Yup although a lot of my original response has already been answered by the things later discussed in the forum

You have a good point especially considering we basically have not records from the middle ages

@keilah-h

The first dinosaur bones were found in 1647 and to give you a reference as to when 1500 and 1600 are based upon commonly known historical events:

1096 – The first Crusade

1337-1453  – Hundred Years War

1400s-1500s  – Italian Renaissance

1618-1648 – 30 years war

I really don’t think it likely there were dinosaurs in the 14th or…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

I’m saying 500 ad was considerable to recent to say that dinosaurs existed at the Sam time as humans just because well Jesus was born around 5 AD and the Roman Empire fell in 476 AD and as the Romans did a ridiculous amount of writing down things and were one of the first cultures to have written histories I think we would know d…[Read more]

That’s interesting. My one question is if it is a cathedral in England how exactly does that prove the dinosaurs thing. (Cause like if it’s a cathedral in England it would have to be post 596 AD.

well apparently using that xray stuff I mentioned earlier they figured out it actually originally looked like this:

Not a dragon 😭

Also this version would have aligned with the styles of the paintings in the surround area. Interesting right.

@thearcaneaxiom

(I looked it up)

so the painting was not debunked as a forgery rather that it was misinterpreted.

This is what it looks like currently

dinosaur right?

(note the white line was drawn around the image at a later date when it was originally found (there was this whole thing about drawing a chalk line around cave painting back…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

I feel like the dragons = proof dinosaurs co-exist with humans makes some sense. I have not read the book so I can’t totally debate about it and the dragon and snake thing was more just something I thought of off the top of my head at the moment because if for example we look at Asian interpretations of dragons they are l…[Read more]

So I’ve thought about predestination a bit after learning about Calvinism / John Calvin in History/AP Euro class. If you would like me to talk about the historical aspects of Calvinism I can. (I like to use history to do apologetics stuff as history and literature are my main areas of study)

Additionally I was t…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

Okay so I just have one gripe about the dragon argument. Couldn’t they just be based off of snakes? Because Snakes are long and dragon like, 🐍 🐉 see very similar.

@thearcaneaxiom

So I know I said I would respond to you on Saturday but I have ended up having less time than I thought (I’ve been volunteering to run backstage at a show this entire week and ended up getting sick last week) so sorry for not responding. I am still working on a response but I probably won’t have any time until Tuesday (th…[Read more]

Hello, I’m Folith-Feolin. (He/Him if we are sharing pronouns) I will be a high school junior next year and am the weird combo between a theater kid, a robotics kid, and model UN kid. (Also I do Quizbowl (I’m a lit/music player) I can say I am also a devoted Harry Potter person. I think my current favorite book is the Blade Its…[Read more]

@lydibug

Okay, I managed to catch a short break in what is the crazy schedule of this week.

Hello, Im Folith-Feolin (obviously this is a pen name). I enjoy writing dark fantasy/sci-fi, participating in theatrical productions (I generally do acting or help with lights), modeling UN, robotics, literature, and history. I am currently working on…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

I really found what you said quite interesting. If you want to know why I asked you about this the I came across the video by watching some stuff and was like I really want to know what ArcaneAxiom would have to say about this and if he was incorrect about anything or if Arcaneaxium might have some interesting stuff to say on it.…[Read more]

@thearcaneaxiom

I think you are exactly right about needing to approach gender issues lovingly and gently. I feel that in my experiences sharing the gospel with those populations you first have to get to know them as a person before you can actually talk to them about the gospel (if that makes sense?).

Sorry KP is weird sometimes

sorry KP is weird sometimes.

@light-warrior-pen

hmm interesting discussion in terms of technology, schooling, christians.

So in terms of technology I agree with the arguments previously mentioned by thearcaneaxiom keilah-h and orangearmadillo. In addition though technically has been very helpful in the spread of the gospel in areas that are hostile toward…[Read more]

@godlyfantasy12

I (and OtherworldlyHistorian) have experienced a bit of the opposite experience as in we need rules (or create them) in order to function best creatively. (Hence the chapter-by-chapter outline) However even with rules you have to realize that you have to be willing to change things. I think what may have happened also is that you…[Read more]
