth is! So let me just wish you a nice day, and a stress-free continuous reading with your cool tinted glasses.

You are committing the exact flaw that science hopes to avoid and skepticism constantly tries to bring people's attention to. You had the nerve to call Richard Dawkins a "pseudoscientist" when you are, by definition, doing pseudoscience here. You don't start with your conclusion first "the Bible is true" or "the Bible predicts scientific discoveries" and gather your evidence to prove it.What real science does is collect evidence and that points to the conclusions and speaks for itself. Huh! What are you on about now? Do you have any problems with gravity? Shape of the earth? Atoms? Incalculable numbers of stars? Existence of sea currents? Mountains and trenches under the sea? Etc..,? Will you read the facts you quoted and get your head straight! Most of the facts posted started with a clear conclusion - discovered/concluded by SCIENCE! I don't know whether to laugh or cry.....it's like trying to make eye-contact with a head that keeps bobbing up and down and all around. Bye-bye. Really.

True. Especially when he is bent on killing more innocents! We should love our neighbors as much as we love ourselves. If you see your neighbors getting massacred, wouldn't you fight for their lives?

There is nothing in Christianity that denies the necessity of war in some cases either. Only those who don't understand the doctrine/Bible make the mistake of assuming Christians cannot go to war! http://www.gotquestions.org/war-Bible.html

DISPLAYING FACT in bold, large type is: DISPLAYING WITH THE UTMOST... .... CONFIDENCE!

FACT: Expression - "CURVATURE OF SPACE," still related to STRETCHING UNIVERSE Actually, I excluded 3 passages from the Bible when I posted the EXPANDING UNIVERSE. Those three excluded Biblical passages did not use the descriptive word "stretches/stretched." It was puzzling. I thought, what does it mean? However this article gave it some meaning: http://www.science27.com/english/introduction1.html http://curious.astro.cornell.edu/question.php?number=274 KEYWORD: CURVE; Curvature. It makes sense that yes, this is also relevant to the Biblical description of creation. He bowed the heavens also, and came down: and darkness [was] under his feet. Psalms 18:9 Bow thy heavens, O LORD, and come down: touch the mountains, and they shall smoke. Psalms 144:5 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness [was] under his feet. 2 Samuel 22:10

A lot of hot air from the Evolution Flag-bearers Committee! Re-hashing the same-old same-old....thrashing about like their baffled evolution scientists who refuse to venture out of their dark and teeny-weeny box, breathing the the same old musty air! There's whole vast space out of that box, guys....fresh air! C'mon out. Nothing to be afraid of. Open your mind! Redundant, regurgitated silly flimsy, uncoordinated, irrational arguments require standard responses: FACT: Nothing holds up Earth. It is affected by gravity. FACT: The earth is round. FACT: There is an incalculable number of stars. FACT: Mountains and trenches in the deep blue sea. FACT: Invisible atoms, the building blocks FACT: Noahs Ark and Ship Building FACT: Many of the great scientists of the past who founded and developed the key disciplines of science were creationists! FACT: A finished creation. FACT: The universe is deteriorating FACT: The Universe Must Have Had a Beginning FACT:: Existence of ocean currents FACT: SCIENCE REMAINS BAFFLED! FACT: EXPANDING UNIVERSE FACT: Hydrological Cycle or Water Cycle FACT: PROPHECIES HAVE COME TRUE! FACT: EXPANDING UNIVERSE: Science uses the word, "STRETCHING/STRETCHES/STRETCHED! PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS! Address these issues.

Quit thrashing about like a fish out of water. FACT: Nothing holds up Earth. It is affected by gravity. FACT: The earth is round. FACT: There is an incalculable number of stars. FACT: Mountains and trenches in the deep blue sea. FACT: Invisible atoms, the building blocks FACT: Noah’s Ark and Ship Building FACT: “Many of the great scientists of the past who founded and developed the key disciplines of science were creationists!” FACT: A finished creation. FACT: The universe is deteriorating FACT: The Universe Must Have Had a Beginning FACT:: Existence of ocean currents FACT: SCIENCE REMAINS BAFFLED! FACT: EXPANDING UNIVERSE FACT: Hydrological Cycle or Water Cycle FACT: PROPHECIES HAVE COME TRUE! FACT: EXPANDING UNIVERSE: Science uses the word, "STRETCHING/STRETCHES/STRETCHED!” PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS! Address these issues!

So typical. Wasting time knocking on the wrong door! Missing the right one! Having problems aiming for the bull's eye! Coordination gone awry! What, you evolutionists evolved with this faulty mechanism? Just look at most of the responses from you guys! What happened??? I thought evolution is supposed to be for progression - not regression? Of course you realize that you guys only provide the empirical evidence that supports one of the facts from the Bible - earth is deteriorating. Everything is wearing down - including aiming for the bull's eye!! Looks like that kind of deterioration starts with evolutionists! Kidding aside, old earth....new earth....in my view, who cares how old the earth is! God is not saying we should believe the earth is 6000 years old. God is saying we should believe He created everything! And science continues to prove it to be true! Intelligent Design is the only valid theory - backed by empirical evidence - than all the flopsy-flipsy theories evolutionist scientists come up with!

The Bible said only God knows when the time will come, and when it does it "will come like a thief in the night." So I don't think there will be any advance warning at all!

What made you say that? When did I ever say that physics and chemistry are devil's works?

What? What Saturday?

Science proved archeologically the mundane facts hidden in the Illiad but science is now proving the super-mundane truths of God's creation! In other words, in one case science is proving earthly truths, while in the other science is showing the truth of God's Word.

Never mind trying to change the channel. Deal with the facts posted here!

Just a recap folks of all the Bible statements posted so far - proven by science to be true! Count 'em! (There are more to come btw!) FACT: Nothing holds up Earth. It is affected by gravity. FACT: The earth is round. FACT: There is an incalculable number of stars. FACT: Mountains and trenches in the deep blue sea. FACT: Invisible atoms, the building blocks FACT: Noah’s Ark and Ship Building FACT: “Many of the great scientists of the past who founded and developed the key disciplines of science were creationists!” FACT: A finished creation. FACT: The universe is deteriorating FACT: The Universe Must Have Had a Beginning FACT:: Existence of ocean currents FACT: SCIENCE REMAINS BAFFLED! FACT: EXPANDING UNIVERSE FACT: Hydrological Cycle or Water Cycle FACT: PROPHECIES HAVE COME TRUE! FACT: EXPANDING UNIVERSE: Science uses the word, "STRETCHING/STRETCHES/STRETCHED!” So those of you who keeps saying it isn't true, PUT YOUR MONEY WHERE YOUR MOUTH IS! Debunk these listed facts!

We're back to another theory!

Oh boy, with all that big and loooong, winding talk you finish by blowing yourself up! If there is nothing beyond, how can the faithful think, or come to realize anything at all???? Actually you agree with the Bible! For non-believers (such as yourself), dead is dead! So, yeah....you won't see the big party after! You won't know the thoughts or see the expressions on the faces of the faithful!

The universe is expressed in terms of time, space, matter, and energy. Genesis chapter one reads: “In the beginning (time) God created the heavens (space) and the earth (matter). Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. Then God said, “Let there be light (energy).” The first three verses of Genesis accurately states all known aspects of creation. No other creation account agrees with the observable evidence.

What I've posted speak for themselves. Instead of just saying "no it's not true," why don't you deb-bunk what I've posted with your own evidence!

I guess this means you can't back up your own so-called factual claim. You can't cite not even one single ancient book similar to the Bible that's been proven by science!
