#Apologetics - Believers (like @GenesisHappened @JWarnerWallace @AIG @Sean_McDowell @GotQuestions @OneMinApologist @RFupdates @AClearLens @Frank_Turek @ThePoachedEgg @TheologyTweets @RZiMhq @GregKouki @STRtweets) respond to Doubters

'A discussion posted after watching Genesis Apologetics' Debunking the Seven Myths that Deny Biblical Truth' is linked through 'the main word' below; but I feel it's more important to understand that word better. And I find that you understand words better when you look at the other words at the bases of the words you're thinking-of ...

The word “Apologetics” (a |Formal Defense (of Christian Beliefs, originally)) is built on ancient words that mean "Away from, Off + Speech (cf. |Collect-, |Gather Words)" (the "Regretfully Acknowledging Failure"-meaning is linked to the barely-related word Apologize). #Apologia #Apologist #Apologism

Genesis Apologetics debunks these 7 myths:

• Myth 1: “While The Bible may be ‘inspired,’ by God, it’s not ‘inerrant’ and parts of it are just myth.”
that link goes to their specific response, but
• The "myth" is right. Sure, "God's Word" is the inspiration you receive while you read The Bible; but every Bible is WRITTEN BY HUMANS (don't believe me? find the copyright information in the front cover ... if it says "©God" (or -Yahweh or -Jehovah or -Our Father or -Holy Spirit or -Jesus or -Yeshua), please forgive me)
• Myth 2: “The Bible’s account of Creation is only metaphorical, the six creation days were not ordinary days, and creation really unfolded over millions of years.”
that link goes to their specific response, but
• The "myth" is right. Or not; the exact schedule isn't the point of the story
• Myth 3: “Genesis 1 and 2 provide two different accounts of creation.”
that link goes to their specific response, but
• The "myth" is right. Technically.
• Myth 4: “Adam and Eve were not real people, only allegorical figures in the story of human evolution.”
that link goes to their specific response, but
• The "myth" is right. Sorta ... the same way George Washington was not a real person (i.e. he was- & they were, but that's not as important as 'the characters in your head.'
• Myth 5: “The Bible’s account of Noah’s Flood is just myth and was drawn from writings from the Ancient Near East.”
that link goes to their specific response, but
• The "myth" is right, in a way. The implied specifics might not be the right ones.
• Myth 6: “Moses did not actually write the first five books of the Bible.”
that link goes to their specific response, but
• The "myth" is right. 'Moses wrote the Torah' just like 'George Bush Sr. tore down the Berlin Wall.'
• Myth 7: “Dinosaurs died out millions of years ago, did not walk with man, and are not mentioned in the Bible.”
that link goes to their specific response, and
• I agree with GA. 'Dinosaurs'---the actual creature probably wasn't actually dead, but the word "Dinosaur" hadn't been invented yet! The movie mentioned "Leviathan" (a word I've been seeing used in both MARVEL- and DC-adventure series), but the movie spent a lot of time describing the creature named by the word "Behemoth."
