Hey, nostr:nprofile1qyg8wumn8ghj7um0d3hkxmewdekz7qgcwaehxw309ahx7um5wghxvmt59emkj73wvf5h5tcpz4mhxue69uhkgetnvd5x7mmvd9hxwtn4wvhsqgydxj7jgv3yp3trw9628kcerput4gwpxwhvwwdkfgnyyk05zjlr9vajh9wk ,

I just discovered your series on Genesis today. Thanks for writing it up, and providing some good references for us to dig into.

I'm responding now for a few reasons; I also noticed a post of yours in which you express an interest and willingness to dialog, discuss, and debate viewpoints. I appreciate that, because there are things I've been learning from Scripture that seem to fall outside of "conventional orthodox doctrine" that I believe are of considerable importance to the ongoing health of the church, and I hope (over time) to bring some of them to your attention for possible discussion.😀

But I wanted you to know that I, too, am a "young earth creationist." You seem to already be aware of Russell Humphreys ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell_Humphreys ) and his work in this area?

I also wish to share a link to a fictional story in a series I've been writing, set in the antediluvian world. I am persuaded that pre-flood man very likely had developed advanced technologies that were utterly destroyed in the flood.

If you find an occasion to read my story, I would love to hear your response:

Sounds interesting. Hopefully I can find time to take a look this weekend. I've also wondered about possible advanced technology in the antediluvian world. Of course their advances may have gone in a completely different direction than our own.

I do like Russel Humphrey's work. His prediction of the magnetic field of Uranus was epic. He has an interesting theory on starlight, but although I liked it when I first heard it, I think Dr. Harnett's theory is more likely the right answer.

I'm always open to considering new ideas, but the Bible is always my firm foundation.

YES!

Scripture is my sourcebook; I will always believe it preferentially rather than my lying eyes...😁💯

I finally got around to reading your story. I like it very much. I'll be interested in reading the whole thing when it is finished. The GitCitadel group is working on a library app/relay/thing that will allow easy publishing of books on NOSTR. You could post when they finish it. I believe it will be called GC-Alexandria.

Hi, nostr:npub1356t6fpjysx9vdchfg7mryv83w4pcye6a3eeke9zvsje7s2tuv4s4k805u!

Thank you for reading...🙏🏻 I'm glad you liked my story.😆 And I'm excited to hear about future book publishing opportunities.🚀 Do you have any links to that group and their work?🤔

Here's one more story in the antediluvian series that I think of as "the other bookend" because it takes place shortly before the universal flood:

She might have an idea how long till it is finished, but all of the people working on it also have other jobs and they are perfectionists that won't release it till it is ready.;

Sure. It's done by #[4], but it's not the first product we're planning on releasing, so it'll take a half a year, or so, until a beta version is out.

Thank you, nostr:npub1m4ny6hjqzepn4rxknuq94c2gpqzr29ufkkw7ttcxyak7v43n6vvsajc2jl, for the link to your working group; and though it took a minute, the significance of "Alexandria" has finally registered in my at times discouragingly slow brain.🤣

Your project looks uber-cool.🚀🫂😁

Thanks...🙏🏻 I'd welcome any news nostr:npub1m4ny6hjqzepn4rxknuq94c2gpqzr29ufkkw7ttcxyak7v43n6vvsajc2jl might care to share.😆👍

I'm in no rush, though...😃

I do have a series on surfing that is close to book length, and another set in the New Heavens and New Earth...😜

Also, nostr:npub1356t6fpjysx9vdchfg7mryv83w4pcye6a3eeke9zvsje7s2tuv4s4k805u, your Genesis series has me mulling over the possibility of doing a series on what I've been learning as I read through the New Testament in Greek. Thank you for the inspiration.🙏🏻😁

I'm persuaded that what I have come to regard as "universally deficient English translations" of the Bible have seriously confused the Western world, and derailed the church from its true mission.😢
