You know down this way in KY they are gonna built an ark, don't you?

It's hours away from where I am.

The Bible mentions unicorn 6 times and unicorn 3.

Yes, I would like to see the Creation Museum both now and after the ark project is completed. I was fascinated to hear that some Amish want to be in on that. They built either the largest, or one of the largest, wooden buildings in the world — without modern power tools, of course. It's sturdy, impressive and still standing.

The unicorn of the Bible has very little to do with the creatures you see on fantasy art posters. The word translated "unicorn" in the KJV is a word for wild ox. More on that here. Several times, words have less than precise meanings (like "father-in-law" in my article in "A Soldier for Jesus").

Ah yes, I had forgot which specific animal it was supposed to be...but I remember that.

Yes, the Amish are super cool to me!
And it is a wonderful thing, as it will make it more authentic, don't you think?

We have lots of Mennonites down this way. I've often bought my grains from them, since they can get the 50# sacks, etc. But they cheat- they are electric these days and I have a couple that I talk with from time to time online that have big blogs :-)

But -love those Amish...and their roll butter! Yummmy!

Bravado Incarnate

Warning: If you click the links, you will be subjected to strong profanity. Buon giorno. Why is it that atheists cry, "Victory is mine!" like Stewie Griffin, even when they humiliate themselves? Some in my acquaintance could slam their hand in a car door and still claim that they won a debate with the car. One of the most obstreperous atheists (who does not believe in free speech link disabled ) that I have ever encountered took a challenge (for some reason, I get all the credit, but others challenged him as well) to call Matt Slick's radio show, Faith and Reason (now renamed to " Matt Slick Live ". He was angry that the "kiddie pool" at the "Please Convince Me" Weblog was not challenging enough. Surprisingly, he did not scream or use profanity, something that I fully expected him to do. The show was entertaining and interesting, to say the least. Unfortunately, he was typical of Internet atheists: Rude Arrogant Prideful

Where Does It Stop?

I was going to give these topics a rest, but something came up. On a previous post, Zach made a comment, and I am excerpting it here. His first sentence is an answer to a question I had asked him. Hope you're not embarrassed, but I want to give you a more complete response than the comments section would allow: My lack of belief in the supernatural is pretty much complete - I have never seen any reason to attribute a supernatural cause to phenomena. I suppose I rule out supernatural explanations because once you let one in, where do you stop? I look at an event I do not understand and go immediately to natural causes. Even if I can't figure it out, I still would assume it had a natural explanation. I'm worried that if someone started attributing causes to supernatural events, they would skip over the whole 'natural cause' thing and go straight for the supernatural, because technically everything is potentially explainable by an omnipotent being, no?

The Amazing Super Powers of the Mighty Atheist™

Image
by Cowboy Bob Sorensen Years ago, I wrote "atheist" on Twitter, and one cautioned me about using that word because I risked "calling down the thunder". We know that they can be ornery cusses even on their good days, but I was unaware of the intellectual prowess and wisdom of The Mighty Atheist™, dwarfing that of a mere theist. What I had yet to learn, however, is that they also have super powers that are even magical at times. Now I know better. Christians and creationists, I hope you heed this warning! Graphic modified from  Clker clipart As with other super powers, those of The Mighty Atheist™ are difficult to categorize. Not all atheists and evolutionists have the same powers to the same degree, and there is no special school for gifted atheists under a professor so they can develop their abilities. Like logical fallacies, powers often blend and overlap. Let's saddle up and ride over yonder to Deception Pass where the atheists, atheopaths, anti-crea
