    YECs, did the universe begin?

    I have answered that question many times if you will look back maybe everytime it has been asked. Yes it matters, to me it matters more than any single argument and maybe all of them. However before I slam the door on a young earth I will continue to keep an open mind. As I have said it has no...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    Thanks I am not qualified to critique these type of arguments. I will give your responses to the scientist that sent them to me and see what he says. I do wish you had given me more of a counter argument rather than a general dismissal for some but I will take what I can get. Was the...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    There is no way I can adress the many points that put forth by 3+ people expecting them. I have limited time and have disussions in other forums as well I would like any rubuttals to the points made before listed below: Age of the earth: (1) James Watt and Mr Newcomb (Inventors of Steam Power...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    It didn't actually state that they worked together it implied they worked in the same type of field and had a common viewpoint. The invention of the steam engine is contreversial but some sources list Watt as the inventor regardless they both advanced the technology of steam power. What does...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    I have to say that the people I have been discussing with in this thread have seemed far less arrogant or condescending that I am used to seeing from evolutionists but it is usually so prevelant I am always expecting it. I appreciate your candor. He should not be completely dismissed solely...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    Papias: I have checked out your point about the King Clone bush and admit that until further checking by me as it stands that rules out my bristlecone pine idea. I want to point out that that is just something I thought of and I do not claim that is what any YEC claims even though they might do...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    How the heck am I supposed to devote enough time to address all this but I will try to answer most anyway. As I have stated evolution doesn't have any impact on my faith only a minor one about a single interpretation and I believe if true that it would be morally neutral itself but have...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    Howdy, There was so many points in that post, if you could point out which one or ones that you are specifically interested in I will try. Or I could use the argument in the post before this one. That all your points have been refuted by creationists so many times that I won't bother (I had to...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    I believe that the mathematics of population growth when taken over a long period of time can incorporate all the aberations that you mentioned. Insurance companies have to the same kind of mathematics to generate their risk levels. Even if population grown estimates I mentioned are wrong by...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    I didn't get this. I have found out where all the confusion about what I believe may have come from. This thread sort of invites young earth creationists to debate, so it was presumed since I responded I was one. I just realised this so I apolagise for my frustration. This one is easy. The...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    Papias. I'm out of time again, but you made some interesting points here that I will look over when I can. I still am curious what yours and others credentials in these fields are. Have a good weekend guys.

    Would you vote for a Mormon...

    I would prefer Newt But I would vote for a mud volcano with a bad attitude rather than get Obama for four more years or however many we would have left as a country.

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    I am not qualified to defend #37. I never said I even believed that theory was true. Why would I accept the challengers conclusions even if I was interested in defending it. I am sure I could provide a scientist that would simply give equally speculative answers as to why the challenger is...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    I know thisis too much stuff but being the source is a phd with a masters and two bachelors in fields from Computer science to nurseing, and is a contributing editor of several technical publications. Even the Phd engineer I work for thinks he is a genius. I figured I would throw this in the...

    YECs, did the universe begin?

    Here is one that I am not claiming is the best or absolute proof but it is one that seems simple and I would be interested in hearing more about. DNA extracted from bacteria that are supposed to be 425 million years old brings into question that age, because DNA could not last more than...
