The Libraries of Alexandria all over again.

Dotdude - I used to live in Alexandria, LA. "Coonass" was used fairly often as both a term of disparagement but also of endearment. I never quite got used to it, myself.

So, since I believe that God exists and that God desires to make himself known, I don't find it implausible to believe that God would have willed, or guided the process of recording the books of the New Testament, even though they were historically written at different times by different people during the first century. There is evidence that the canon of Scripture we have in the New Testament now was already in place long before these councils met to confirm the canon. The early church needed to confirm the canon of Scripture because there were many false writings and forgeries that were circulating from groups other than the proto-orthodox Christians. Historians have a Christian record, written by Athanasius, the bishop of Alexandria, that is the earliest recording of the entire list of the 27 books of the New Testament canon that we have today. It was written in the year 367 C.E. and also has a proscription of heretical books. The canon could have been confirmed earlier than 367 C.E. but this is the earliest document that historians have found naming all 27 books. Irenaus of Lyon was an anti-Gnostic church father that already make mention in 170 C.E. of part of the canon being authoritative: the 4 gospels.

It's all a bit of history repeating therealblankman, I liken it to the burning of Library of Alexandria.

Hey , the albums and viddies and volumes available, to our fingies, as the result of anyone who inspires that gush, is enough to inspire as well, the rebuild project for the library at Alexandria.-- ....that's after killing the offspring of whosoevers' idea it was to burn that dive down in the first place...
A small reminder of what ist it is, you wield, by lurking here.. and now.

....Hell yeah, Can't ya see this coming, and truth being stranger than contrivences, it'll probly' go down with some hacker units taking Oswald's role, as skilled dupes.
...Didn't the fuckin' Muslims destroy the Library at Alexandria??? Kings would have destroyed other kingdoms for the power induviduals have at their fingertips today-Anywhere there is a threat of power being usurped, the finite and linear types go crazy!

(I've had two radio stations broadcasting from my home, on the FM band, at acceptable outputs...never had an incident-the FCC knows where to fine me!
( No violations yet, Probly' cause I only have a handfull of rural neighbors who can pick me up!!)

OMGZ HUMAN HAX

But seriously, Is it hard to believe that perhaps like we had our Albert Einstein and Isaac Newton, the ancient world would have the similar great scholars that would make these constructions possible? Human progression has really taken place because we publish works of knowledge, preserve them and pass them on.

We know that we have lost so many old world works of science and knowledge, lost in place like the library of Alexandria. Who knows what people might have deduced by then via ancient scholars? As to the large structures and alingment of the stars? Those were the world's wonders at the time. Why wouldn't one worship it, their mystery must have baffled these ancient peoples just like they do us now.

And Mars-Earth connections? Cheap shot using the old photographs that make it look like a face and pyramids. That same site has been photographed countless times showing no evidence of structures just natural formations. I don't think the drones they have at mars would be racing towards a large crater looking for possible evidence of microscopic life if there was evidence of a intelligent structures on mars.

I don't understand why we have to always say we relied on someone else to progress. Still entertianing watching.
