Should I add it to this list?<br /><br />http://college-ethics.blogspot.com/2011/08/gender-sexuality-and-spirituality-in.html<br /><br />I thought of you when I posted this:<br />http://jandyongenesis.blogspot.com/2012/02/evolutionists-reveal-ignorance-of.html<br /><br /><br />I have skimmed the book by Muata Ashby and his wife. It is more speculation than scholarly, but he does make some important observations. His book is trendy in that he is attempting to show a common religious antecedents to the world great religions. There is no doubt that the earliest Vedic writings show the influence of Horite religious beliefs, but Hinduism today is very far from the faith of the Horites. Ashby neglects the most important and the most easily verified connection - that between the Horite religion and Christianity. The core of Christian belief is that Jesus Christ is the incarnate fulfillment of the Horus myth and fulfillment of the Messianic (Son/Seed of God) expectation of Abraham's Horite ancestors.Alice C.

However, the range of anatomical differences between the oldest human specimens, (about 3.4 million years) and today is not as great as evolutionists imply.<br /><br />About archaic Man Genesis asserts that he was created from the beginning in the image of the Creator. About modern humans, Genesis supplies loads of important data which can be used to reconstruct a good picture of the migration of Abraham's ancestors out of Africa and the spread of their worldview. <br /><br />That said, Genesis isn't really about human origins. It is about the origins of Messianic expectation among Abraham's Nilotic and Proto-Saharan ancestors.Alice C.

But the poll doesn't ask when the WORLD was created. It asks if you believe MAN was created pretty much like is he now some thousand years ago. There are a LOT of old-earth creationists who believe Adam was a special creation or even those that believe God creates via evolution but that our "current form" is recent.Daniel Eatonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01938928361063239964noreply@blogger.com
