I sent you you a website response because quite frankly, sir, I'm finished giving what is sacred to the dogs on this thread! You have long ago counted yourself unworthy of eternal life, so as the Good Book says:
Rev 22:11a
11 Let him who does wrong continue to do wrong; let him who is vile continue to be vile...
NIV
Far be it from me to stand in your way of reaping what you have been sowing!

2 Peter 3: This point must not be overlooked, dear friends. In the Lord's eyes, one day is as a thousand years and a thousand years area as a day.
Doesn't that sound like in Genesis each day could be 1,000 or even millions of years?

Only if you want to play footloose and free with sound hermeneutical principles.
However, as pointed out previously (often in fact) the context of Genesis 1 doesn't really lend itself to that kind of interpretation, since the text actually numbers each day of creation. And whenever a writer does this in scripture, it means a literal dusk to dawn day.
Also, it's not how the writer meant it or the original audience would have understood Genesis, most especially since the sabbath commandment is grounded in God's work of creation.

Sorry, did not realize you posted selections recently.The question is how many of your picks before the race actually won? On your original "long shot road to riches thread", you did not pick, and many complained you did not provide selections beforehand.
Ok so you made some recently
You went 0/6 on 3/21/2019
Have you tabulated your results?
I will wait for you to give us your overall r.o.i. and w% over a few dozen picks before the race.
What is stopping you from Gus's contest?

None of my recent selections were posted before the race won. I posted all them after the results were in. 
And don't worry about my ROI. Worry about your own. Besides, mine is so obscene it would cause your head to spin off your shoulders.

Didn't you see? Boxcar has been busy with "church activities" lately. The coronavirus has created a great deal of "activity" in Boxcar's church.

Actually the virus has created a big opportunity for various in-home ministries to people, especially the elderly in our congregation. And my wife and I are involved in one of those ministries.

Meanwhile why can't you tell us your win% and r.o.i. ?
Over how many races?
Is your gambling anti-biblical? You did say it was "obscene"

I don't broadcast my stats in the public square, thank you.
Thankfully, the "obscene" part only extends to the profits.

I counted approximately 75 posts on the Selections forum since 2017. Are those picks a fair representation of your "obscene" winnings?

I have no idea because I didn't keep a tally of those posts. But the number does sound high. I don't recall posting that much "over there".

I was wondering if any of these guys were in the hospitals, healing/praying over covid-19 sufferers. I haven't heard about it if they are.
But OBVIOUSLY, some businesses who are doing badly during the shutdown should consider opening a Ministry? Seems rather lucrative.
