Since the thread is already sort of hijacked from what the original poster asked, I will seriously ask, what are "the weightier matters of Jesus' teachings"? You’re not “seriously” asking anything Ringman. You’re just displaying more of the disingenuous behaviors and tactics that you have become known for here. Pharisees still exist today. You’re one of em’. Your legalistic attitudes clearly take precedence even over the Gospel itself.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Jesus was there in the Beginning. "God in three Persons". Yea right. Try to explain that in a way that actually makes sense.

You have it backwards about who is accepting pseudoscientific information. That's why every year Ph.D scientists become creationists instead of the other way around. For years I have been asking for any Ph.D. creationists you know who have switched and none have been found.
Not true. I've given you one and you refuse to address it. Please stop with your dishonestly: Dr. Darrel Ray

You have any idea why evolutionists don't crow about the chemicals in the ocean? According to about any theory of evolution the earth and the ocean is millions or billions of years old. For decades the amount of chemicals entering the ocean have been measured. It takes no more than a million years or so and even less in some to reach the level the ocean has. Explain that. While you're at it maybe you would explain why there is debris close to the sun, which should be clear out past Saturn if the solar system is billions of years old.
Don't BS me, Ringman, my education includes physics. Chemicals in the ocean combine with other chemicals and precipitate out. Ever hear of limestone? There is less debris close to the sun than (a) outside of Mars's orbit and (b) outside of Neptune's. What are you trying to prove and who is the quackdoodle you are genuflecting to this time?
Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.

...what are "the weightier matters of Jesus' teachings"? If you need me to explain the things that Jesus prioritized over legalism, then you have no business discussing His teachings with anybody at all. Ever.

Ever heard of an evaporite deposit? How about a salt dome?
PS, tossing out something about "chemicals in the ocean" and then refusing to say which chemicals you're talking about is telling to say the least.
Ringman, do you know where the gypsum in your sheetrock comes from? How about the minerals in coral reefs or sea shells? Or the minerals that make up all the sand on the beaches in the Bahamas and the rocks underneath, or the limestone in the Shenandoah Valley? Or the limestone that underlies most of Florida? Please tell me the naturalistic system that produced and laid down these geological entities. If you need me to explain evaporation, precipitation of minerals out of solution, deposition of evaporite deposits, and the biological origin of carbonate rocks you have no business talking about "chemicals in the ocean." Give me a break! You don't like the answer to the lack of chemicals in the ocean so you do what usually happens. Go on the attack. Good job.

Oh, that's right. You never finished high school. What subject caused you to fail out? Was it critical thinking?

In other words you don't know. laffin’ You’re a reservoir of fraud, deceit, disingenuousness, and dishonesty...and it’s been pointed out by so many here...by other believers, non-believers, and doubters alike.

Ringman and Jaguartx: Please go get a high school education before asking foolish questions.
You remind me of the New Guinea stone age natives during WWII. The Americans built bases and runways for cargo planes to land. No matter how many times it was explained to the natives, they couldn't understand what was happening. They built their own long rickety stick enclosures to trap the "big birds" that disgorged all the goodies. How do you explain aerodynamics to ignorant people?
It would help if you would read something on the subject that didn't come from the Billy Bob Bubba Bible School for Bucktooths, i.e. the Creation Science Institute.
Rigid dogmatic people like you are the reason that 48% of millennials now answer "none" when asked about their religious beliefs.

Young Earth Creationism is no better than Flat Earth Cosmology. That either of these are still being believed to be true doesn't say much for public education. There must be a gap somewhere.

Starman.....
Nah, you know what you posted and why..
Of course I know what I posted and why But you are conveniently imaginining what suits you as to what and why I posted it. Christians like you are no different to blacks, jews and gays , who conveniently imagine hate and victimization in anything they don't like being said about them... what's hurts them the most is when the truth is told. Wabi has made no response to my post , but you keep following me around prosecuting a case for him...weird, .. you come across as a christian carrying a grudge for the christian cause. .. You cannot defend yourself on the substance of the issue...
LOL.. Theres no need for me to defend against your vivid imagination based accusation. Prove your accusation in a rational constructive mature adult way or do yourself a favor and STFU. .... so you try to change the dispute by diverting to some minor issue.... in this case, you try to divert by focus on the word "hate"...
You brought up John 15:18 and his focused mention of 'hate' , Now that I ask you to prove such hate you call it a distraction / minor issue.? . Do you actually have all your rational mind congnitive faculties.. .??? .. Seems to be a commonly used by you when you are backed into a corner and can't find a way out.
There is no need to look for a way out when the trap is only in your own mind. I know it's a tough one for christians but Make believe is not reality - so Get a Grip.

You're just too ignorant to know it.

The modern Flat Earth movement is driven by the same forces as YEC, literalist interpretations of The Bible. I think that when genesis was written, it was meant to be taken literally. That this is how the world is and how it came to be. They had no idea about the true size, scale and scope of the world and the Universe.
