I have confirmation of the Bible, i see the creation as described in the Bible. The two created lights sun greater light and the lesser light the moon and i see stars. All moveing over the earth as stated in the Bible to give light on the earth.
I see as Paul writes, that there is one glory for the sun another glory for the moon and another glory for stars.
I see a raqia that shows Gods handiwork as stated in Psalm's 19
You just said "The Bible needs no outside conformation". You're contradicting yourself.
I am not obligated to you or your questions.
Especially when they are based off of the lies of science as proven by the creation account in the Bible. That the earth is not a globe, there is no outer space containing planets moving around a sun that are millions of miles away. so and so.
So as far as your isotopes with half-lives of less than 700,000,000 years? SN 1987a 168,000 neutrino burst, I file them in the same lie stack with the globe etc...
I would expect such a response from someone unable to answer them.
Oh, I didn't realize you were a Flerfer.
God says "Test me now herewith..", meaning his (still applicable) laws. I've tested them. They are true.
Scientifically speaking God declares that he created everything. Looking around I see stuff that appears to have been created. Proof enough for me.
The problem is that none of the radioactive methods of dating is:
1) Repeatable
2) Accurate
3) Consistent
I've seen where people took their dog's bones to be dated and they came out as anywhere from 600 - 12,000 years old. Each time it was measured, different labs got different results and they were all wrong. The dog died as was buried 10 years earlier.
I think a good methodology is to study Genesis from a scholarly perspective first, (Hebrew, ANE culture and history) catalogue the likely meanings, and see if they meet observation. That may or may not eliminate some of the choices but I think it's the best route. I think we can eliminate flat earth from scripture (let me know if you want me to explain that), and I think we can't predict the age of the earth because scripture does not mention a day that the earth was created. So I'm not sure how we can say, from scripture, that the earth is any particular age.Scenario: 5 creationists, 5 different beliefs about the Earth and its history.
How would creationists determine which is the correct view of Earth's history? What methodology would creationists apply to determine this?
On what do you base this conclusion? Creationist essays?The problem is that none of the radioactive methods of dating is:

Documentation please.Each time it was measured, different labs got different results and they were all wrong. The dog died as was buried 10 years earlier.
Where in your engineering texts were these methods assessed as being accurate?So in the absence of reliable scientific methods of dating, I see instead where the Scriptures record every man from Adam to Jesus, and see how Creation took God 6 days.
Documentation please.I have also seen non-Christian physicists show how a Universal Ocean could have been molecularity [sic - what does that even mean?] split by a huge explosion of Universal light, creating the entire known Universe in 6 literal days.
Why WOULD engineering text books say anything about radiometric dating?So the evidence and science I've tested and seen points to young, round earth. The science textbooks in all my College Bachelors degree of Engineering at IUPUI in Indianapolis never showed me a dating method that was repeatable, accurate for items of known age, or consistent in their findings.
Sure they did... Engineering texts...They just basically said "It's X years old, this is generally how radioactive carbon dating works".
But I've seen HUNDREDS of people who tried to use radioactive dating to accurately date KNOWN objects ages and these methods failed miserably.
That is why I have no faith in radioactive dating methods. The evidence I've seen points to their lack of credibility.
Here's a basic video explaining some of the issues with current dating methods. It talks about some of the reasons carbon dating is not reliable.
But it doesn't have to have been made by God along the lines of biblical creationism to have value.
What does the Bible tell us about the lack of naturally occurring isotopes with half-lives of less than 700,000,000 years? What does the Bible tell us about SN 1987a 168,000 years ago and the arrival of a neutrino burst hours before it became visible?
The Bible determines the truth about Gods creation.
Keep it simple; does the bible mentions the rings of Saturn?What does the Bible tell us about the lack of naturally occurring isotopes with half-lives of less than 700,000,000 years? What does the Bible tell us about SN 1987a 168,000 years ago and the arrival of a neutrino burst hours before it became visible?
I look at a bowl of popcorn and see that all the big fluffy pieces are at the top and all the little fragments and unpopped kernels are at the bottom. That's proof enough for me that there's an imp in my microwave who sorts the popcorn by size, thus allowing me to easily get the nice ones while keeping the terrible bits at the bottom so I don't have to constantly sort through the popcorn myself.
Of course, I could be wrong. The imp may not live in my microwave. He (she? It/ Do popcorn imps have gender?) may live in the bowl, sorting the popcorn as soon as I pour it in. Or the imp may live in the bag of popcorn itself, and stay with the popcorn the entire time.
I may have to contact the popcorn company, see if they know anything about imps.
Nevertheless, the fact that my popcorn is sorted is totally convincing proof that somebody somewhere wants me to be eating popcorn, and who am I to say otherwise?
The problem is that none of the radioactive methods of dating is:
How would creationists determine which is the correct view of Earth's history? What methodology would creationists apply to determine this?
No, but science can explain the sorting--fully and without reference to a 3000 year-old Hebrew religious text.Are you saying that science created the 'sorting' that you are seeing in your popcorn bowl?
No, but science can explain the sorting--fully and without reference to a 3000 year-old Hebrew religious text.
Yup.The bible has more important things to say.
Yup.
Exodus 4:25
Then Zipporah took a flint and cut off her son's foreskin and threw it at Moses' feet, and she said, "You are indeed a bridegroom of blood to me."
