Christianity and the 10 Commandments

If you'd like to retain GR or SR you're going to have to make a case for them firmly rooted in scripture. Unless, perish the thought, you can't.

(and yes, I know you'd rather jump all over the place arguing anything except the idiocy you've offered as support of your narrative, I'd just like to see a little focus...is that unfair?)

That's not evidence. Einstiens theory of relativity though may be used in cosmology is not firm evidence that it's true.
Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

Precisely, and you are miles away from Galileo's thought. The fact that he was christian never got in the way of the evidence he has found. Yet, dogmas like yours tried to shun him.

Again, you don't even know an infinitesmal part of cosmology, and being ignorant of it, doesn't make you right. You can't prove ignorance wrong, that'd be absurd old boy.

Oh, I see, well, care to give me a shortlist of the evidence for BB cosmology, and then maybe a short list of which bits of that category you would like to take issue with? Then, maybe, a shortlist of all the science you don't want to be bullshit, and a short list of all of the science you do want to be bullshit?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Tell me why are our satellite clocks fast compared to earth clocks? Come on. It's because gravity effects time too. Not limited to black holes though they do have the most gravity and thus would slow time down more.

For anyone that cares except chiapet, velocity and gravity ARE the only two things that effect time and in a sense it is only velocity. By saying that (and I know it isn't strictly correct), the reasoning is that the satellites in LEO are in freefall. Someone else can do the math if they want but the force of gravity really isn't that much different from the surface in LEO. That is also why astronauts in LEO are weightless.

I asked first. If you have no evidence of this theory then you must admit that you believe it out of faith. It's either evidence or faith.

I don't believe in anything, and BB Cosmology is bullshit, now why is your narrative correct? Others being wrong does not make you (or anyone) right by default.

(how many times do I have to say this before you miraculously come up with an answer?)

I already presented evidences. One being the equalibrium problem with carbon 14 indicates the earth cannot be older that 50,000 years.

Then I'm off to the next Blot to pledge my allegiance to the Aesir, your arguments are so compelling that I'm forced to worship the Norse gods of creation.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

This is getting good. Now chiachimp is heading straight to saying believing something on faith is stupid. For some reason I don't think the word irony is in his dictionary.
