God could really have impressed us if He had told Moses
to write: "In the beginning, God created the Big Bang."
Assuming that God knew He had created the Big Bang,
why didn't He tell Moses to write those words?

Well, consistent with that, records seem to indicate there was a big
flash of it at one point. And if that was Him, then He is also
responsible for all the stars and planets which subsequently
coalesced. At which point there began an enormous and complex organic
chemistry project which, given the amount of time He's allowed it to
work, has now provided almost an infinite variety of results,
including the inhabiting of at least (and perhaps only) one of the
planets with intelligent life.

Which planet was that?

:-) It's a good question. But there would still be intelligent life
here even if humans did not happen to inhabint the planet.

I once read a book titled, "Is There Intelligent
Life in the Universe".

The last chapter was titled, "Is There Intelligent
Life on Earth?"

You got that right. Just exercising a line of thought.
I will skip the rest of the fluff.
Just when it was getting good! We were close to hearing how the Somalian

Hi Mike,

I don't know what dots you are trying to connect, especially from a
argument that lifts its rhetoric from the CIA playbook of the late 40s
[gad, that rusty polemic of Stalin getting a free ride reeks of
Nixon's first stump speech].


After being compared with Ol' commie Joe, I figured that since we were
in the name calling stage, I might as well see how many names I could
get JB to call me. I thought you were going soft on the OM.

So I had to get things jump started.


Turning the other cheek now.....

Well, I feel strongly that if the author didn't know, then it's good
that he should ask. Some would even say that there are no stupid
questions. I don't know if I'd go that far. :-)

John Birch may have elevated Uncle Joe's stock in that comparison to
you....

How's that for going soft?

Because then he would have had to explain himself.

Have you actually read the anguish of Moses trying to keep those people
together just so they could have a future? Clearly God stimulates their
anticipation of the future but doesn't give any more detail than what is
necessary. Clearly more information is given than what they understand
until the event comes to pass. It becomes clear (although some seem to
embellish) that God intends to lead them forward with His complete timeline
knowledge.

I guess you didn't get what I said (it's not about you) now I don't know
what you are talking about.
