I have read both several times.

"both" what?

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Wait, what, he claims to be Christian?

she does surada claims she is a Christian.

AW dingbat----I kinda like it---noisy tenants are the worst

I think it was a teaching moment - as most of the allegorical accounts of Genesis are - more than an act of God.

 

[surada]

"the bible" ??? which scriptural writing do you call
"the bible"???

The old testament and the new testament. Didn’t you know?

 

[ding]

The Bible stories are fiction borrowed from other cultures.

Allegorical accounts of historical events are not fiction. I think you are basing that on your misunderstanding of the purpose of the embellishments.

Christians don't have to be ignorant. God gave us a brain.

What historical event? Are you talking about the earth being 6000 years old or Adam and Eve? The Jews were never in Egypt. They were just another Canaanite tribe.

You don't believe the Bible is the word of God, you don't believe Jesus was real and here so how can you believe he is the savior?

Let's see... the creation of the universe and its evolution, a great flood, the migration from Mesopotamia, the emergence of monotheism, etc.

oh Well in common parlance amongst english speaking
christians. So you exclude the Koran as a "truth book"?
or the Mahabharata? How about Mein Kampf?

No where does the Bible say the earth is only 6000 years old. And so few believe that nonsense it is pointless bringing it up.

Jesus seems to have believed that the Jews were in Egypt based on
the contents of the "truth book" you call a "bible" aka the "new
testament" He even seems to have been a "zionist"

That's nice.

I think Jesus was real. I don't believe he walked on water. The Bible is a history of the Jews... Starting with Adam and Eve, 6000 years ago.

 

[surada]

That's nice.

Well, that's what he was taught. Egypt controlled Canaan for 4 hundred years. They paid tribute to Pharaoh.. all the Canaanite tribes did

So you don't believe Jesus performed any of the 38 miracles?

 

[ding]

Given that the account stretched back to the time of Joseph it would be surprising if there were never any Jewish presence in Egypt.
