Hi all, I’m Dan Morton, Glenn Morton’s son (oldest of his three!). Due to his health situation, which some of you may know about, he’s unable to respond or post now. We’re continuing to pray for his comfort. I’m posting because he did finish the book and we helped him get it onto Kindle...

I got out of this area back around 2010, and I had been losing interest for a while. I must have missed the virtual history, idea. Wow, I just looked it up. It looks like he has placed all of science in the role the Silmarillion plays in the Hobbit/Lord of the Rings story. It is untrue...

I agree Barbarian. God can do whatever he wants, which is why I agreed with JamesBond that if God wanted to do it that way, he could. I can think of several ways it could happen But in my time as a YEC, and my dealings with YECS, I think have taught me, giving them a means by which God...

As Barbarian says, the only requirement for salvation is belief in Jesus who paid the penalty for our sin and who died and rose again. The above seems to get close to saying that those of us who believe in evolution are followers of Satan. I hope that is not what you are suggesting. I think...

I will say admit that. God would have to hide that he did it that way, but if one is ok with that God can do anything he wants. Now, I wonder if you will admit that if God wants to control evolution he can in a way I outlline here.

I didn't know about 'tevel'. Glad to learn that. I think I have presented my view here. Barbarian you are a gentleman and I have enjoyed our interaction. I think on Wednesday I will be referred to hospice. It is amazing how quickly I have gone from being able to do things around the house...

Why wasn't there a Rainbow in Noah's Pre-Flood World? Glenn R. Morton March 21, 2020 There are two statements that Biblical scholars don't often connect and liberals dismiss as ridiculous. I believe the Bible is a record of God's interaction with mankind. And I believe that it can be...

First, I won't plant my flag on the hill of how language happened. I don't know how it happened. I have ideas, preferences, but that is largely what they are. I am not sure who is right on chimp hand signs but I found this years ago in Pinker's book "Actually what the chimps were really doing...

Evidence for language in the hominids and tired old genes. This post is cobbled together from several different discussions I have had. I want to point out that the only time in geologic history that Christianity can hope to have a primal pair is at the time which matches closely our oldest...

I agree with Barbarian, who knows so much about this topic--maybe more than me and I thought I was good. lol. Everyone finds someone who is better and I bow to Barbarian's knowledge. "Humans are simply born too early in their development, at the time when their heads will still fit through...

I guess I haven't read that one. I read: L. Luca Cavalli-Sforza, Paoli Menozzi and Alberto Piazzi, The History and Geography of Human Genes, (Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1994) and I read Luigi L. Cavalli-Sforza and Francesco Cavalli-Sforza, The Great Human Diaspora, (New York...

Not much as far as I can tell. If Jesus doesn't really need us humans to cheer him at the Triumphal entry and could have used stones for the same purpose, that kinda puts us humans in our place. There is a large misunderstanding among non-geologists about the nature of the fossil record. It...

Does a small brain make you dumb part 2 extracted from here The Hobbit Finally, we come to the most enigmatic fossils anthropology has found, Homo floresiensis, the 'Hobbit'. This population will challenge everyone's view of who has the image of God. This being is believed to be the descendant...

Well, my Mandarin is pedestrian at best and very rusty at worst. I grouped the characters differently.
