The Earth is NOT spinning! Don't listen to those liar scientists!

[Headcrab Zombie]

i think those are supposed to mean something else

Of course, why would an all-powerful god speak to us plainly, when he could instead speak to us through ancient texts translated over and over, requiring confusing interpretations?

I have no idea about the second one

I'm not entirely sure what Christians nowadays take it to mean, but it sounds stupid. The sun doesn't "hurry back" to anywhere.

you can't feel movement on trains, plains or cars, only acceleration and deceleration. that is all.

even my science teacher tells me that.

[Kalphiter]

They wrote how they perceived something in science

This is something beautiful about the Bible

[fred da kiko]

perception is possibly the worst tool to figure out anything. people perceived the sun and explained it with big glowing men flying chariots across the sky.

[Man 2]

Modern science says
the earth
IS rotating
the bible says it is
NOT
moving

Most of the scientific
community is saying
ONE THING -- and the bible
is saying
ANOTHER THING

The two different claims are
at odds with
each other...

Kind of like good verses evil...

This was where I stopped. What an idiot.

Somewhere in the book with Jesus (mathew or something idk), Jesus explains why he (and god) speaks in parables.

christ i'll have to see if i can find that

okay here, from Mark 4:10-12;

But when he was alone, those around him with the twelve asked him about the parable.
And he said to them, "To you it has been given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God; but to those who are outside, all things come in parables, so that:

'Seeing they may not percieve,
And hearing they may not hear and not understand;
Lest they should turn,
And their sins be forgiven them.'

"

"Why do I talk in a confusing way? Here, let me explain it to you in a confusing way!"
I have no idea what the forget that was supposed to mean.
I had to google 'Mark 4:10-12 meaning' to figure anything out.
What I found was shocking and contradictory to everything that Christians believe Jesus to stand for.

Holy forget I still thought earth was flat!

You seem pretty insistent on being right about everything.

You'd make a perfect god, headcrab.

EDIT: If you have a problem with people speaking in a metaphorical dialect, then don't open up a shakespear.
