@josephw saidI'm sure Hindus would say your creation narrative is a counterfeit too.
When? I mean when. When was that written, and by whom?
Doesn't even sound right. And it doesn't say "God created" either.
It's a counterfeit. And where's the rest of it? Does it say how Brahma made everything, and in what time frame?
Brahma is the creator God of the universe. Here is a 3 minute video if you want to fill in some of the gaps.

@divegeester saidNo it's not. No I'm not.
It always makes me smile when I see you make a demand like this; it’s as though you are trying to convince people that you’ve actually read all the material where it might have been written.

@josephw saidGhost of a Duke gave you a bang on reply to your jazz-hands question and your reply is more obfuscation and counter-measures questions designed to throw him off your on-fire tail.

Sort out your own life, little man, and then let that life be an inspiration to others, without imposition -- you ridiculously overheated and self-important little clod.

I'm sure it's more of a rictus.

BTW, I haven't heard you make your claim of being a Christian in a while. Perhaps you could throw in a good word for the one you say you believe in.
But what fun would that be, right?

@executioner-brand saidWho you talking to?
on the one hand you say the bible is key to the creation of life on the other you have zero answers in science.

"everything that exists, exists. i accept that."
Would be difficult to deny.
"you believe the key to that is in the Bible"
I do.
" yet from a religious standpoint mankind would fall"
True. Religion is not the way.
"whereas science and technology advance the human race."
Of a truth. It also has the potential to destroy, if in the wrong hands.
"the bib ...[text shortened]... ternal life
"and is just as much the key to life... not at all."
Jesus said, "I am the way..."

@executioner-brand saidSpirituality, strictly speaking, and science are mutually exclusive with regards to their particular focuses.
on the one hand you say the bible is key to the creation of life on the other you have zero answers in science. It is the same with many religions around the globe, each documenting the beginning of time with zero answers in reality within science. They were all just a dream.
I've never claimed that the Bible answers questions that science asks about the natural world, like in physics or biochemistry or astronomy, etc.
On the other hand science has no answers to questions related to things spiritual, like the afterlife, resurrection, enlightenment, etc.
It seems though that science and spirituality cross paths in the realm of the questions of origins.
No need to be troubled with the apparent conundrum. Science, it appears, has discovered, or so it thinks, that energy and matter have always existed, mindlessly it seems, and then over billions of years produced the life on earth we see today through a process called evolution.
Spirituality, and I refrain from the use of the term "religion", it seems, has to do with a creator, which just so happens to be invisible, at least to the physical senses.
I am grateful to science and those that develop machines and inventions that remove labor intensive work and made my washing mashing, my car, cell phone, computer, shoes, etc. etc.
God gave me life.
