So why do you keep trying to say that they are linked?
Planetary Evolution is linked to Chemical Evolution, which then links to Biological Evolution.

All three are under the umbrella of: Cosmic Evolution.

Along with four others: Particulate, Galactic, Stellar, and Cultural.

Okay then.

I'll sick Physics Central on you.

Cosmic Evolution

Are you sure it's not just the same source? The article is by the author of a book on "Cosmic Evolution" published by Harvard University Press.

But, as he says it's just "a loose continuity" of these "evolutions".

Except that it's not.

It's like models of physics for the universe: you can use physics to explain things in general since everything is physics, but you can't use physics just by itself to explain biological evolution, nor can you use physics to explain changes in culture.

You just don't know what you're talking about and you refuse to even imagine that you're wrong about this.

This sub-forum is about the biological kind of evolution, not any other.
If you want to stick with one subset of cosmic evolution (Biological Evolution), knock yourself out.

But don't tell me Pluto has nothing to do with evolution, or I'll sick Harvard on you.

I don't know.

Why would either source put it on their website if they thought it wasn't true?

Let Harvard know.

Unless you think they'll put you in your place.

I don't give a damn about Harvard since you're using their stuff wrong anyway. It's you making erroneous claims and you not having the sense of integrity to admit that you're wrong about them when you've been told repeatedly that you are wrong.

Then go tell Physics Central.

Or or you afraid they'll put you in your place too?

The issue is not with them! It's with you not knowing what you're talking about and you refusing to accept that you are wrong. That's the issue here.

This is probably the first time you've heard of cosmic evolution, and now you feel qualified to tell me I'm misusing it?

I'll bet you even want me to agree with you too, don't you?

Oh, it is definitely not the first time that I've seen you bring up that picture about the various 'evolutions' that you so love to think as a 'gotcha!' for non-Creationists, and you're as wrong then as you are now.

I don't give a rat's hairy butt if you agree with me or not. What I want to see is you actually showing some integrity in the face of you being shown that you're wrong time and time again by admitting that you are wrong. Why is that hard for you?

And I'd like to see Harvard and Physics Central put you guys in your place as well.

For someone with such a low opinion of science and academia as you do, it's amazing that you care about them at all.

Hard for me? LOL
I just assumed that that was a given (but apparently I was wrong).
Evidentally, I was wrong,
Aggie, here it is plain and simple:
  • Where the Bible disagrees with science --- science is wrong.
I can't make it any plainer than that.

If I made any statements to the contrary --- I was wrong.
My Ex-nihilo Challenge
Calm down --- check your reps --- I was wrong. :cool:
Fair enough --- I was wrong --- my apologies.
If so, I was wrong.
Happy now?

I put science on a higher pedestal than atheists can go.

Science is God's way of helping us understand His creation.

And yet you are refusing to admit that you are wrong about your claims made in this thread.
Ain't that a gas.

I'll let Harvard go first.

Then Physics Central.

Then ...

Again, the issue isn't Harvard or Physics Central. It's you being wrong about what they're saying. That's it.

Except that you don't. Your own posts show otherwise.
It's important that you think that, isn't it?

For the record, here is precisely what I believe:

1. Bible says x, Science says x = go with x
2. Bible says x, Science says y = go with x
3. Bible says x, Science says ø = go with x
4. Bible says ø, Science says x = go with x
5. Bible says ø, Science says ø = free to speculate on your own

Prime Directive: Under no circumstances whatsoever is the Bible to be contradicted.
