He is. He doesn't make all Muslims to be Christians. Same way a mustard plant that grows to BECOME a tree doesn't make all mustard trees. Understood?

Ok I see what you are saying.

In the bible fornication is sex between an unmarried couples not what people think it is.
I thought you theists were saying something may have meant one thing now and meant another thing thousands of years back. So why is fornication and exception of what may have meant something else then?

so because something may have meant something else at different times prove that fornication changed? See logic

My point was that the scientific system of naming things are only a recent development It does not apply to ancient system which were based on cultures and religions.

When I google this image you know what comes up? Blog posts, i can't find anything to confirm that it's the picture of a mustard tree.
Type pictures of mustard seed tree.
That and some others will appear.
Pick anyone u like

We learn everyday, don't we? kiss.

It reminds me of that tree we call fruit tree. I don't even know the name but it's like a canopy. Most compounds my side have it and schools. Very good shade. During the heat season, both humans and animals in the house love to stay there.

So "fornication"may have meant something else thousands of years back and thus people should not call sex between two unmarried adults as fornication and a single since the word may have depicted something else.

the bible was translated from the original Greek manuscript to English language and other languages.
At times, there may be clash of word use for different language, those who study linguistics will understand that.
For instance, Areko means building in my local language and the same word is used interchangeably for tent or canopy.
Why?
Because both building and canopy serves as protection against rainfall and sunlight.
So, if the bible recorded that Jesus used tree in place of shrub, he is not out of place.

Look at vulture running her mouth.....carry those slabs of meat u call body and ffuck off....
Because jesusjnr refused your advances you got angry at him and trolled him
C'mon now Michellekabod2, lets be reasonable here, but you called Anäs09 along with others a móron first, and that's before she used the word prostitute, at which after, you then referred her to being an animal. You actually went to great length to make sure the platform didnt change "móron" to slowpoke, so seeing to the intended damage being done for you. On your rebound, you then laid on her with excessive force and harassment.

Mustard is not a regular part of Nigerian cuisine to the best of my knowledge.



But since it's also called the toothbrush tree, is it where chewing stick is derived from?

Confused Dullard! cheesy

Don't expect everyone to be as stupid as you're with all your university grades, because scientists discovered some things they automatically became you god!
Some people before you discovered akara, moimoi, ekuru and porridge, stupid you have been enjoying all of these from childhood. So why don't you ask those Scientists who made such discoveries 'how beans came to exist'? Or do you want to argue that turning beans to akara is not science? grin

Yet you've put all your trust in humans like you just because they discovered some things by making use of what God has made, they're now the ones in whom you trusted completely to tell you about your own very existence! cheesy

Do you think Jesus was giving a lecturer in botany? cheesy

If you're not stupid, you supposed to use your God's given discretion to grasp what Jesus said there.

The mustard seed is noted as one of the tiniest in seeds but if one spec should fall to a fertile soil it will germinate to something big enough for the birds (that could swallow the seed at a go) to land with all its wait upon its branch!

That's the message Sir! cheesy

"Of course, the scientific classification schemes of modern botany were not yet invented -- classification was by appearance and function, not by biology. In that regard, the mustard plant of Palestine (Sinapis nigra) could grow to a height of several (2-6) feet and be considered a tree -- if not by the scheme of modern science (Is a bonsai a "tree"?), then assuredly by the descriptive classification scheme of the ancients."

Wow!!!! Holy smokes! Well there has to be a criteria for something before it is categorised. For example Pluto didn’t fall in the category of a planet because it didn’t posses any of the characteristics.

So if there’s no criteria before you consider something a tree then anyone can just wake up and call a spirogyra a tree



Back to the OP. It might not really be a serious case, because the people who wrote the bible didn’t understand how the world works. They wrote it based on what they understood grin maybe at that time it was classified a tree.

But it becomes wrong if you try to use the bible as a science text book to explain how the natural world works

What I don’t understand about these believers is that they do not practice everything in their so called sacred book. If you ask a Christian why doesn’t he do what Deuteronomy commands him to do ( he’s permitted to own slaves, he’s permitted to rape and murder). You’d hear things like it’s the Old Testament and god has abandoned.

Common! God didn’t abandon anything, you just used your common sense to tell you that what the bible told you was wrong. if you can throw some parts of the bible away why don’t you just throw everything away



Are u practicing everything according to constitution of ur land? Do that first, the lives of believers are of no important to u pls.

Ur frustrated life, when will u smoothening it? If u can't straighten it, why can't u throw it away into a flowing river?

Having heart attack on top of someone life when ur own has grinded to crumbles won't do u well ooo.

Ok sounds reasonable but the rub is this supposedly a god saying this message for future generations, how does he not know that the picture of a tree will be vastly different down the line? When I say tree do you picture a shrub?

Was He speaking to the future generations or the current generation He was addressing? So, how do you want His audience to understand if He speaks in the future? Your reasonings... You're very intelligent indeed.
