but thats not what i'm talking
about... i am discussing the god you claim to worship... even if you believe jesus was god on earth it doesn't matter for if you take what he had to say as law then you should take with equal fervor words and commands given from god itself... it stands as logical to do this and i am confused since
most only do what jesus said... the dude was only here for 30 years and god has been here for the whole time — he has added, taken away, and revised everything he has set previous to jesus and after his death... thru the prophets — i base my argument on the book itself, so if you have a counter argument i believe you haven't a full understanding
of the book — and that would be my overall point... belief without full understanding

of scientists hard at work trying to make the numbers fit and the theory hold weight but if you ask any
of them they can not give you the answers and the reason being... there are none, the theory doesn't work, If by the observable laws
of Physics, Matter in this Universe can not be created or destroyed, you can only change its state, i.e. solid to liquid, to gas... to energy... There is no explanation for how an entire reality full
of Matter can be created out
of nothing... Scientists know this... idiots that are
