LOL. I have the same rights as you do, and you Cannot handle it. :D <br />I'll state my opinion and my version of the truth any time I want, and you are powerless to stop me. <br />This means you have a problem with it, and that's the way it is.<br />And I wouldn't think of "imposing my truth on you". I would rather oppose a lie instead, and allways will. If you call that an imposition, I pity you. And you have a lot to learn about freedom.<br /><br />This was an extremely thoughtful, and thought-provoking thread, and here you go derailing it, wanting to hush folks up because you do not agree with them.<br />And this is the second time you've attacked me in the same thread. If you can't be nice, go away.

This is a very good question.<br /><br />The Judaeo-Christian-Islamic God wasn't revealed to man until about 5,600 something years ago in the Jewish tracts that lead into the Christian Old Testament.<br /><br />So how could earlier people, who were also God's children, worship and have faith in a god that hadn't been revealed to them, and how could they find a path to heaven when they didn't know what it was?<br /><br />Creationists will probably say that there weren't any humans before then, but for the rest of us it seems to present an interesting problem.

Perhaps, but we can't just exclude early man from the species of Man, which the bible claims God created the first one of, then a woman to keep him company. How far back do we want to go ?<br />I personally believe God was there, and created man, (IMHO).<br />In our teachings, we learned that Early man (Adam and Eve), had a DIRECT communication with God. We no longer have that.
