Quote:"The evidence of God is ubiquitous. It is everywhere,” Dr. Lisle tells Seewald in the video below. "In fact, Roman 1 tells us that God has revealed himself to everyone, and what that means is, there is really no such thing as an atheist."
Despite being a researcher, he says that he has no need to even prove it.
"I don’t really have to give new evidence to a professing atheist," Lisle explains. "All I have to do is expose his suppressed knowledge of God, because you see, in Romans I again, it tells us that the reason that unbelievers profess, you know, they say there’s no God, et cetera et cetera, it’s not because they don’t know Him, it’s because they’re suppressing the truth in unrighteousness. The Bible says."
It must be wonderful to be a creationist - all that funding and you don't have to do anything.
The fact that he has an advanced degree in astrophysics and yet is a young earth creationists demonstrates that he has completely wasted his time and education. He used to work for Answers in genesis, but apparently wasn't fruitcake enough for them, so he now works for ICR. All of which tells me that the only reason he is actually working for any of these people is because he couldn't get a mainstream science job, because he is way too fruitcake for main stream science.
Anyone who has an advanced degree in astrophysics understands the velocity of light in a vacuum, and how it travels across the universe, and that the travel time for light emitted from objects very far away from us refutes the notion that the universe is young. To claim otherwise, particularly when one has an advanced degree in astrophysics, is a perfect example of the willful ignorance of these people.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
