Saint Augustine (A.D. 354-430) in his work The Literal Meaning of Genesis (De Genesi ad litteram libri duodecim) provided excellent advice for all Christians who are faced with the task of interpreting Scripture in the light of scientific knowledge. This translation is by J. H. Taylor in Ancient Christian Writers, Newman Press, 1982, volume 41.

Usually, even a non-Christian knows something about the earth, the heavens, and the other elements of this world, about the motion and orbit of the stars and even their size and relative positions, about the predictable eclipses of the sun and moon, the cycles of the years and the seasons, about the kinds of animals, shrubs, stones, and so forth, and this knowledge he hold to as being certain from reason and experience. Now, it is a disgraceful and dangerous thing for an infidel to hear a Christian, presumably giving the meaning of Holy Scripture, talking nonsense on these topics; and we should take all means to prevent such an embarrassing situation, in which people show up vast ignorance in a Christian and laugh it to scorn. The shame is not so much that an ignorant individual is derided, but that people outside the household of faith think our sacred writers held such opinions, and, to the great loss of those for whose salvation we toil, the writers of our Scripture are criticized and rejected as unlearned men.

If they find a Christian mistaken in a field which they themselves know well and hear him maintaining his foolish opinions about our books, how are they going to believe those books in matters concerning the resurrection of the dead, the hope of eternal life, and the kingdom of heaven, when they think their pages are full of falsehoods and on facts which they themselves have learnt from experience and the light of reason? Reckless and incompetent expounders of Holy Scripture bring untold trouble and sorrow on their wiser brethren when they are caught in one of their mischievous false opinions and are taken to task by those who are not bound by the authority of our sacred books. For then, to defend their utterly foolish and obviously untrue statements, they will try to call upon Holy Scripture for proof and even recite from memory many passages which they think support their position, although they understand neither what they say nor the things about which they make assertion.

In City of God, Augustine rejected both the immortality of the human race proposed by pagans, and contemporary ideas of ages (such as those of certain Greeks and Egyptians) that differed from the Church's sacred writings.[81] In The Literal Interpretation of Genesis, Augustine took the view that everything in the universe was created simultaneously by God, and not in seven calendar days like a literal account of Genesis would require. He argued that the six-day structure of creation presented in the book of Genesis represents a logical framework, rather than the passage of time in a physical way – it would bear a spiritual, rather than physical, meaning, which is no less literal. One reason for this interpretation is the passage in Sirach 18:1, creavit omnia simul ("He created all things at once"), which Augustine took as proof that the days of Genesis 1 had to be taken non-literally.[82] Augustine also does not envision original sin as causing structural changes in the universe, and even suggests that the bodies of Adam and Eve were already created mortal before the Fall.[83] Apart from his specific views, Augustine recognizes that the interpretation of the creation story is difficult, and remarks that we should be willing to change our mind about it as new information comes up.[84]

Looking at any civilization in the Mediterranean back then they all have some sort of story about a massive flood hitting their area and destroying everything. Also some things like the Sphinx shows some water damage on it by water flowing by it.

Not really. Few religions demand mindless blind faith. That's a jewish thing. Sure people from non-kike religions can believe shit that isn't true because of religion, but generally their religions don't command them to not learn and just obey a fucking book like the kike religions do.

>Religions all contain supernatural aspects, which by definition require complete and blind faith.
This isn't true either and this entire viewpoint is a product of kike beliefs taking over the west for a millennium. There are two basic types of evidence: empirical evidence and experiential evidence. Modern science, being a product of the abject materialism that resulted from the cancer of jewish religion entirely disregards as fiction anything which can't be repeated. That's a shitty way of viewing reality. Just because you can't repeat something in a lab doesn't mean it doesn't exist, and believing it does gives an incomplete view of the universe.

>Without any sort of faith you turn into a literal moralless, tipping, bug chasing, faggot

Very few people would disagree with that at this point.

This tends to happen to all river-based settlements very very often. The nile floods all the time.

The Bronze age derps thought "Oh wow, the whole WORRRRLDDD must have flooded"! Let's write about this lmao.

I mean the book of Noah must've been written by Noah, or his descendent.

So really it's a self centered tale about how my grandad built a boat, and saved the world.

Nice red herring. Has nothing to do with what I said. Like I said, there are things someone from another religion might believe that are inaccurate but few religions COMMAND their adherents to live by blind faith. That's mostly a jewish practice.

>This is what faith is, it requires faith to believe in things for which there is no empirical evidence.
No, it doesn't. All you have to do is say "I don't know" when you can't repeat something and leave it a question mark. Most modern materialists are totally unwilling to do this. They should claim agnosticism on such issues, but too often claim negative gnosticism, which is false.

>Absolutely. The Holy Bible is the literal work of God and Christianity (Not Orthodoxy, Not Catholicism) is the only correct religion.

You don't understand. There's good evidence that he DIDN'T exist given that the only evidence that he does is highly fraudulent. The first written documentation of jesus' supposed death are ALL decades after he died. There is not one valid contemporary account of jesus as a real person.

