You couldn’t sum it up into a paragraph or two for us could you
Here, i’ll give it a try. OP thinks he is a bible scholar. He copies and pastes clips from the bible and thinks, “this will get them to see the bible the way i do”, and then you come in and say “that’s not what it means at all” then three or four of the regulars come in, each saying something like “ no, this quote from the bible contradicts what all of you are saying”. And they are all right. The bible is a great tool to use if you need to make yourself seem really smart and important to people who believe in the bible. All you have to do is open it up to any page, read aloud to a group of believers, and they all start treating you like you thought of that # yourself. Like you’re a bible scholar.

THE MAGIC OF THE THREAD
In the predawn hours of January 4, the first meteor shower of the year, the Quadrantids, will reach its peak. Rates this morning will range from 60 to 120 shooting stars an hour when seen from a dark location. This year, a waning crescent moon should provide ideal conditions for seeing even faint meteors under clear skies. Partial solar eclipse—January 5-6 For some lucky sky-watchers, the year’s first new moon will seem to take a bite out of the sun. The partial solar eclipse will begin at sunrise in Asia, starting in China at 7:34 a.m. local time (23:34 UT on January 5) and moving across Japan, Korea, and Russia. Four-and-a-half hours later, it will cross Alaska’s Aleutian Islands at local sunset (3:48 UT on January 6). People in the Americas, Africa, and Europe will unfortunately miss the sky show.

January 6 - New Moon. The Moon will located on the same side of the Earth as the Sun and will not be visible in the night sky. This phase occurs at 01:28 UTC. This is the best time of the month to observe faint objects such as galaxies and star clusters because there is no moonlight to interfere.
January 6 - Venus at Greatest Western Elongation. The planet Venus reaches greatest eastern elongation of 47 degrees from the Sun. This is the best time to view Venus since it will be at its highest point above the horizon in the morning sky. Look for the bright planet in the eastern sky before sunrise.
January 6 - Partial Solar Eclipse. A partial solar eclipse occurs when the Moon covers only a part of the Sun, sometimes resembling a bite taken out of a cookie. A partial solar eclipse can only be safely observed with a special solar filter or by looking at the Sun's reflection. The partial eclipse will be visible in parts of eastern Asia and the northern Pacific Ocean. It will be best seen from northeastern Russia with 62% coverage.
January 21 - Total Lunar Eclipse. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes completely through the Earth's dark shadow, or umbra. During this type of eclipse, the Moon will gradually get darker and then take on a rusty or blood red color. The eclipse will be visible throughout most of North America, South America, the eastern Pacific Ocean, western Atlantic Ocean, extreme western Europe, and extreme western Africa.

I Wanted To Thank You For Bashing A Thread About The bible, which, Resides in The Faith, Religion, And Theology Section of The AboveTopSecret Forums, Supposedly Where it Would Be a Designated Place To Discuss The Subject Matter.
You Also Attack The Thread And Discussion Without Any Constructive Criticism, As Well as You Offer Nothing Worthwhile to Contribute To The Discussion or The Content of The Thread And Article, I Just Wanted To Give My Thanksgiving.
I Am Very Grateful, For Your Comment onto My Discussion i Am Trying To Engage in, As Well as, It Was Very Generous of You To Say That, "Op Thinks Hes a Bible Scholar" And "Like You're a Bible Scholar." as a Personal Insult, As If You Were The Judge on Whether or Not i Study The Scriptures.
As Well as The Insult You Provide To Some People Who May Be Interested in The Topic, as if the Comments You Spat onto This Thread was More Worthwhile Than People Engaging into The Subject Matter.
I Will Consider Your Recommendation to Donate The Cash To My Local Atheist Awareness Group, But Unfortunately This Content Was Posted onto An Internet Forum For Free, And I Do Not Expect Any Currency As a Result of This Post.
I Understand if You Have Nothing To Contribute To The Discussion, It Is Okay if You Are Ignorant (lacking knowledge, information, or awareness about something in particular) in The Subject Matter, It Will Just Be Denied.
As Well as To Give Insight And Awareness To The Possibility That "ANGELS", May Be On The Earth From Antiquity to The Present Day.

My interest is in pointing out why this type of thinking is illogical and unhealthy. This fantasy has had quite enough support and has pushed it’s way into far too many government offices. I helped push legislation into my local county which now allows businesses that were previously not allowed to operate on sundays because of a law that was applied to us because people were afraid that some kind of god would be angered if they do business while others were allowed. Religion poisons the mind to reason.

The OP produced a thread on religion, faith, and theology which clearly took some effort more than your response.
I doubt many are world class bible scholars who use an ATS religion, faith, and theology forum but it is here for our use.
Not sure why you are reading religion, faith, and theology threads from your response your interest seems nil.
