Did Genesis Copy Sunmerian, Babylonian, and Egyption Creation Accounts?

I think the real point here is that you are making false statements about other people after you’ve been corrected!

This is called “bearing false witness”, and as I recall there’s a statement about that in Exodus.

This.

This is something that I’ve noticed coming from young earth zealots time and time again. They will make a claim, then you will point out to them that their claim is untrue, along with a careful explanation as to why it is untrue, then you will see them continuing to repeat the same claim over and over again without saying a thing to address your explanations of why their claim is untrue.

I and others have carefully explained to Adam and the other young earth zealots who appear on this forum from time to time that the reasons why scientifically literate people (including scientifically literate Christians) reject a young earth have nothing whatsoever to do with “atheism.” We have carefully explained that it all boils down to the basic rules and principles of mathematics and measurement, which are about as independent and neutral when it comes to philosophy or worldviews as you can possibly get. We have even pointed out that these are matters on which the Bible itself demands that we approach them honestly and accurately.

So when I see shenanigans such as this:

@adamjedgar

To add to the above, and to remain on-topic, because of absolutely lousy theology caused by twisting of scipture, and flat out denial of its historicity in order to match atheist scientific interpretations, we then find ourselves defending the claim that the Christian Bible is a plagiarism of Sumerian, Babylonian, and Egyptian cultural beliefs that the same bible very specifically states is a corruption.

I’m sorry, but I can no longer assume good faith on the part of people who continue to repeat such false accusations of “absolutely lousy theology” or “matching atheistic scientific interpretations” or “corruption” after having repeatedly had it explained to them not only that such accusations are false but why such accusations are false. Either they aren’t listening, or else they know full well that they aren’t telling the truth.
