No.

Creation Science remains a 'love that dare not speak its name' ... or identify itself ... if the Creationist wants to remain employable.

They're not asking you for specific employment details, just a degree type. You'd hardly be identifiable by that.

It's pure love lavished on all of us, who are totally undeserving of it ... in justice we should all pay for our sins ... but God in His mercy has done this for us ... and all we have to do is ask Him to remit our sins.
However, He will not force anybody to love Him or live with Him in Heaven when they die.
If they wish to live with the 'other guy' God will grant them their wish.
The fact that the 'other guy' and his friends may not be too nice to live with ... and his abode could do with some air-conditioning, to say the least about it, isn't God's fault.:eek:

I'm not a Christian so your rules don't apply to me, same way any rules a Hindu or Muslim should abide by don't apply to you. If you're happy to live an eternity in an abusive, inescapable relationship with a tyrant more power to you.

Ah yes, compulsory love, another bonus Christianity gives us.

Love is never compulsory ... God loves you, just like I do ... but you are free to return that love ... or not.

High-five!!:)

If your happy to make up what most Christians believe, then the only person you're kidding is yourself.

Funny how the topic always veers towards God's love whenever J C is asked to provide evidence.

Can I assure you that I won't be going to Hell ... but instead I am Heaven-bound, to live in eternal bliss with the almighty, loving and merciful God who Created us.

Careful now!

Could be ... so I'm not taking the risk.
... and you wouldn't do it, if you were a Creationist, either.

It's like arguing with a 5 year old. The slightest awkward question is either ignored or the subject changed. It really is like a child sticking their fingers in their ears and shouting lalalala.

Degree is no doubt from a bible belt college and in creation science, hence he won't divulge as he would be ridiculed.

Then again I could be wrong,he may have a bona fide degree. It could be hiding with his mensa credentials!

I'm a Fallen creature made new by the Saving power of Jesus Christ.

Are you not Heaven-bound yourself catallus?

God's not a tyrant? He very much is. Love me or I'll burn you for eternity.

Poster JC, you say you don't believe in evolution because there is no evidence.

So what evidence have you for creationism ?

But Jesus sacrificed nothing for you. He came back to life and went back to dad/himself. Where's the sacrifice? The self loathing required for Christianity is something I can't fathom.

If you were a scientist in this area you would have to spend significant amounts of your time reading these journals. So by a process of elimination assume that you are not a biologist?

Can you show me an example of such 'bowing and scraping' in one of the papers from these journals?

No.

I doubt that. I've had creationists in my various work places. Nobody ever lost their job because of it and if they did that would be illegal.

So you're probably not a biologist? Did you train in life sciences? Or perhaps the social or physical sciences? Revealing this will reveal nothing about your identity. It will however help you back up your claims about being a scientist, a statement which nobody believes.

If you have time and fancy a laugh read through some of his posts, there's no evidence, or none that he'll give. I'd say the only degree he has is one in Bolloxology.

Actually it's love one another or you burn for eternity. Loving God is not enough.
Loving your neighbour while sincerly not believing in God probably is.
But by all means carry on pretending what Christians believe.

That wouldn't be a conventional degree from a conventional university ... which all Creation Scientists, in good standing, like me, possess.

I don't want to know who you are or what your academic credentials are ... why do you want to know mine?

Because you're the one claiming to be a scientist?

I rest my case, I don't want love or want to be commanded to love someone or something, thats the definition of a totalitarian existence.

You are welcome to love your "God", but keep it to yourself and away from me, or anyone for that matter.

You think you can get into heaven without believing in God? All the Atheists are sorted so. I can't imagine any church would profess not believing in God is a sure path to heaven. I think it's yourself who's a bit confused about Christianity there.

God doesn't burn anybody ... the Devil and his angels provide this particular service, for those who ask for it.
... it's something like eternal self-flagellation for masochists.

... something like the 'sex-slave' who craves humiliation by a dominatrix ... only eternal and much more severe.:eek:

Frank Bullitt

It's funny there was no mention of Hell in the old testament, the good man him self Jesus is the first to mention it, don't love me and you'll burn in hell fire.

Punishment of the dead, yet another star in the book for Christianity.

But you don't really ask for it do you, God's love is built on an ultimatum. Can you not accept Gods love and not go to Hell? Live in the prescence of a tyrant or go where you'll be burned alive for all time. Unless you get to go off with one of the other gods after you die. There are thousands after all.

No one said it was a sure path, again pretending what others say and believe is not going to get you anywhere.

You're talking to people who are afraid to even speak of heaven, let alone the Love of God.

Surely there are none so blind as those who will not see.

I'm fairly sure there are none so blind as the blind, in fairness.
