The Tower of Babel

[Minimalist]

I'll retract the comment if you are willing to admit publicly that your bible is a pile of shit.  I've been telling you that for years.  Perhaps it finally sunk in?

Why would mainstream scientists be "unwilling to accept" something that is evident? Evidence is kinda their whole schtick.

I'll give you some time to fabricate a conspiracy theory if you need to. And trust me. You need to.

What are you talking about? Science constantly changes in accordance with new evidence (eventually), mainstream science was unwilling to accept Newton's theory that light consisted of particles, yet here we are...

New theories, especially ones that break the old paradigm, are often considered "false until proven true."

The reason that Newton's particle theory was rejected is because evidence pointed to light being a wave. The old paradigm had no theoretical room for wave-particle duality. But scientists didn't figure wave-particle duality out later by consulting cranks. They followed the evidence until it lead to a paradigm shift. Scientists are open to paradigm shifts as they can be. The article you quote called this "unwillingness"... at best, it was a poor word choice.

Also, in Huggy's defense, the subject has come up elsewhere in the forums and he has said he doesn't subscribe to YEC-ism. So it's unfair to throw the 6,000 year thing in his face.

I'd like to know what Huggy thinks a structure being capable of focusing electromagnetic radiation means. I don't know. Does he?

[LadyForCamus]

Uh, yeah... we're here and you're a creatard.  Where does "Adam" and your 6,000 year old universe fit in?  Or did you forget that part.

First show where I claimed the universe was 6000 years old...

Lol @ Huggy pretending he cares about science.

Please, I've been debunking atheists here with science from the beginning, did you forget it's my position that science doesn't disprove anything in the bible.

I asked you guys to provide evidence of science disproving the bible, guess what? none of you could do it, so lol all you want...

(I'll be more than happy to post receipts of the above if you desire)

Your reasoning skills are as bad as your understanding of how science works, lol.  No one is obligated to disprove your silly book, Huggy.  The Bible is a heaping pile of assertions.  Onus is on you to demonstrate they’re true.

According to these researchers the Sphinx was constructed atleast 800,000 years ago.

And with this Huggy, you have just told the whole world everything it needs to know about you.

All that means is that he's a cherry-picker.  Which we already knew.  I love it when xhristards decide which parts of their "inerrant" scripture are not inerrant!

As per usual, don't even try to refute the research, just engage in adhominem...


What are you guys afraid of?

I didn't write the paper dummy, it was written by two geologists, who detailed scientifically why they came to the conclusion they did. My point to Minimalist was that the Great Pyramid was far older than the other two, which would explain why they don't have the same properties. Whether it's older by 800,000 years or 10,000 the point stands.

*edit*
I should add that the fact that Jormungandr kudosing that post makes her one of the biggest hypocrites of the forums.

Oh so now I'm cherry picking?

I'll wait for you to provide one scripture that states the earth is 6000 years old.

I won't hold my breath...

Shame.
