    Nsidc

    the point is that not only is the extent of ice less, the ice is getting progressively thinner making it easier to melt. As more ice melts less sunlight is reflected back into space heating the oceans even more. At least the melting of the sea ice doesn't raise sea level unlike the melting of...

    Nsidc

    It is far more likely that next will break this year's record for lowest ice. The picture shows this year's current level compared to the average minimum of the last 30 years. This graph shows the extent of the Greenland Ice Sheet compared to the 2002-2011 average. I think you can see the trend

    How do opossums fit into evolution?

    Not really, the explanation has been given, while creationism apparently has none at all.

    How do opossums fit into evolution?

    So you've seen this dog attack a possum that was playing dead?

    How do opossums fit into evolution?

    So then you are saying God created possums to be quick meals for predators? Actually running triggers the predation instict in many predators. This is why it is usually so counter productive to run from a dog. Even one that wasn't "planning" to attack may do so if you run away. As I said I have...

    How do opossums fit into evolution?

    I think automobiles are now the number 1 "predators" of possums and probably deer and racoons in our area at least.

    How do opossums fit into evolution?

    I grew up on a farm and on at least two occasions I found "dead" possums that turned out later to be very much alive. This can be an unpleasant surprise. Our dogs, which would have chased any living animal ignored them. This strategy works very well with many predators but is spectacularly...

    The Dodwell Data now out!!!!!

    It you that must be kidding us over all these years. Do you really think you can cram 12 dynasties including the construction of the pyramides and all predynastic Egypt into the 300 years between the mythical flood which reduced the earths population to 8 and the contruction of the temples at...

    The Dodwell Data now out!!!!!

    Those goof balls at Answers in Genesis currently put the flood at about 2348 BC. Feedback: Timeline for the Flood - Answers in Genesis At least this about 100 years before Sargon I ruled Akkad. Sargon of Akkad - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia yes, there is uncertainly of the exact dates...

    The Dodwell Data now out!!!!!

    What is hilarious about this is that Dodwell got his Egyptian dates from the King's list.

    I need help????

    You can certainly get those things on this forum but this is not the optimum subform for the best perspectives and advice. I am sure someone can help you find the appropriate place for your questions.

    The Dodwell Data now out!!!!!

    So, somewhere between the 4th and 8th dynasties of Ancient Egypt and around the time of the early Akkadian Empire in Sumeria. There were also flourishing civilizations in Europe, India and China. It was a world-wide flood that no one really noticed.

    The Dodwell Data now out!!!!!

    You need to read the site again and consider the caption to figure 6 Two significant structures of the Amon complex at Karnak related to sunrise at the winter solstice. Above (a), the so-called “high room of the sun”, accessible from the Festival Hall of Thutmosis III. From this holy place, it...

    Would Jesus believe in evolution?

    In that case he wouldn't have to "believe in evolution". He would know it is true. :cool:

    How do fruit trees fit into evolution?

    Or consider how many acorn trees are planted by squirrels that forgot where they buried the nuts. I have them popping up in my yard and garden all the time.

    The Dodwell Data now out!!!!!

    The problem with Karnak is not the date. The problem is that Dodwell used the wrong solstice. http://www.christianforums.com/t7447827-29/#post54599929 When the correct solstice is used the Karnak value falls right on the Newcombe Curve. X marks the correct spot in the attachment.

    was there a pangea?

    Yeah, I noticed. Years ago I thought dad had to be a troll just trying to make creationism look bad. I didn't think he could possibly actually believe the nonsense he spouts but now I realize I was wrong. IIRC, once upon a time he posted as "simple" and tried to defend standard YEC mythology on...
