I am sorry about the trouble you are having with the site. is there anywhere I could made a donation to help you financially after that double payments?
Let me know and I can see what I can do.
Doesn't seem fair you should handle all the cost's.

 

The trouble there though is the question why it is that way when another configuration is conceivable.

Does what you're saying stop space time being necessary because it could be no other way. I would say no .So yes you are arguing for necessity and against it IMHO, because you are saying space time accounts for contingency.

Coming to something rather than nothing, Does nothing exist? or better still does non existence exist? And if it was a choice between nothing and something, something had to actualize that choice, since nothing is incapable of either choosing or actualisation or effecting that decision.
Therefore we have an unactualized actualized, and that which has been actualized.

In terms of no entities being contingent, I'm not sure who believes that and operates on it and would certainly say the burden of proof is on someone who suggests it.

You do not have authority or knowledge to sustain what you are writing. You cannot decide what passes as a prophecy and what doesn't. We have terrorist in the world who carry out their threats
so what is that? Prophecy telling something before they do it? Truth is that God has warnings in the bible.

While there have been claims of finding evidence like solidified footprints and chariot remains on the Red Sea floor, suggesting the biblical Red Sea crossing by the Israelites, these claims are not universally accepted and are often disputed by archaeologists and scientists. The "footprints" are not definitively identified as human or of any specific origin, and the "fossilized" nature of the remains is debated.

So did the waters part and then close on the chariots and Egyptians as told in the bible.  Do you know the Egyptians never wrote about battles they lost they wiped failures out of history.
I have studied many things over the years and read up on the accounts of how others lived,

The Possible Palace, Tomb and Statue of Joseph
One last stunning piece of evidence for Joseph exists, and that brings us back to his burial in Goshen, and his bones that were removed by Moses at the time of the Exodus. In this same area in Goshen, where a large contingent of Semites lived, a great palace has been discovered, with a garden and a tomb, curious in its combination of Egyptian and Semitic styles. Rohl and his colleagues believe the palace is that of Joseph, perhaps his retirement villa after many years of service to Pharaoh. It has two apartments in front, suggesting the living quarters of his sons, Ephraim and Manasseh. In the rear are the more spacious living quarters of the prime occupants, perhaps Joseph and his Egyptian wife.

Adjacent to the ruins of the palace, there is an elegant garden area, and in the garden was an unusual tomb. The tomb was in the shape of a small pyramid, but it is clear that the vault was broken into and the remains removed. However, the damage to the tomb was not like that done by the all too common grave robbers of Egypt. It appears to be a careful and methodical removal of bricks from the tomb, as one would expect where the bones of Joseph were carefully removed from his long-used grave by Moses. Could it be that we have here the very tomb of the great patriarch Joseph? The evidence certainly takes it out of the realm of mythology, even for the hardened scientist, and into the realm of accurate history.
One thing is for sure.... If, Jesus and Joseph never existed or if he didn't do all he did, why is it spread all over the world now over 2,000 years later?
Who in history is more talked about than Christ and characters who lived the bible?

I do not accept what you say for you have no evidence at all. At least the evidence for the bible is being supported by finds which lets be truthful, men could not walk on the bottom of any sea so deep in the time of the biblical heroes and the Prophets. Can you disprove God? Can you disprove his word the most sold publication ever?

Offer me than opinion...show me you looked and what you present ever is nothing more than trying to prove only what you believe.

When you know the answer to that question you might already have come to know God.
I came here tonight and was met with the above, whilst reading the replies suddenly lead to other posts but found my way back,
It is not the easiest of searches because I believe it starts with the heart and true search wanting to believe.

Now think about yourself. In life you might not want God to be real. Might, not really search so you don't have to accept these facts or not.
Just try to think do you want the truth or do you want to remain ignorant to the possibilities that it could be the worst decision you make?
