I see no "Biblical proof". Digging something up from the time when King David supposedly existed is not in and of itself proof that King David actually existed. The lineage of the Biblical King David can be traced all the way back to Adam and as we know Adam never existed (humans evolved, fact) it follows that the Biblical King David also never existed. There may have been an individual going by the moniker of "King David" at some point in history but that would be a different individual to the Biblical King David. And, of course, the same applies to the Biblical Jesus Christ who also never actually existed. /Flibble -- "Snakes didn't evolve, instead talking snakes with legs changed into snakes." - Rick C.

I've posted the way to salvation through Christ. Believe, repent, ask forgiveness. I've provided evidence showing where the narrative given us by leading education providers is wrong. I've shown you how complex DNA is and that it completely removes any possibility of evolution being a thing. I've told you all everything you need to know to be saved.

Preaching your so called "evidence" is an attempt to destroy faith; why can't you understand this simple fact? Do you even accept that there is no need for faith if there is evidence?

The evidence is for you, Leigh, to demonstrate that what you're holding on today is not based on truth, but is part of the lie designed to deceive you. The evidence removes your ability to believe in what you are today believing in. It forces you to look elsewhere, to seek out the truth. It forces you to ask the big questions you are suppressing today behind your "And Satan invented fossils" shield. Now that you know dinosaurs walked with man, that argument falls apart. If that thing you believed in so precisely falls apart, what other beliefs you've held on to are also false, even though they seemed so true and solid previously? You'll find that nearly everything you've believed in here in this world has been a deception in one way or another. The new spirit nature reveals to you those things your flesh alone could not know. I hope you come to recognize this, Leigh, because you are a beautiful creation of God that He desires with fullest desire to see redeemed. -- Rick C. Hodgin |

It does not matter whether we are directly affected by the hate speech or not - we should not stand by and let people see that c.l.c++ is a community where hate speech or prejudice is acceptable. Having said that, there is little point in posting further in "discussions" with Rick. Every humane or rational post elicits at least one new crackpot one. You can't argue logically with someone whose axioms are so out of kilter with reality, and which are self contradictory. (I have made that futile mistake often enough - too often - myself.) It is a sad but true fact that no one has figured out a cure for people like Rick in newsgroups.

Whilst one may need more than a single post to register an effective objection ("Stop being a prat.", "How am I being a prat?", "Because you said this, this and this."), one should then stop. In addition, I don't always feel the need to object if someone else has already done so. This is not ideal, since communities are based on shared values, but sometimes I feel that agreement can be widely assumed to exist. And finally, if I remember, I'd mark any such reply with "[OT]" in the subject. That enables anyone who prefers the filter option to do so effectively. This strategy (consider if you need to add your voice, make your point but don't discuss it, mark the posts as off-topic), should I think, prevent the RCH's of the world from killing what's left of Usenet. -- Ben. |

There are hundreds of examples in this video, including carvings etched into buildings 2500 years ago, Emperors who had positions on their staff related to dinosaurs, the symbols in multiple cultures of the dinosaur (called "dragon" in the past, as the term dinosaur wasn't invented until the 1800s), pieces of pottery with dinosaurs on them, hieroglyphic symbols which are dinosaurs, stones with diff- erent kinds of dinosaurs on them, including some that had been do- mesticated, and some that were killing people, burial cloths found with colorful patterns on them which show what dinosaur skin looked like, ancient recipes which call for various ingredients from dino- saurs, stories of how they were defeated by great warriors, stories of how they were defeated in unexpected ways (pulling the arms off a T. Rex, for example, and they bleed to death), and much more. It's all in the video. Dinosaurs in the Bible https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrkYDzILgtA The only question is whether or not YOU want to know the truth, or if you are content to believe the lie. It is that which separates the saved from the damned, Leigh. All people who seek the truth with an active passion and deliberate focus will be saved, because God Himself will see them seeking the truth, and He Himself will draw that person to the truth, to His Son, from within. You have been given so much evidence that what you believe in is false. Why won't you consider it? It doesn't come solely from Biblical sources. There are countless secular sources as well, from newspaper articles, to local legends, to hand renderings of things people saw, from groups of people recounting what they saw, and more. It is truly a fool who will not examine the evidence, and consider the possibility that what they think they know today is wrong. -- Rick C. Hodgin |

