All religious verses are fraught with errors of omission and commision so we just try to point them out, das'all.

It is actually interpretation, not twisting. Any verse in the scriptures can be made to mean anything you want, especially the vague ones that speak only in metaphors.

For example, there are some groups that interpret Revelation as meaning the end of the world. There are a number of scholars, however, that interpret it as being about the end of Rome as the seven heads of the Whore of Babylon respond to the seven hills of Rome.

here is will only deal with the four corners of the earth
corner 1 north pole
corner 2 south pole
corner 3 any point on any side of the earth half way between the north and south.
corner 4 then is exactly opposite of corner three.
so yes you can get 4 corners in a circle just like you can fit a small square than a circle that will touch 4 points in said circle hence the four corners of the earth. very simple actually.


Perhaps you have lost sight of the definition of a corner.

1. The position at which two lines, surfaces, or edges meet and form an angle: the four corners of a rectangle.
2. The area enclosed or bounded by an angle formed in this manner: sat by myself in the corner; the corner of one's eye.

When the Bible speaks of four corners it's not speaking of a direction or vector. It's speaking of a flat surface with four corners. For them that was the shape of the earth.

Since humans wrote the Bible and not God it would be understandable that they would view the earth as flat.

If God wrote the Bible he clearly would have said the earth was a sphere. He didn't.

He would never had made the earth the center of the universe.

He never would have written such nonsense as making the sun stand still for 24 hours.

Humans, ignorant of the most basic science, would write such things. It's this ignorance of science that shows us the Bible was not written by God.

Then you accept that polytheism of the books of the Bible which came before the Babylonian captivity? You assert that "the sun stood still?" You assert that Noah, some old joker over one hundred fifty years old, build a boat, with no prior experience in ship building, in which he was able to transport two of every living specie, and all the food they would need for one year, and assure that none of them ate or otherwise killed one another?

I got a nice bridge in New York you might want to buy.

The bible is mono theistic.

IT teaches only one God
Who is the Father Son and Holy Ghost.
How many times do I have to say this
ONE GOD
who is THREE Beings.
ONE GOD
NOT THREE
Just ONE
ONLY ONE
NO MORE
NO LESS

have fun.

Oh, no? Revelations seems like it needs a lot of interpretation, especially seeing as Babylon no longer exists.

You bring up a good point with Revelations. Revelations says there will be no dogs in heaven. I have no interest in spending an eternity without those who truly are man's best friend.

New International Version, Genesis 1: 26-27 wrote:
Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."


The text of the first chapter of Genesis uses the word elohim, which means gods--plural. Scholars who don't have their head up a christian ass consider that this refers to Baal, the male, and Ashtoreth, the female.

So, if there is no interpretation, and it means what it means, elohim means gods, and therefore, Genesis accepts polytheism.

It's sumertime sumertime sum sum sumertime
Sumertime sumertime sum sum sumertime
Sumertime sumertime sum sum sumertime
Sumertime sumertime sum sum sumertime sumertime...

Well shut them books and throw 'em away
And say goodbye to dull school days
Look alive and change your ways
It's sumertime...

Well no more studying history
And no more reading geography
And no more dull geometry
Because it's sumertime

(Chorus)
It's time to head straight for them hills
It's time to live and have some thrills
Come along and have a ball
A regular free-for-all

Well are you comin' or are you stayin
You saw it first and I won't complain
Hurry up before I change
It's sumertime

Well I'm so happy that I could flip
Oh how I'd love to take a trip
I'm sorry teacher but zip your lip
Because it's sumertime

(Chorus)

Well we'll go swimmin' every day
No time to work just time to play
If your folks complain just say,
"It's sumertime"

And every night we'll have a dance
Cause what's a vacation without romance
Oh man this jive gets me in a trance
Because it's sumertime

Chorus
It's summertime

It's sumertime sumertime sum sum sumertime
Sumertime sumertime sum sum sumertime
Sumertime sumertime sum sum sumertime
Sumertime sumertime sum sum sumertime
Sumertime

It's sumertime


I m sure I gottem all.

have pun
