"Embedded Age" Requires Fake Fossils

[Loudmouth]

You are wrong on this! The most powerful evidence for the supernatural was the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The evidence was so strong that millions of martyrs preferred to die rather than deny said fact and in a few centuries the entire powerful pagan Roman Empire became Christian.

Those millions of martyrs claimed to have witnessed the resurrection?

Also I notice that in verse one it talked of creating the waters.

I find no reference to the creation of waters in verse one. There is no verse saying “Let there be waters.”

Those millions of martyrs claimed to have witnessed the resurrection?

If they would have know back then what you know today, do you think they would have recanted and lived?

 

[Nic Samojluk]

Maybe you should spend more time learning and less time trying to sound like you know what you are talking about.

I learn when people show me evidence I have no way to interpret in harmony with my world view.

If I gave you examples of martyrs from different religions, would you convert to those religions? If not, then why use an argument that even you would not be convinced by?

But there is no reliable evidence for that event. You may believe it happened, but that is not evidence And no, there were no "millions of martyrs". In fact it appears that the claims of martyrdom for Christianity is hugely overblown:

" Official persecution of Christians by order of the Roman Emperor lasted for at most twelve years of the first three hundred of the Church's history. Most of the stories of individual martyrs are pure invention, and even the oldest and most historically accurate stories of martyrs and their sufferings have been altered and re-written by later editors, so that it is impossible to know for sure what any of the martyrs actually thought, did or said."

Read my posting above : entitled

Red Blood Cells Found in Dinosaur Fossils

But actual red blood cells were not found. At best remnants of blood cells were found, the article that you used said exactly that. You are merely grasping at straws. You should learn why scientists know that those fossils are millions of years old without radiometric dating.

For someone that assaulted creation in Genesis by inserting stuff and pipe dreaming to call foe evidence is hypocritical.

Every time I search the Internet to find an answer for your cogent objections, I learn something I didn’t know before.

Isn't that what you do?

Stars were made on the day the sun was and that was after our earth. The atmosphere may pre date stars!

Experts claim that our planet and our sun are approximately five billion years old. I have no problem with that!

 

[AV1611VET]

Nor do I, until those "experts" expect me to believe the sun has been hanging around for approximately five billion years; or that the sun came before the earth.

Then I have issues.

 

[Nic Samojluk]

Genesis was written because God ordered it, and wanted a record of creation.

Yes, the Lord inspired Moses to record for posterity the fact that the sun and the stars were created by God in order to counteract the pagan polytheistic culture.

Nevertheless, God did not dictate the content of the Bible. If the Lord had dictated the Bible, we would have only one official account of the Gospels

 

[Nic Samojluk]

That's fine, but I asked a specific question concerning as to how far on the deep past do you think we can look, with respect to "Earth's" physical environment.

Five billion years is fine with me.

 

[crjmurray]

Five billion years is fine with me.

But life is only a few thousand years old?

 

[Nic Samojluk]

Then how do we explain fossils of life being found in layers of sedimentary strata dating back well over 3 Ga (billion years)?

If the premise is faulty, the conclusion is on a shaky foundation.

“The premise that the processes affecting the earth today are the same as in the past is the basis for determining how sedimentary features in the rock record were formed. …

The scientific basis of this is the principle of uniformitarianism, which states that the sediments within ancient sedimentary rocks were deposited in the same way as sediments which are being deposited at the Earth's surface today. …

Ref.: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Sedimentology

“Based on the rule of superposition —that is, the lower the strata, the older the fossil—creatures thought to have evolved first are considered to be the oldest and are placed at the bottom of the geologic column and creatures thought to have evolved later are placed higher up on the geologic column. Paleontologists simply guess how long it would take for one fossil animal to evolve into another, and then date the fossils and rocks accordingly.

Again, evolution is assumed as a basis or premise for this dating technique.

This has led many competent scientists to object to what is termed circular reasoning. Evolutionists maintain the age of index fossils is validated by the superposition of rock strata and the age of rock strata is validated by index fossils. Isn’t this circular reasoning based on the assumption of evolution and uniformitarianism? …

If uniformity theory over many millions of years were true, rock layers and formations would be uniformly deposited regionally and globally. In reality, this is not the case. The typical situation in geology is that only a few rock formations are superposed (that is, younger rock layers placed over older rock layers). Most often, rock formations are inverted, folded, inserted, repeated, or missing, and fossils are in reverse order from that demanded by evolution. Such inconsistencies are found throughout the world and are completely consistent with catastrophic geologic processes (that is, earthquakes, volcanism, flood, sedimentation, orogeny, and erosion) occurring within a short period of time. …”

How Reliable is the Geologic Column?

“Back in November of 2010, we posted two articles on the discovery of the oldest fossil shrimp: ‘Remarkably Preserved’ Shrimp Is 350 Million Years Old?, ‘Oldest’ Fossil Shrimp?. In those articles we discussed how this one fossil shrimp extended its known fossil range by 115 million years (evolution date) and how finely preserved it was. Today I want to take a quick look at what this fossil and others really tell us about the evolutionary interpretation of the geological column.

Currently sedimentary rocks are extremely difficult to date by any radioisotopic method. Therefore, the prevailing method of dating sedimentary strata is by what fossils are found in what particular layer

[Nic Samojluk]

Why hasn't this opinion, been accepted by professional geologists?

Because this is rather a recent discovery. Besides, it may contradict or eventually obliterate the evolutionist’s edifice scientists have struggled so hard to build on thin air. Most experts do not dare to tell the prince that he is naked!

 

[Nic Samojluk]

"What history has validated a recent global flood?

The Bible has no need for the flood to have been global. Have you read the story of Joseph? It affirms that all the world went to Egypt to buy bread. You do not conclude that the indigenous inhabitants of America made the long voyage to buy bread from Joseph. You have the option of concluding that the flood was global or rather local without destroying the credibility of biblical record.

 

[Nic Samojluk]

Wetterich's hypothesis may be well-founded, but your links don't say how the hypothesis explains the observational data that support the Big Bang cosmology, nor do they say that the hypothesis vitiates the age for the universe obtained from WMAP and Planck observations.

Each hypothesis is built on a different premise. If the premise is replaced, the conclusion must be rejected.
