That is also shown by those people not being able to argue logically. I know that I have been wrong. I hope that I have argued logically. That was one of the ways that I found I was very wrong on at least two subjects. Realizing that one is wrong is the first step in learning new and sometimes exciting science.The part I don't understand is why one feels the need distort and/or misrepresent well understood science to support ones religious beliefs. To me that implies insecurity in ones faith.

You're right.
My mistake.
He died in 2007.
You're good at putting words in other peoples' mouths.
I'll pass.
We all do, don't we?
Ain't that a gas?
Does "well understood science" support this thread (or any thread) that God is a deceiver?
If you judge one's faith by how much science he accepts, then that's your prerogative.
When are you going to deal with the facts and reality?
Note my signature. Yes, if God implanted fossils in such a way to represent evolution and a way to date them that would not be know until thousands of years later, while providing a written text to the contrary, that is deception.Does "well understood science" support this thread (or any thread) that God is a deceiver?

It is rather amazing that you still won't let yourself see how the only one calling God a liar is you. Not directly but by implication.
It seems that someone has to do it for you. The sad fact is that almost every Christian can see what is wrong with an "embedded age". And it is not just one, it is a entire sequence of ages. You try to claim that your embedding does not have history, but it does. The history written in the rocks would need to be correct or requires a dishonest God. I don't see any other way out of it. And you don't seem to be able to see any way out of it either.Why should I waste my time doing it, when I have you guys doing it for me?

I have no problem with anyone basing their religious beliefs and interpretation of scripture solely on faith, or even denying science they do not agree with.
I do have a problem with those who deliberately misrepresent any information, or make things up to support those beliefs, that is bearing false witness.
Understand that this is not unique to religion or Christianity, as it can apply to secular beliefs as well.

Again, if you have to stand behind others to make a point ... well ... it's your prerogative, I guess.It seems that someone has to do it for you. The sad fact is that almost every Christian can see what is wrong with an "embedded age".
You first.
Do you still hold to the position that radiometric dating measures the physical age of a rock, and therefore measures the embedded age of the rock? Remember this equation that YOU created?
Wheeee!
And the tilt-a-whirl just keeps on going, doesn't it?
Have you, by the way, seen my tilt-a-whirl thread?
It's from way back.
I am dealing with reality.
Then deal with all of it.
It should simplify this stale conversation.
I'm off that ride.Still no response?
Bananaslug: You are saying there is no evidence for "embedded age", yet this verse clearly says God's invisible qualities have been clearly seen SINCE THE CREATION. If God hid all of the evidence for creation, then Romans 1:20 is wrong. Which is wrong, Romans 1:20 or your "embedded age" interpretation?
AV1611VET: But God didn't hide it, did He? You guys found it with your radiometrics. Believe me, if He didn't want you to find it, you would never find it.

I'm off that ride.
Only if you believe its age resets to zero.Then it appears that radiometric dating measures the true age of a rock.
