Can we use Kentucky as a nuke testing site? pretty please??

My favorite paragraph from Salon's article on this:

In the Garden of Eden in Genesis, says Ham, when everything was still perfect, animals weren't predators or prey, so the museum's designer, Patrick Marsh, is able to crowd grizzly bears, wildcats, zebras, kangaroos, an iguanodon and several other dinosaurs into the same little chunk of primeval Eden. After the fall, such a scene would result in a bloody mess.

On an only slightly more serious note: is there even any Biblical basis for that assertion? That Adam's fall created carnivore's? If so -- thank you, Eve (and the Serpent)!

I say we nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure.

I'd like to point out that Canadiastan has opened a Creationist Museum too ... in rural Alberta. Surprised? Yeah, me neither.

So Alberta's the Kentucky of Canada? I never knew that...

If it did, why was God so pleased with Abel's offering, enough to make Cain jealous leading to the first murder? It would appear God is a carnivore

November 26, 2007, hopefully, will be Christianity's final blow.

For anyone who knows what I am talking about.

hehe, I like this line:


"They've got the right to be wrong," he said. "They don't have a leg to stand on and they're hoping to evolve one."

[Berzerker]

the "fall" was Adam and Eve obtaining knowledge God didn't want them to have - the knowledge of good and evil, i.e., the ability to reason... The fig leaves are a clue to the type of knowledge that really upset God, the knowledge of procreation.

[FrostyBoy]

Just curious, you say that God did not want Adam and Eve to know GOOD and EVIL.

When Adam and Eve learned of Good, a lot of evil came to be, but what about the good?

What I mean is, if I read you correctly (I can't remember what the bible says exactly), there was no good or evil before Adam and Eve learned of it, so what was it? Just neutrality? No happiness or sadness, just a completely mundane and accepted life?

Maybe that's it though; maybe, like the knowledge of good and evil, God wanted to keep the knowledge of what a good steak tastes like all to Himself. Bastard. No wonder Lucifer rebelled.

If you take the Biblical diety at face value he has some serious, serious Freudian issues.
