I had a dream once where I was visited by someone who i think was an angel. it was imposible to say if it was a man or a woman. if it was a man then he was very beautiful. if it was a woman then she was very strong. i felt love flowing from this angel which is how i knew it was from god. there was no fear or hate.
i was having trouble with my faith at the time. bad things had happened and i wondered if god had left me. this angel said GOD had never abandond me. we spoke for a while. i asked about the age of the earth. this angel told me that science was wrong. but not that it meant to be wrong. science is not evil just wrong. the angel told me that GOD created like it says in the BIBLE and that the earth is 6,000 years old.
That is how I KNOW that I am right when I believe that the Earth is young.

You think it was an angel, you couldn't determine it's gender, and you admit it was a dream . Why do you think this has anything to do with the real world?

Hmph. I've got one better. In my dream last night I had fantastic sex on another continent. I now know, thanks to maleparent, that this will indeed come true. http://www.fstdt.com/weekly/article.php?id_article=150
"I had a dream once where I was visited by someone who i think was an angel. it was imposible to say if it was a man or a woman." You had a dream about Ann Coulter. oh boy, that must've been embarrassing for you!
"if it was a man then he was very beautiful. if it was a woman then she was very strong."
You did! You did! You fucking had a dream about Ann Coulter.
"i felt love flowing from this angel which is how i knew it was from god. there was no fear or hate."
Oh wait... No you didn't, my bad!
Sorry!
Hadanelith Dante's Virgil: Hey, me too. Amazing how that works, ain't it?
I once had a dream that I died and found out that the afterlife was run by a massive bureaucracy, and that I had to spend an entire day before my afterlife was processed. The waiting room was a shut-down carnival, and there were cakes, cookies, and other sweets offered. I knew I had died as an atheist, but it turned out I was right; at the very minimum, no gods were present in the dream. It turned out that there was a hell, but only people who ate all the sweets in the waiting room were sent there. There was no lake of fire; "hell" consisted of a garage full of junk occupied by six or seven really fat kids (the damned), a rather surly clown (the devil), and a black bird. (Just some bird.)
I keep having a dream where I need to piss really badly. And then I wake up, and damn, if isn't true. So this proves either that dreams are true, or I drink too much beer.
I had a dream that my grandma was being boiled in a big pot by cartoon cannibals. She wouldn't let go of her purse, though, just stood there in the pot with the damn thing under her arm.
Dante's Virgil: Damn you, heretic! All praises to Her Invisible Pinkness, May She Never Be Shod!
I'm always amazed that no matter how much time passes, fundies always insist the earth is 6000 years old. Not 5998, not 6014, always 6000.
Maleparent, thank you for sharing that with us. You have convinced me. Why have I been looking so long at reason and evidence and facts when I could just chuck all that and have faith. I'm going to sell all my possessions, like Jesus says and dedicate myself to spreading this gospel.
So we should re-write all the science textbooks, ignore centuries of collected evidence and abandon the view that the rest of the industrial world takes for granted because you had a dream about an androgynous individual?
Yeah, we'll get right on that.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
