Wolf and Set,

God does not have to suspend the laws of physics to cause a sun flare and/or an aurora borealis during the span of a evening.

Nice post! Particularly interesting about how the "predictive" ability of early religions gave them authority, and how religious wars might lead to the questioning of religious authority.


Any authority can be questioned religious or nonreligious on the grounds of morality and civility.

That only constitutes a dodge from any issue. We arent questioning "any" authority. Im questioning your source.

The laws of physics belong to the world of our observation within the limits of our world and didn't exist before we applied words and symbols to them.

now youre reading from the same pack of Kool Aid as rex.
The laws of physics are and were immutable, our heads merely ran into them at some point.

Right, since man has only been able to recently define some of the laws of physics Spendi would need to be able to explain:

1) how things got to be the way they are without these laws
2) how by man's observation of these laws they somehow came into existence

God knew with his foreknowledge that a sun flare would give Joshua the upper hand in the battle. God showed Joshua the glory to come. Just as he can give us visions of victory to help us endure our own battles through life.

Ac 2:23
Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:

So do you still call it "sunrise" FM?

I imagine the notion was drug out of the same place from which it appears Rex draws mosta his notions; from where the sun don't shine.

All this too is on the pack of Cherry Kool Aid that Jim Jones passed around. Its not even evidence. Its like we all are talking way past each other.
Many of people on here are talking sense and you are merely pulling ouit quotes from some minor literarture text that has little if any bearing on the way things work.

The Bible says the sun and moon were both up at the same time so if it was at the time when it was "usually" night the natural explanation would be a sun flare/southern lights/aurora borealis. These phenomenon are rare but they do occur none the less.

Jos 10:13
And the sun stood still, and the moon stayed, until the people had avenged themselves upon their enemies. Is not this written in the book of Jasher? So the sun stood still in the midst of heaven, and hasted not to go down about a whole day.

Rex, ever ask yourself why there is no mention of anything resembling any such circumstance anywhere outside of that particular bit of the Abrahamic Mythopaeia? No similar reference in the known documents and legends of any contemporary or near-contemporary culture?

You don't have to "buy" anything, you need to just have a little faith FM. God is not trying to sell you something he is trying to give you a gift.

The "gift" of holy spirit.

In the Bible it was this holy spirit that enabled Joshua to obtain revelation from God. Your argument is with God not me, I did not write the book.

It looks like you're gonna have to speak to Rex's supervisor FM Smile

It's just like calling customer service, the first thing you have to do is ask for the supervisor. The front line people only know how to *read* you the manual, they don't even attempt to understand what you're telling them. And when they do attempt to understand something it's usually a train wreck, followed by another rendition of the manual.

FM,

Joshua was not supposed to win in the battle... he was outnumbered and there was no other advantage for him unless the sun continued to shine. Joshua believed God and the sun continued to shine. God planned for the sun to flare on that day before he made the universe. God knew that Joshua would believe and so he planned for Joshua's deliverance in advance. God did not have to change the laws of physics he just has to pre plan and steer events so they turned out in favor of righteousness.