What does the Bible say about homosexuality in the New Testament (the age we're under presently)? https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1+Corinthians+6%3A9-10%2C+1+Timothy+1%3A8-10%2C+Jude+1%3A7%2C+Romans+1%3A26-28%2C+Colossians+3%3A5-11&version=NIV;KJV 9 Or do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor men who have sex with men[a] 10 nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. Footnotes: [a] 1 Corinthians 6:9 The words men who have sex with men translate two Greek words that refer to the passive and active participants in homosexual acts. And there are other verses going back to Sodom and Gomorrah's de- struction, and how those places were destroyed as a warning to all future generations, destroyed BEFORE the day of judgment to drive home the point of just how serious God is about this. ----- Non homosexual who is not in repentance of their homosexuality in subjection to Jesus, will enter into Heaven. Homosexuality is an ongoing sin listed among other such sins as adultery, thieves, swindlers, etc., that separates a person from God. There is no acceptance of homosexuality in Christianity. That does not mean we don't love the homosexual and reach out to them and help them and teach them and guide them and provide for their personal needs, but it also doesn't mean we tacitly accept their homosexuality as being okay. We are required, mandated, by God, to teach them the truth, THAT HOMOSEXUALITY IS A SIN GOD WILL JUDGE ON JUDGMENT DAY, AND IT IS A SIN THAT WILL SEE A SOUL CAST INTO ETERNAL HELLFIRE ... LITERALLY FOREVER BURNING ALIVE. Christians warn people of these things, teaching them why God has set aside a day for judging all flesh. It is not us hating people. IT IS US LOVING PEOPLE that we are willing to teach them the truth! It would truly be hate if we did not warn people of God's judgment, as even this famous atheist realizes: Penn Jillette on Evangelism https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZPe3NGgzYQ0 "I've always said that I don't respect people who don't proselytize. I don't respect that at all. If you believe that there's a Heaven and a Hell, and people could be go- ing to Hell or not getting eternal life, and you think that it's not really worth telling them this because it would make it socially awkward -- and atheists will think people shouldn't proselytize and say just leave me along and keep your religion to yourself -- how much do you have to hate somebody to not proselytize? How much do you have to hate somebody to believe everlasting life is possible and not tell them that?

Jesus wants to forgive each of us for our sin. He calls out to us asking us to ask Him to save us. There is a path to salvation in understanding who we are, and who God is, and why He did what He did for us at the cross. It is called "The Romans Road To Salvation" and is so-named because there are verses of scripture in the book of Romans which lay out the full path of our guilt, to our salvation through Jesus Christ: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+3%3A10-12%2C+23%2C+6%3A23%2C+5%3A8%2C+10%3A9-10%2C+13%2C+5%3A1%2C+8%3A1%2C+8%3A38-39&version=NIV;KJV Romans 3:10-12 King James Version (KJV) 10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: 11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. 12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. Romans 3:23 King James Version (KJV) 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Romans 6:23 King James Version (KJV) 23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 5:8 King James Version (KJV) 8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 10:9-10 King James Version (KJV) 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:13 King James Version (KJV) 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 5:1 King James Version (KJV) 5 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: Romans 8:1 King James Version (KJV) 8 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. Romans 8:38-39 King James Version (KJV) 38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. If you read through those verses, it takes you through the knowledge each of us need to understand why we need Jesus. Only Jesus is able to take away our sin from us, to cleanse us of all unrighteousness, and it's exactly because of what He did at the cross, dying in our place, a substitutional sacrifice. He pays the price of our sin, setting us free. And it was His good pleasure and loving gift to do this for us considering what was at stake (eternity in Hell, and a human soul being lost forever). ----- You think these posts are off-topic, destroying Usenet, or in some way hurtful, harmful, even hate speech. On the day of judgment, all who did not accept Jesus Christ, all who are facing THE TOTAL AND COMPLETE END OF THEM will then view these posts differently. They will long with greatest longing to be able to go back to the Earth for one moment to see these posts again and repent and ask forgiveness ... but it will be too late. God's judgment is final, and He's already told us in advance what He will judge: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=1%20Corinthians%206%3A9-10%2C%201%20Timothy%201%3A8-10%2C%20Jude%201%3A7%2C%20Romans%201%3A26-28%2C%20Colossians%203%3A5-11&version=NIV%3BKJV And there is more than that He judges. We learn what it is by our studying the Bible. God has given us a written word, having given us the knowledge we need to overcome all things. Put your trust in Jesus, Ben, and live. -- Rick C.

You forget that a book or a picture is evidence but fossils, lack of those and/or radiometric dating of those is not. Radiometric dating has to be wrong since world is 6000 years old anyway. All these creatures: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_legendary_creatures_by_type have therefore "plenty of evidence" and since some are reptiles it must be dinosaurs.

