Giraldo: Did the Lazarus' resurrection violated any known variables ?

That depends, was Lazarus really dead ?

Giraldo: How about the parting of the Red Sea ?

Not necessarily. There is a theory which explains the parting of the seas
by a combination of winds and bathymetry.

In all of your explanations you keep leaving one thing out: An all
powerful God how created it all.

Giraldo: As one who has been witness to the supernatural power of God, not
only in my life and that of my family and friends but who have actually
watched as
deaf/mute people begin to hear and utter words (where they couldn't
before) and blind (who didn't have any eyeballs in his sockets) people
actually had organs formed and began seen, I have no doubt believing what
God allowed to be written and kept through the centuries for my
edification today. My friend Stephen with liver cancer was raised from
his death bed to live and become a missionary to Latin America.

Wow, now all that is missing is evidence that this is related to a belief
in god and even more importantly that this belief is founded in reality.
After all if this is happening, why not have this scientifically validated
? Hearsay stories from those who have a vested interest somehow does not
sound very scientifically satisfying.

Giraldo: Oh by the way, will the earth be melted away at the end of the
age or this is another prophecy that doesn't rime with science ?

Depends on what the sun will do in the next several billion years. Other
than that I do not believe that there is any scientific foundation for
this 'prophecy' either.
