THE LONG DAY OF JOSHUA - SUN STANDS TILL

One of the evidences for the historicity of the long day recorded in Joshua 10:13 and reiterated in Habakkuk 3:11 lies in the large body of traditions from many parts of the world according to which there was a long day (or night, or evening, depending upon the location) at about the same time that Joshua lived.

David Nelson dramatically informs us of this fact as follows: Chinese history speaks of Yao, their king, declaring that in his reign the sun stood so long above the horizon that it was feared the world would have been set on fire; and fixes the reign of Yao at a given date, which corresponds with the age of Joshua the son of Nun. . . .

 Quoting: Salt


*yawn*

The Chinese reference talks about 10 suns appearing in the sky and dragons being slayed. Somehow that doesn't really seem to align with the Biblical account of the sun standing still.


And I am guessing the others aren't much better.

so the fact that these archaelogical records have been found all over the globe and from the exact same time period, saying the exact same thing, means that the whole thing is false.

yeah, ok.

How is 10 suns in the sky for 10 days exactly the same as a single sun being in the sky for an entire day? Somehow I don't really see that...

Also if we are to assume that the 10 days 10 suns part of that story was right we must also assume the other supernatural references in that story must be true no?

Re: Atheist Billboards Outrage Charlotte NC Residents
I myself believe in god and I love him with all of my heart. I also believe in heaven and hell. However I have always found that religion should never be up for discussion. Sometimes even if two people believe in the same God they may have different beliefs. I am not ashamed of loving God at all. That is my belief. However I dont push my faith on anyone. I may go so far as to invite you to church but I dont try to be pushy.
I don't believe god would be happy with me looking down on anyone. GE told me to "love thy neighbors. He didn't say love thy neighbors as long as they believe the same as you. In my faith I believe that no one knows my heart but my God and I and I also believe that when I stand at the pearly gates I will stand before God alone. Just as I believe everyone will.
I dont believe these are things we should argue about. The way I believe is my business and the way my neighbors believe is their business. I think we should think more about respecting each other as human beings and try not to do things to hurt people or make fun of others.
I myself find the billboards hurtful however I dont think billboards are the proper ways to display any belief rather it be a believer or a non believer.

Re: Atheist Billboards Outrage Charlotte NC Residents
I have read the bible and the creator of all of us is looking for people who respect Him and understand that He wants only those who seek HIS ways... Those who would rather blow it off and criticize are not HIS they are children of Satan... Who if you read your bible would know that is the prince of this world....due to the fall of Adam and Eve! Problem with atheists is that they only pick and choose... They don't have all the facts... Just like the Lord says... My people perish from lack of knowledge! In other words...you choose Satan...there's only two choices...man wasn't created by a stupid bang!!!



Christians can apparently dish it out but they can't take it. If they would ever actually READ their Bible, they would see that the God they worship is a sadistic monster. He tortures humans forever who commit the "horrible sin" of not believing in him. In the meantime, he is apparently hiding because no one has ever seen or heard him. If you worship a monster like this, it is only because of fear.

Look at the Scriptures which tell you that God commands his heathen warriors to kill all men, women, children, livestock, etc. A verse in Psalms says something like "happy is he who takes your little ones and bashes their heads against rocks." If this is the God you worship, you are dead inside. You don't know right from wrong. You are selfish and immature. You live in a world that is not based on fact, logic or reason.

If you can't take atheists who criticize the ridiculous nature of your beliefs, then maybe you should grow up. The Bible is a book written by ancient men. They wrote it so they could control the population at that time by using fear. Their "God" supported slavery, war, killing, rape, child abuse, etc. A God who created the universe would not act this way. This is the way MEN act. You should understand this and you will...if you ever grow up.

Christians make a stupid fruit salad out of the Bible. They just pick the "fruit" they like and forget all about the "fruit" they don't like. They pick and choose the verses that basically say, "GOD LOVES ME" and forget about what a monster this "GOD" is. How selfish and small minded can you be? Christians need to grow up. Of course, you don't care about things like this because you are selfishly only thinking of yourself and your fantasy about some sky daddy who loves you. It is like talking to a brick wall. The response I would get would be the same...sad but true.

An atheist group in in Charlotte, N.C., put up two huge billboards Monday ridiculing Christianity and Mormonism.

The billboard against Christianity calls God "sadistic" and "useless," while the display against Mormonism calls God a "space alien."