We do. The enemy regroups his tactics. The enemy was there on the Earth ~5000+ years ago when Adam was alive, and after the flood when the dinosaurs were still here. The enemy cannot ex- plain them away because there's proof of their existence, but he can try to introduce falseness into our thinking. He devotes feature-length movies to the idea of "millions of years ago" and "they had their time" and so on. The enemy is seeking to see each of your soul's destroyed in Hell by giving you false ideas to grab hold of. But if you press in and investigate what he claims, you'll discover his lies for your- self. That video I linked above shows cave paintings around the world of dinosaurs, by Native American Indians, reports of a possible pterodactyl seen as recently as the wild wild west frontier days. There is so much evidence for the existence of dinosaurs along- side man, but of course they weren't called dinosaurs back then but rather dragons (because the word dinosaur didn't come into existence until the 1800s). People make fun of unicorns existing because we don't see them today, but we do see narwhals, rinos, we find fossil evidence of one-horned dinosaurs, and three-horned dinosaurs (an odd number, so it's not directly symmetric). The Bible teaches us the truth. It's up to us to look to what God has written and say, "Okay God, your written word makes this claim. Do we find any evidence of what you say here in our world?" Do you know there are over 300 flood legends from around the world. One from isolated Hawaii talks bout Nu-u and his family who built a great canoe and filled it with animals and there was a great flood and only Nu-u and his family survived. One from China reads similarly. In fact, many fundamental Chinese words derive the story of 8 people coming through the flood by the symbols used for the words they relate to. IF YOU INVESTIGATE THE CLAIMS OF THE BIBLE you'l find they do bear out under scrutiny. And what you'll also find is that there is a great movement against God, against the Bible, against Jesus Christ, against knowledge of sin, against God's call for holiness, because the enemy knows if he can deceive us away from Christ our eternal soul will be lost, and that's exactly what that ENEMY wants for us, to destroy us, and to harm God. -- Rick C.

| rick.c.hodgin@gmail.com: Jun 21 08:24AM -0700 What God wants from us (His creation) is a relationship. He wants us to remember Him as we go through our day, to note two squirrels running through a wooded area and to think to ourselves, "God, you made that," and to remember that we are all His creation, and there are some of us who need help, and we should help them, and there are some of us who have skills and are leaders and we should lead. God gifts us our abilities. He reaches His hand into our lives and nudges us this way, or that way, or gives us an opportunity to achieve something and do and shine our temporary Earthly glory in this world. But He wants us to always remember that it is Him who made us, Him who gifted us with abilities and opportunities. He wants us to acknowledge the truth. God is looking for people who seek the truth, realize who He is, who we are, why we need Him, and then to serve Him by going out and teaching others the same. He's looking for things to be done properly and in order unto Him, and not improperly and out of order unto the enemy as they are today in this world. He's making everything new. A new Heaven and a new Earth are coming. He will dwell with us and be our God face-to-face, as we are His people face-to-face. He's creating a Kingdom of glory, and He's inviting us to partake of it. The enemy of God tries to make it seem like it's something else, but if you press in and seek the truth you will discover God and His true plans for each of us. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Jeremiah+29.11&version=NIV;KJV 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

If you study the elevations of the rocks around the Grand Canyon you'll discover they are higher than the river. It would have been impossible for it to carve the rocks away. And if you look at what happened at Mt. St. Helens in the 1980s and 90s after its eruption, you'll see how the various crooked rock formations were made.

In any context in which an array of function pointers might be useful, and array of pointers to function objects might be viable alternative. Or it might not be. If it is viable alternative, it might be a superior one.

I was merely providing the simplest non-trivial example I could think of to show Bart what a function object is. Any real world example could easily be a lot more complicated and a lot more heterogenous - for example, the pointers could be to a base class, with the actual function objects they point at being of derived classes - which is a good reason for using an array of pointers to function objects, rather than an array of function objects. > std::function objects wrapping lambda expressions.

Really? Anyway, it seems odd to give an array of pointers to function objects to a beginner as an example of an alternative to an array of function pointers. (A function pointer is a callable object, as is a function object, but a pointer to a function object is not.) > could be to a base class, with the actual function objects they point at > being of derived classes - which is a good reason for using an array of > pointers to function objects, rather than an array of function objects. Types with virtual overridden call operators, held by unique_ptr? Use std::function. > > std::function objects wrapping lambda expressions. > That also is included in what I meant. An array of std::function objects, which is a perfectly reasonable alternative to an array of function pointers, is an array of function objects, not an array of pointers to function objects. |
