OldBrownsFan Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 Many people through the years have been searching for the truth, searching for reality. Jesus said I am the way, the truth (translated reality) and the life (Jn 14:6). That is what I am sticking with. The bible is full of revelation knowledge, knowledge we could not know unless God revealed it to us. It gives us the reason for the universe, the reason for the earth and the reason for man among other things. In Jesus's life he was constantly pulling the curtain back to show us there was more reality than this physical world. I would compare those who only see a physical world and denying a spiritual one to a fish in a pond believing that nothing existed outside the pond. **I was watching the news tonight and there was Elon Musk smoking some weed during an interview...just saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasAg1969 Posted September 9, 2018 Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 Well if you think about it we're just made of little electrons circling around some little quarks that somehow all came into being about 13+ billion years ago. I think I'll let God play this little experiment out to wherever it came from and/or is going. Funny thing is we are all made of second and third hand star dust in a solar system roughly 1/3 the age of the known universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

calfoxwc Posted September 9, 2018 Report Share Posted September 9, 2018 This is nonsense. The simple proof of it, is that root beer is great. Campfires are great. "simulation"... may as well go read the Kafka story about a guy who wakes up as an insect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more ridiculous than most of the stories in the Bible, Koran, Vedic texts, Buddhist texts, etc, that billions of people believe in wholeheartedly on little to no evidence.

Actually, more and more evidence is being discovered that correlates to stories in the Bible. The fiction Kafka story was simple admitted fiction.

Squirrel and rabbit season starts Oct. 7th. Oh, boy oh boy. Ohio resident landowners, spouses, and their children are not required to have a hunting license, fur taker permit, either-sex deer permit, antlerless deer permit, spring or fall turkey permit, or Ohio Wetlands Habitat Stamp when hunting or trapping on land they own.

And I can't even use a shotgun on the damn coyotes that have killed 3 of my fawns this year. County protects them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can dust them at will. Each county has power over what animals are protected any given year excluding national protected species. We do have too many deer in this county and too few predators to keep them in check, but dammit those were my new fawns on my f'n property they got. I love watching them off my back porch when they hang out near the treeline of my woods in the "outback". I have only one left but he's now faster than the older deer. Survival of the fittest is a tough law, but it still applies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
