The Creationists' Nightmare

[Godscreated]

Such as?

Like an old earth and old universe. Why do the ~40 different isotopes for measuring the age of the earth tell us it's much older than 6 000 years? Why does it seem like the light from stars have been travelling for millions, if not, billions of years to get to us?

Since I'm not God I can't give you what He did or why He did it, I rely on creation scientist and other scientist that I personally know. One thing I read lately was when God created, the earth was at the edge of a black hole were time would seem to be in days and the time farther away would cover some great amount of time. I've not had time to look into it further, I'm going to try soon if time permits.

If the planet Earth was at the edge of a black hole you wouldn't be here today to spout such nonsense. I mean, have you any idea how absolutely ridiculous that statement makes you sound?

Please, read some proper science and not the pseudo babble that you are obviously relying on.

I recently read that the earth was once a ball of pizza dough, and that it was that-namely, its constituent material that led to the theories of it ever being flat.

[Norfolk And Chance]

You sound like a badly scratched record.

Yeah, but it's a good one.

As opposed to that B side of an old Donnie and Marie album that GC karaokes to.

That's along the lines of the argument that says time hasn't always been constant.

On creation scientists, there's many that believe God created everything but not as the Bible says i.e. it shouldn't be taken literally.

This is an article by such a Christian scientist. Worth a read. (He argues for an older earth).

Uh, yeah:

If additional confidence in this data is desired, it may be helpful to note that the amount of carbon-14 found in a timber from a tunnel in Jerusalem thought to have been built by Hezekiah is approximately the same as the amount found in tree ring number 2700, which places its ring-counting age where expected from Biblical records if each ring equals one year. Even better, consider the Dead Sea Scrolls—the book of Isaiah in particular. Isaiah 53 describes Christ in such detail that Bible critics have long argued that it must have been written after the time of Christ. The amount of carbon-14 in the Isaiah scrolls is equal to or less than the amount in tree ring number 2100, meaning carbon-14 confirms its before-Christ historicity.


I don't think the agenda of that site is truly scientific.

Show me the fossils please. Until that the platypus was created.

I sure wish stupid was more painful sometimes.

It's an apologetic website that takes science for what it truly is and then comes to reasonable conclusions based on that. I don't see a problem with this.

I almost puked after reading this.
