'...the spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters, bringing order out of chaos.'

This is exactly what I was trying to say there on that underlined section of that post. I wrote that without knowing anything about that Bible verse. Actually I've never been that religious and never read the Bible, the book itself I mean. All my religious activity is limited to reading religious article almost exclusively from that newspaper which I subscribe to. The daily guide only features the New Testament parts but the description sections sometimes quote from other parts of the Bible as shown in the link.

This is a good example of what I've been saying, that Bible shouldn't be taken literally. The description 'bringing order out of chaos' IMO means that nature as we see it now wouldn't have formed or evolved in such an intricately precise manner by just leaving it to nature or by some haphazard trial-and-error method as the evolutionalist would want us to believe, but instead must have formed by some guided force I talked about on the above post.
If you read the bible From Aramaic straight into English (the preceeding launguage to Hebrew or Greek) it makes alot more sence with its deeper meanings.
You have to know the immediate areas intimate history too if you are to try and take things literally.

"I shall come as a thief in the night" literally from the times means I shall be banging and crashing cymbols and swords with torches held high in the sky and you will hear me comming for a long time before my arrival.
That is how thieves used to come in the night through the desert in those times.

It has come through from Aramaic to Hebrew, Greek,latin,German into English. If you think 4 languages of translation cant change some things.... then Lyle has a massive Southern Bridge he wants to sell you.

Much of the original information on creation of Earth and its many different forms of humans and time structures was written in Summarian picture form and hiroglyphs prior to any sscript writing too.
Very interesting about different languages. I wish I had the time and the luxury to study them. I think the Revelations chapter would be an excellent one to study deeply because it is wrought with full of sybolism and I believe it is about the future. If anyone can interpret that correctly, I think we will know what's ahead.

This is an excellent thread, Andre; just wish I had more time. I'd be talking about your post yesterday, there at few blocks back, about cycles, waves etc., when I have time. I believe our world which is nothing more than an energy mass moves as a wave. Waves moves in cycles and that explains why certain things repeat themselves and why they come together. So there is no coincidence in this world, it's just a cycle.
I think the cycle is about to reverse and we are about head back and shake off all what we have humanly built this up to be. The universe is in a situation soon that will have us plummenting out of a very fast turn.
Its taken thousands of years on this slow arc to get to here and its been painful. Now we are in the tighter part of and end curve (THE quikening); After we will head back and it will be joyful. Watch for many mentally falling off on the tightest part of the curve though!
