I don't need to give a biblical account of them knowing good from evil; it's right there if you use logic. You are the one lying to yourself and making excuses not to listen to the logic offered by commentators.
Yes, you do need to give me a biblical account. No it isn't right there, even using logic. I don't believe that I am lying to myself. Logic offered by commentators who hold what authority? They are Jewish, and can speak Hebrew? Is that what gives them the authority to infer something of that magnitude? Nonsense. They're 'logic' means absolutely nothing. They are taking a word, and giving it meaning beyond what it should ever have. "command not to eat from it would produce a knowledge of good and evil within man." Is nonsense. I did listen to the 'logic' offered by the commentators, and I don't agree with it; also, I never had a chance to make an excuse not to listen to it.
Are you referring to the "author" of Genesis or the author of the movie? And implying is what someone speaking/writing does, inferring is left up to the audience/reader.
The author of the movie. The author 'inferred' upon the Bible, that was what I was saying. I can see how the mistake can be made though, sorry for not making it clearer.
You're making excuses again. The Old Testament was written in Hebrew (except parts of Daniel and Ezra in Aramaic), so if we have confusion in what a passage says, we go to the original language to see if translation has caused a problem in understanding. Here we see that this is exactly what has happened.
Bullshit, Hebrew today and the Hebrew of the bible are different. Even translating it from Old Hebrew to Modern Hebrew is up for speculation. There is no "perfect" translation. Every translation can, and most likely was/is debated.
I'll look to experts like Nate Wilson to clarify the language difficulties to me.
Read the above.
Why on earth should I expect God to record the entirety of conversations when we never do that in reporting historical events; we're lucky to get any conversation at all! Your excuse to throw out the Bible as "not fully inspired" is baloney. Good use of the word "infer"! I'm not sure what you're referring to with the Maccabees. Please explain.
Why on Earth should you expect God NOT to give you the entirety of conversations? You are correct, we don't report everything in historical events; this shows a HUGE fallacy in the bible. The Maccabees along with other books were "thrown out" of the bible by none other than Martin Luther. According to him, they were corrupted by many years of roman rule. According to me, the whole bible was 'corrupted' by all of man.
What gives him more authority on the matter than me? He was just a monk that had a legitimate concern with the Catholic church, and how they conducted business. I'm just a man who has a legitimate concern with all of religion and how it conducts business.
Along with the backing of kings and nobles, he started the Lutheran faith. Because of logic and reason, I renounced faith. Of course, he is on a MUCH greater scale than I am, we are still on a scale together. Think back to geometry, or maybe algebra class.
But it makes sense, whereas an omniscient God truly not knowing where Adam was does not.
DING DING DING DING DING DING DING! You win the prize! Yes! You did it, I knew you could Melidere. An omni-X God truly not knowing where Adam was makes NO SENSE AT ALL! And an guess, that is really just an excuse, which also has no backing by just about anything, does make sense! Yes! Yes! Yes! I'm VERY proud of you. Holy crap, I almost wet my pants when I read this. Good job!
I addressed your concern here already. Notice that the theme of the day here is TRUST. Adam had to trust that God's warning was valid, and we have to trust that God knew what he was doing when he omitted the warning about the serpent. Why did God have a plan of redemption waiting?
Why couldn't Adam trust the serpent? Why did God have a plan of redemption waiting? Because he is a cruel douche-bag and would rather curse humanity forever for something extremely trivial, rather than just explaining to Adam and Eve why what they did was wrong.
