And gravitational theory. Atomic theory. Germ theory. Semiconductor theory.

Computers don't actually work. It is a conspiracy maintained by scientists to maintain their funding for doing other work.

You must be very wise to be able to see that.

Is sarcasm that necessary to your point? You must think you are funny, but I think not. Just because we have been allowed to have a brain doesn't means life must be very old. What did the earth look like 6,000 years ago? But to answer that question one would have to know all the variables in real time. No one does unless you know a real genius besides the Creator. I have a question; What is the speed of dispersement for the creation of the universe (big bang)? How many times faster than the speed of light would you think?:idea:

Funny bantering...lol. The creation of all is young of course. Anyone who disagrees, disagrees with God. What I find so amusing is how many "smart people" have bought into the evolution theory.


This creation is young. Yes! This present world.

The planet though is much older than this creation. There have been other creations to grace the surface of this earth before this one did.

Smart people have bought into evolution because too many Christians are stupid. They get all worked up by being the choir being preached to.

This present creation is not the last one to grace the surface of this earth. This one will be replaced, just like this one replaced the one that came before it. There will be a new heaven and new earth. Lions will eat grass with the lamb, and it will not be because of evolution.

If you are able to have an open mind? And filled with the Spirit? You can give this link a look at. It may help you in better understanding why evolutionists see you as being so stupid, and have justification for feeling that way. As long as you stay where you are, you are giving them all the excuse they need for remaining an atheist. The Bible does not teach that the creation is young. It only teaches that this present world is relatively young.

Take a peek please. The original Scofield Bible used to have footnotes on this truth.

Wanna take that back spud? We're stupid? Worked up? I think you've got us confused by creationists.

The Lion and the lamb is SYMBOLIC not literal. Do you not recognize symbolism at all?

So you know the mind of God eh? Why are you sure your interpretation is correct when it so clearly disagrees with ALL of science?

Implying your brothers and sisters in the faith are not smart is pretty arrogant.

I see you flip sides pretty quick. Either that... or you do not understand what either one of us is saying.

Why are you calling me stupid? I'm not stupid, I have a doctorate. I'm also not confused.

Why do you think I don't understand? You flat out called me stupid. I don't think you are right and it doesn't bode well for discussion.

Not really. I just looked up some posts of his. I have no idea where he got his thinking from.

He supposedly got it from the same source that you do....the scriptures.

Which only goes to further demonstrate how useless they are for forming a coherent understanding of our world...

Yes you are confused. I did not call you stupid. That's the point, doctor.
And, doctors can be be stupid and confused when they step outside of their area of expertise while expecting to be smart in all matters.

Are you a young earth creationist? Are you?

Are you a young earth creationist? Are you?

What on earth do you think I'm confused about?

Why did you call Christians stupid?

And why are you equating evolution with atheism? :doh: :doh: :doh:

You already know I am a Christian Theistic Evolutionist... so :confused:

Come on! Jim Jones got what he ended up concocting from Scriptures, too.

If I stood up before the court of Hitler, and declared that Jews were human beings worthy of respect.... They would say I was an incoherent thinker.

If anything... The Bible sees right through the world. But, don't ask me to explain how. You would think I am an incoherent thinker if I told you the truth.

Many are! You would have to be stupid not to see it.

And why are you equating evolution with atheism? :doh: :doh: :doh:
It was not equated by default. But, by the given context.

You already know I am a Christian Theistic Evolutionist... so :confused:
So!? The fact remains.. I did not call you stupid. I was speaking only in reference to young earth creationists, not all Christians.

That should suffice for now while that sinks into that God given brain of yours.

1 Corinthians 4:7

For who makes you different from anyone else?
What do you have that you did not receive? And
if you did receive it, why do you boast as though
you did not?

Yes, as did Torqemada, as did the Hutus, as did the leadership of the ethnic cleansers in the Balkans.....thank you for helping to make my point...!

If anything... The Bible sees right through the world. But, don't ask me to explain how. You would think I am an incoherent thinker if I told you the truth.

Without the Bible, Adolf would have found it much more difficult to rationalise what he did to the Jews.....

Poor ol' dead Hitch was right.......religion poisons everything.....

Wow, I missed a lot. I didn't realize how many arrogant "smart" people there are here. Saul Alinsky would be proud of you after all the bantering and put down against people that believe the Bible, especially literally like myself. I see the icons by the names and I see a lot of crosses :confused:. I agree that religion is dangerous, but relationship is God. :thumbsup:

Why read a book that is so complete, timeline wise, and not give it the respect it deserves? God, that created you and all the wonderful things we enjoy, could not create everything in a short time? Really? So, are you saying it is impossible? Don't bring up all the manipulating science that is regurgitated so frequently, everything you will say about old earth will be backed up by guesses a long time ago that are perceived as fact today. Just a simple question; Do you think it is possible?
