Who was Cain worried about?

[Openly Curious]

I do not understand this quote as it was not one of your own quotes but cardcaptor quote in which I had responded to in an earlier post as I did not agree with his assessment of it. How do you stand on what he said in the above quote?

What don't you agree with in my post?

I answered this in post #38 if you haven't read it yet as that was the quote in which you had quoted instead of None.

thanks

Where's your "validation"? Mine is the written word of God.

just wanted a simple clarification was all.

I have the slightest idea what "validation" you are asking from me here?

I believe the word as it's written down and it's good enough for me without proof. Are you saying you believe Psalm 90:10 as the average lifespan? or, the Genesis scripture that the average lifespan is 120 years old?

I don't believe you answered these questions from before.

God is not who "reduced" man's lifespan to 70-80, man is who reduces it by unhealthy living.

Nowhere in that verse does it even indicate that God reset the age limit to 70-80. If you'll notice, the verse in the Psalm was Moses complaining because of the terrible conditions all around them. Moses is not speaking for God there, he was speaking to God.

He even says further down, "teach us to number our days aright...". He was clearly asking God for help, not speaking on behalf of God, as the verse in Genesis where it says "Then the LORD said...".

I do not understand this quote as it was not one of your own quotes but cardcaptor quote in which I had responded to in an earlier post as I did not agree with his assessment of it. How do you stand on what he said in the above quote?

I feel very bad about your confusion problems and, if I thought it would actually help you, I would.

You mean to tell me that you couldn't simply tell me what you meant when you said, Where's your "validation"? Mine is the written word of God. Is it better for me to ask and let you give me what you meant by it or is it best for me to just take a guess at what you meant and let me interpret it however and have to pay the piper later on if I get it wrong. I was trying not to let that happen. I question you feeling bad for me.

You say it's me, I say it's you.

I'm perfectly willing to call it a complete lack of communication between the two of us and also,

obviously, a difference in opinions.

You want to continue this little game, continue with someone else.

Have a nice day.

I wasn't saying anything was you I simply asked you to tell me what you meant. It's only a lack of communication because you want tell me and I am left to guess at what you meant. I didn't even know we had a difference of opinions as you seemed to agree and be lifting up the scripture in Psalm 90:10 before when I brought it into the thread what changed.

I assure you I am not playing a little game with you I seriously wanted to know what you meant. All I know is that I think it is really bad when another person posts and expects others never to question anything they have to say in what they posted. Why is it that you can question others so and not want to be questioned yourself I mean you can't have a discussion without communication and I would rather ask someone what they mean than guess at it and get it wrong.

WOW all I did was ask a question in which I say I am sorry for but I was in no way playing a game.

At least if you would have attempted to answer me we would have stayed on topic

This thread has ceased to talk about the issue, and is now really an issue between individuals. It has run its course, so I am closing it
