No offense to you, Black Dog, but I have never talked with an atheist who could interpret the Bible properly. They're too busy trying to find gotchas or inconsistencies instead of trying to understand what's being said. Someone will read where Jesus said, "I am the door" and cry foul because Jesus wasn't made of wood. Then then'll read that John saw a great red dragon and cry foul because there are no such things as dragons.
That's how DNA and birth works, though. You take a sperm cell, and an egg cell, they come together and produce the DNA library of an organism and become a single cell.
From that 1 cell, they start to multiply and divide, however, some cells become this, some cells become that. But yet, that first cell, or the "master cell" if you will... had the instructions, the blueprints for every kind and type of cell that would eventually make up the organism.
How did each cell know what to become? Every cell was capable of becoming anything, but yet the entire organism somehow "knew" to grow all the things it would need -- muscle, bone, organs, blood cells, antibodies, hair, etc.
Scientists did the research and told us about sperm cells, DNA, blood cells, antibodies etc, do you believe those things really exist? Are these same scientists only wrong when what they say conflicts with your religious beliefs? Weird that.
No such hard proof has been given for evolution and every model of it I've seen, I see holes in it, that can be explained by other means (creation).
I've not seen Creationism thoroughly disproven, though.
And I can't think of a more silly notion than a complex organism featuring thousands of working parts, when viewed under a microscope resemble human machines being formed out of lifeless goop over millions of years.
Nor can evolution explain the "everybody can be everything" paradox:
Step 1): Get 100 people who can play every instrument in an orchestra.
Step 2): Have 100 of every instrument on the premises.
Step 3): Have 100 of every musical notation of the music on the premises.
Step 4): Do not bring a conductor in.

Unless, of course, there were a conductor....
Cells, antibodies, etc can be seen by anybody with a powerful enough microscope. I, of course, am not going to debate against things that have been proven to exist beyond reasonable doubt. You can prove sperm cells exist. You can prove eggs exist, etc etc.

From our global brainwashing,
and "Four Corners" was the common phrase of the time.
...
The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved.
How is this "proof" of an earth that does not move?
That's enough. Video is so hard to critique. Said "proofs" all fail.
This guy is not a literalist. He is an agendist.
I don't accept evolution, because God Himself said that He did it in 6 days, and rested on the 7th in Exodus 20:10-12. When God writes something in stone with His own 'finger', you might want to think twice about taking what was said allegorically.
I've not seen Creationism thoroughly disproven, though. It's been tried, but no such disproving has ever been done.

"Global brainwashing"? So you reject a spherical earth in favor of a flat earth?

Ummm.... because that's what it says.
No true scotsman.
No, just because you are ignoring your own scripture doesn't mean they fail.

So.....you being on a globe shaped earth.....how would you describe gathering
your people using the four (or 8) directions you saw them leave in?
You may imagine the earth is 200 feet in diameter, if that helps.
Keep in mind that the earth is 99.98 percent flat.
According to earlier posts in this thread, the Evolutionists attacking Creationists are going "How can you say Creationism without Flat Earth when the Bible says the "Ends of the World", because they seem to think "Ends of the World" MUST be referring to a Flat Earth.

Yet Magellan states that the church says the earth is flat. Is Magellan lying? Did the church come to this conclusion even though the bible says the earth is spherical? Come on, that's silly. The bible says the earth is flat, and that's what the church believed. Just like the bible says God created man, and that's what some churches still believe.But not one of them does. A flat earth is just a convention, like sun rise and sun set.
Use of the convention does not prove NASA supports a flat earth.

I wouldn't say all atheists do this, but many do. I don't see the point of debating someone who is going to insist we accept his interpretation of our religion with the purpose of criticizing that interpretation.
Knowing the difference contributes to Bible maturity, doesn't it?No. It's because creationists say God created everything because the bible must be taken literally. But when it comes to the parts where the bible literally describes a flat earth, they suddenly say the bible shouldn't be taken literally.
Knowing the difference contributes to Bible maturity, doesn't it?
And by the way, that door swings both ways.
Scientists swear Genesis 1 is allegory (if not a fable); while at the same time swear the Bible literally speaks of a flat earth.
