Ok...
Apparently the 6 literal day creation believers have to take a hit with this comet.

It has a 6800 year track... something that the math definitely shows and can't be explained away.

Earth history is only 6000 years at the most expanded timeline....4,000 before Jesus and 2,000 after.

Soooo

How can a comet be on a return track that is 800 years too much?

Simple,you are being lied to about the comet.
I am guessing that you really don't understand the calculus used to understand the orbital paths that are in the universe.

Even the ancient Egyptians could predict eclipses...(similar mathematics)

It's not like it's really up to be changed anytime soon. 2+2=4 has been true for millenia now.

I am guessing that you don't believe the earth was created,and place your trust in a bunch of bozos with degrees.
Nope...
My concept of the big bang theory is that God Said it and BANG there it was.

But since the sun wasn't created until the fourth day....a day would have been an unmeasurable amount of time as we would measure it.

The earth is about 4.5 billion years old. It’s a fantasy to believe the earth is 6000 years old.
I'm not sure that I'm willing to stake my life on that number either.

Evening and Morning frame the night time...a poetic fashion of saying that God hid how exactly He made the Earth.

Lol Well astronomers And geologists know how the earth was made. It’s not a secret . And nowadays you can just google it. The Scientific version of the age of the earth and how the earth is formed is demonstrated through evidence. Not some silly freemasonry fantasy

there are at least 2 geologists on CF . You could ask them for the details

Why would we want to trust those that support the traditions of men?

When you look into space you’re actually looking back in time. When you look at the sun you’re seeing it as it was 8 minutes earlier. It’s because light takes time to travel over distance. Light leaving the surface of the sun take 8 minutes to hit your retina. Light from Alpha Centauri which is the closest naked eye star , takes 4 minutes to arrive here. Astronomers can see back 13.1 billion years . Stars that old don’t have any elements above iron. (Yes they can tell the chemical make up of stars even ones we can’t reach.)

because science works . The same chemistry , physics and astronomy that point out the extreme age of the earth and of the universe is the same chemistry physics and astronomy that govern the ability to make your computer or cell phone. We use Einstein’s theory of relativity to govern our GPS system. The ideas of creationism especially the young earth nonsense don’t work . That why creationist organizations rely on lies, disinformation and fear mongering to get people to believe them because they don’t have evidence for their claims

You do realize that you can see the moon during the day about half the time . The moon spins just very slowly. It’s only mumbo jumbo to people who are scientifically illiterate. People who understand basic middle school science concepts DO Understand some scientific terminology

The math also shows nearly 15 billion years of Universe. How is this more of a hit?

Fact is, it may be both --15 billion from one point of view and 6 thousand from another.

Which is why the teaching of the one Church founded by Jesus Christ, to which He promised the fullness of God's truth until the end of time, never conflicts with natural truths revealed by God, Truth cannot conflict with truth.

I'm not taking a stand on 6000 years here one way or the other... but this is just silly.

If creation was 6000 years ago you don't think God could have created this comet on whatever part of its orbit He wanted? You're just assuming that the comet was created as far away from Earth as possible? You realize that an orbit doesn't have a beginning and end, right?

btw, I got some amazing photos of the comet tonight!

why does everything have to be scientific? Science is something to be discarded.
That's your take away? You know Jesus can heal and deliver you from all this. You just need to ask, seek and knock and He'll be there.

God can design anything to work anyway he would like. Science backs a creator. And a creator can create science. Men are fallable and sometimes we get things wrong. Our knowledge is limited no matter how smart we think we are. We will never know what God does while we roam in this earth.

Not so,the earth is about 6000 years old.

Is the earth 6000 years old or is mankind 6000 years old? Just asking, could the earth predate man by eons? Not taking a position here, just asking a question that begs to be asked.

Only God knows? Are you calling him a liar because your limited thinking won't allow for things you cannot explain?