Oh shit, I misread. But yeah, if there's no evidence for someone other than badly written mythical propaganda, it's usually a pretty safe bet it's false. When it comes to shit like that, and you find sources outside the people writing the pap you tend to find that the story is way different - like with the story of Exodus. Basically everything kikes have ever said about their history is a lie except that they were in the Middle East at some point. Even their own chronology for when they adopted monotheism is totally false.

We’re told that the purpose of the ghastly planet-killing exercise is that mankind was wicked. That’s the reason everything was cruelly destroyed — except for Noah, his righteous family, and their chosen menagerie. Okay, fine, but there’s one little detail — the whole business was a colossal futility! There is still wickedness in the world, which means the planetary slaughter was not only cruel beyond imagining, it was also stupid. But even a creationist would agree that such behavior is incompatible with the nature of God, so the only rational conclusion is that the Flood is a childish myth.

You're right that most religions nowadays do not command blind faith, in fact they do not command much of anything.

I don't have much of a view outside of Christianity forgive my ignorance... but don't all religions necessitate a God making the Universe? From this point I see one of two beliefs (1) Believe that the god made the universe (religious, what ever religion), or (2) don't know (Agnosticism).

And if you choose to believe that a God created the universe, doesn't it require faith in the supernatural (without evidence)? This is what I was trying to get across. Also I am assuming no evidence for what made "big bang" because Stephen Hawking concludes that it would be impossible to get evidence

It wasn't built by the natives (toltecs or aztecs). They said this to the Spaniards when they conquered the land, it was uninhabited for centuries. They still say the same thing.

This is forgetting that God is supernatural and does shit, many reasons for which we do not understand.

They would say abiogensis without supernatural intervention is impossible, but not evolution.

If this supernatural god does exist (no physical evidence either way), than he could have planted fossils, corrected radioactive isotopes, and have the world IDENTICAL to in a universe where abiogensis did happen billions of years ago, rather than everything was created 8000 years ago

Most religions do have such myths. But many of their adherents realize they're just myths. Some don't. But again, I don't know of any non-jewish religions that COMMAND people to believe them.

I guess what I'm gathering from this is that if you believe in any god, you have to believe in any and all myths associated with that god? See, this shit is exactly the problem with monotheism. When there are many gods, people can do what they want and few people go apeshit trying to force people to believe in one specific myth. Monotheism is full retard.

Sure he could. And everyone admits that. But that's why we have Occam's Razor. Why the hell would an omnipotent, omniscient being plant literally an entire universe of evidence to make a universe look like a completely different one? What the hell would be the point? "OH-HO! I got you! Now you're going to hell because you had the common sense I gave a housefly!" It just doesn't make any fucking sense. Once again, proving that monotheism is full retard.

Excerpt there really was a flood around the time the bible confirms. What do you think happened to all the water after the ice age?
>>
>>73352869
Well it is probably a myth, or it is a re-telling of an epic Mediterranean flood as they understood it, but Christians believe the 2nd flood to wash out the wickedness you speak of is the second coming of Christ. All the good people ascend to heaven, while the bad people, after given once last chance to repent, are SOL. Im pretty sure they say they second destruction is coming by fire.

But thats why they are always talking about Jesus coming back after a really horrific incident and why cultists try to predict the exact date all the time. They believe that the world is so horrible that the second coming has to be happening really soon.

Oy well, again, this requires faith. I can say for Christianity that all of the stories spit in the face of logic and science, they require faith to believe in.

Occam's razor also argues against a God in the first place. If something created the universe, the universe must be less complex than whatever intrinsically made it - A solid argument for agnosticism that nothing can refute.

Anyone who tries to predict the second coming of Christ is a heretic that dares to put themselves on the same level as God.

Matthew 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

Christ himself said that only the Father knows, so these people who try to predict his coming are going against very clear scripture.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/population-change-shift-upheaval-europe-discovered-by-scientists-a6855336.html
>A major and unexplained population shift occurred in Europe around 15,000 years ago when local hunter-gatherers were almost completely replaced by a group from another area, scientists researching our ancestors' genetics have discovered.
>The findings were made after the extensive study of DNA evidence obtained from the bones and teeth of ancient people who lived in Europe during from the Late Pleistocene to the early Holocene, a period of roughly 30,000 years.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6bekli_Tepe
>The tell includes two phases of ritual use dating back to the 10th – 8th millennium BCE. During the first phase, pre-pottery Neolithic A (PPNA), circles of massive T-shaped stone pillars were erected. More than 200 pillars in about 20 circles are currently known through geophysical surveys. Each pillar has a height of up to 6 m (20 ft) and a weight of up to 20 tons. They are fitted into sockets that were hewn out of the bedrock.[5] In the second phase, Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB), the erected pillars are smaller and stood in rectangular rooms with floors of polished lime. The site was abandoned after the PPNB-period. Younger structures date to classical times.

OP is right and people deflecting are the fags for once.
Jesus references the flood and not in an allegorical fashion.
>And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
>They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
>Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;
>But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
>Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

Considering the essence of Christianity is that the world will literally be ending when Jesus comes back and Satan thrown into the abyss and later the lake of fire, these accounts are not figurative, they're listed as warning examples of actual past events.
