Well that explains your ignorance of the Bible by claiming folks such as Swaggart and Baker to be authors of the Bible.

Low comprehension skills is a sign of extreme and dangerous biblical education. I need to get god's phone number. Since Steve Jobs died and went up there, I am sure the technology has improved and he introduced the folks "up" there to wireless communication.

How can it be that when it comes to the cosmos it stops searching?

In the 2011 crisis in Greece, it was the Church which provided food for free to the homeless, not science.

When did the search stop? Are you the only person they told?

The church takes exponentially more than it has or ever will give. Your comparison is nonsense. The church is an organization that takes and returns a little, ensuring the little it returns is well advertised. Science is not an organization that takes under threat. What is it supposed to give?

I think my idrine Keith ignoring me again. Sigh.

I just thought of sharing this on Political 

Questions

How old is the earth according to the bible?

What does the bible says about the dinosaur and other extinct animals?

Did the bible ever mention where Adam and Eve went after death, did they go to heaven?

Why does every image or Jesus portray him as a white man?

Science is proving many things.

Because he is from that era when it was only black and white. Keith would know since he found him in a mud water trench.

Jesus was a Jew. His religion was Judaism. He was a Rabbi, a teacher of Judaism.  His color would have been more Olive than black or white. He spent 12 years in India studying under various Hindu Monks. He later died in Kashmir.

Questions

How old is the earth according to the bible?

According to the Bible, the age of the Earth is not explicitly mentioned. However, some people have attempted to calculate the age of the Earth based on genealogies and chronologies provided in the Bible.

Ussher's chronology places the creation of the Earth at the nightfall preceding October 23, 4004 BC, according to the Gregorian calendar. It's important to note that these calculations are not universally accepted, and many religious scholars and believers interpret the Bible differently. Additionally, scientific evidence from fields like geology, paleontology, and astronomy overwhelmingly supports an Earth that is much older than the timeline proposed by Ussher and similar calculations.

What does the bible says about the dinosaur and other extinct animals?

The Bible does not specifically mention dinosaurs or other extinct animals in a direct and explicit manner. The Bible primarily focuses on the relationship between God and humanity, providing moral and spiritual guidance rather than serving as a comprehensive scientific or historical document.

However, some people interpret certain passages in the Bible, such as descriptions of large and powerful creatures, as potential references to dinosaurs. For example, the Book of Job in the Old Testament describes a creature called Behemoth, which some suggest might be a dinosaur. Nevertheless, interpretations of these passages can vary, and not all scholars or religious individuals agree on such identifications.

It's important to approach the Bible with an understanding of its literary and cultural context. The primary purpose of the Bible is spiritual and moral guidance, and it may not necessarily address scientific topics in a detailed or systematic manner.

Did the bible ever mention where Adam and Eve went after death, did they go to heaven?

The Bible does not provide explicit details about the afterlife of Adam and Eve. The Old Testament, which includes the story of Adam and Eve, generally has limited information about the afterlife.

Why does every image or Jesus portray him as a white man?

The portrayal of Jesus as a white man in many Western depictions is largely a result of historical and cultural factors. During the Renaissance period in Europe (14th to 17th centuries), artists often depicted religious figures in a way that was relatable to their own cultural context. Many of the influential artists of that time were based in Europe, and they tended to portray biblical figures, including Jesus, in a manner that reflected the prevailing cultural norms.

Moreover, European colonialism and the spread of Christianity to various parts of the world also contributed to the image of a white Jesus.

It's important to note that historical evidence suggests that Jesus, as a historical figure, would likely have had Middle Eastern features, given the geographic and cultural context of his time. However, artistic representations have often been influenced by the cultural and ethnic backgrounds of the artists and the societies in which they lived.
