Creation & EvolutionForum for the discussion of this important topic. This forum is open to non-believers. There is a Christians-only forum in the Christians-only section too.
No, you're talking about a mechanism that existed in a different past. What mechanism would that be?
A different universe. And all the other differences that entails in the atomic and molecular levels. We lived a thousand years, and there was no decay, and the laws of this physical only universe did not apply. In other words, you can't know the different process by your present science. That doesn't mean you can assume away with the temporary universe present, into that past either. You need a past that was the same as the present to make any of your ideas make any sense at all. And you just can't have it.

But from your statements, you seem to believe that the old past before the split affected the physical only universe. So shouldn't we be able to measure this so-called different past just fine?

Making up a pretend past where the laws of physics do not apply and where basic logic breaks down just so that you can avoid the implications of modern science just isn't rational. You keep pretending as if this makes any sense. There is absolutely no reason to think the past was substantially different from the present, and that somehow this mythical past could account for the unity of life.
You're living in a fantasy world of pixies and candycane rainbows.

Apparently not, as it was spiritual and physical. Science does not know a thing about the spiritual.

Nonsense. You can't tell us a thing about the state of the past, why would I even consider your opinion?????

As explained, the nonsense is all yours. You've failed to provide a reason why anybody would accept the absurd, utterly unparsimoneous notion that some magical "different past" could resolve all the problems with creationism. It's just plain illogical and silly. Might as well believe in the easter bunny.

But it should, if your assertion were correct. Because if there is no evidence for a different past, then it would mean that the one initiating this spiritual-physical split would have to explicitly mold creation so extremely perfectly so as to look as if it all came about without any creator at all. Why would any creator do such a thing?

Not true, because one might as well believe in the bunny as your same past. If it was the bunny againt the present science, science wins. If it goes against the assumption the past was the same and the same laws and science applied, it loses!
You are left with no proof whatsoever that the bible past and future are not the actual ones in existance. None. No science. So you are in a position to disbelieve all you like, yes, but do it quietly, as you have no science to back you up.
But, as I said there is a thread for talking about the past, why harp on it here??? Bottom line, you simply cannot back it up, it is impossible.

That is your idea, nothing to do with how it works. The seperation is like taking away something out of the mix. Something that your science admittedly can't deal with. If you think about it,a ll you are saying is why did He make it look like it is, when our dreams of a pst, based on how it now is, say it always was like this!

Absent a compelling argument that the laws of physics were different in the past, science will accept the most parsimoneous explanation that they have always been the same. Your really shouldn't try to pretend you understand enough science to claim it agrees with your bizarre notions.
