The dating of the earth is wrong.

The Geological paradigm is incorrect because its foundation is based on cosmology and the formation of mythical planets (space balls)

Until a paradigm shift occurs (which it wont IMO) satan continues his deception until the final conflict.
Of course it’s wrong. God stretched out the heavens. Clocks slow as acceleration increases, radioactive decay rates slow too. But since they use the slower rate of today to calculate what happened faster in the past, they of course come to the wrong conclusion.

Science has shown clocks slow under acceleration, but yet they refuse to apply time dilation as one calculates into the past, even if they claim to follow science. No, the science is sound, just their refusal to follow it.

The accelerating twin aged slower. The twin at home ages faster than the accelerating twin. But yet knowing this, and knowing the universe began accelerating, they refuse to apply time dilation corrections.

The giant fusion gas balls of "make believe" don't fall to the earth.

Revelation 6:13
And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.
I totally agree; but those stars could be something else.

For example, I personally believe the star that the wise men* followed was a hologram that only they could see.

In other words, not a sun, per se.

* Not "Homo sapiens" type wise men. Real wise men.

I'll admit that scientists like to use any cosmology that goes against what God did in Genesis 1 ... most notably those goofy pictures of Babylonian and Hebrew cosmologies drawn, by those who are against the Bible ... but don't you think refusing to call nine wandering stars "planets" is just a bit off the path?
Some people are afraid of science for no reason. The same God who penned the Bible penned the universe. It’s not the science that is wrong it’s the interpretations of it.

The things made declare His glory, what could be more glorious than an entire universe running like clockwork? Not randomly, mind you, but with such precision we can write laws to describe it, so precise is it.

I'm not afraid, but frustrated with the deception.

People heap up teachers to satisfy their itching ears.

And satan has plenty of those working for him, whether they know it or not.

I'd be more comfortable to separate God's creation from the false paradigms.

Planet earth = earth.

Planets = wandering star a,b,c,d,e, etc

I totally agree; but those stars could be something else.

For example, I personally believe the star that the wise men* followed was a hologram that only they could see.

Have any material I can read? I'm interested in doing a bit of reading on it.​

Or angels cast down to the earth into pits of darkness? After all, they are referred to as stars too. What could shake the heavens more than a war in heaven itself?

And a war broke out in heaven.....

And yet it just keeps on ticking, the earth just keeps on spinning..... the sun just keeps on shining, and will untill commanded not to.

Remember, God will descend to earth to dwell with mankind, all will continue forever.

Context talks of the moon, sun, stars, mountains, heaven


Revelation 6

12 And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

13 And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

14 And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

Are you sure the earth is spinning?

New heaven and new earth after the final judgment.

Metal keeps on rusting, disease keeps on spreading, people keep on dying, scientists keep on ... well, nevermind.

And the universe is going to disintegrate with a "great noise" and be put back together into a New Heavens and a New Earth.

Entropy is "heat death," and God calls death an "enemy."

Thanks, got me to look that up :)

2 Peter 3:7

7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.

--

2 Peter 3:10
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

It's like a bad joke: A flat earther, a geocentrist, a moon landing hoaxer, and a young earth creationist walk into the bar. The bar tender says, 'What can I get for you sir?'.
By the end of the evening:
The flat Earther gets so drunk he falls of the end of the bar.
The geocentrist gets angry because the other patrons ignore him and he feels the world should revolve around him.
The moon hoaxer gets aggressive and is involved in a dust up.
The young Earth creationist is the only sober one, because he can't decide what kind of alcohol to have.

So what would be the equivalent of the "elephant in my bedroom" as pertains to a global flood?

What would scientists expect to find?
It's quite a long list, but there's a good summary here.

(Remember though, it has to jive with the Scriptural account. Don't just take "global flood" and leave the rest. Such as: vegetation present right after the flood, how the Ark got into the mountains of Ararat from thousands of miles away, etc. In other words, don't compartmentalize and search for watermarks that God obviously removed.)
Clearly, if you're going to claim that God interfered after the event to remove evidence, there's little point describing the lack of evidence for the event - God could have erased all evidence that it happened.

The objections to this kind of argument are much the same as for God creating a universe with apparent history, or Last Thursdayism.

Why anyone would assume that is beyond me.

Some people just won’t accept that when God stretched out the heavens, clocks and decay rates began to slow. Just as we know scientifically this happens.

But since some refuse to apply time dilation corrections, using the slower rate of radioactive decay today, to decay that happened faster in the past, they of course arrive at the wrong answer of age.

It’s quite obvious that to the accelerating twin the stationary twin decays faster. The accelerating twin would be wrong if he used his clocks to try to determine the age of the stationary twin. We already know he was wrong.

As a matter of fact, he couldn’t get anything correct. He thought his clocks had not changed, that the stationary twin was the one in motion, and that the stationary twins clocks ticked slower, when they never changed at all.

So you want me to what, accept the conclusion of the twin in motion that couldn’t get anything correct about time at all?

An entire group of individuals who refuse to consider the evidence that such might be the case and who base their worldview on what they imagine to be pleasant and ignore the evidence that contradicts that view.

This sounds to me like a description of a meteor shower, like the Leonid meteor storms of 1833 and 1966.
