Mark - I tried it as well on another list - it will not work. Your concept makes too much sense for someone imbued with science to accept.

There is absolutely no dividing line with "this kind of truth over here" and "that kind of truth over there". Granted, there are more important and less important truths for us here in this life, but even so, while the Book of Mormon is indispensible, so is the law of gravity. So it's all one with God. The concept of non-overlapping magesteria has no place with God. His knowledge embraces it all. And that's why some of us on this list don't care much for the notion of NOMA. > > ========= Mark Gregson [EMAIL PROTECTED] ========= > > > -- > _______________________________________________ > Get your free email from http://mymail.operamail.com > > Powered by Outblaze > > //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // > /// ZION LIST CHARTER: Please read it at /// > /// http://www.zionsbest.com/charter.html /// > //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// / > > > ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /// ZION LIST CHARTER: Please read it at /// /// http://www.zionsbest.com/charter.html /// ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ==^================================================================ This email was sent to: archive@jab.org EASY UNSUBSCRIBE click here: http://topica.com/u/?aaP9AU.bWix1n.YXJjaGl2 Or send an email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] T O P I C A -- Register now to manage your mail! http://www.topica.com/partner/tag02/register ==^================================================================
