You're just being teased. It seems to many of us that if the Bible really was the literal, inerrant and perspicuous product of omniscient plenary verbal inspiration as you all claim then you all ought to agree on what it says. That you don't is something to make fun of.
Accuracy doesn't guarantee agreement.

Will you parse this for me:

You won't find the same level of disagreement over science that creationists have over creationism.
Is that why we have some eight different theories as to how we got our moon?

Made fun of Because two people have differences on this one thing? And as if evolutionists never disagree, Stop it, please lol. You all must really be falling behind to have to grab at something so petty. You are delighted....over nothing.

Might want to take my suggestion and spend your time making an actual case for evolution...you know, looking for an actual defense.

Hilarious.

Disagreeing over the fundamental nature of the universe is significant. It speaks to a fundamental problem with creationist beliefs.

And for the record, you're not the only creationists to disagree on this forum. Almost every creationist here seems to have different beliefs over the nature and history of the universe. This is not a small thing.

If anything, it makes creationist beliefs seem entirely arbitrary and inconsequential.

The fact that creationists can't agree on something as fundamental as the nature of the universe speaks volumes about creationism.

Yeah man, what's happened here changes everything! Blows the whole concept of creation right out of the water, and evolution now rules. :rolleyes:

Of course evolutionists sometimes disagree. But then, they don't assert that their positions are absolute truth, either.

Defense against what?

Creationism has been out of the water, high and dry, for something like two hundred years. But theory of evolution doesn't rule. It's just a scientific theory, subject to being overturned at any time by new evidence.

Do you not think that something as fundamental of the nature of our own universe might be important? Or do you just not care?

I guess you just aren't going to pick up on the fact this virtually nothing of a disagreement, means...well, virtually nothing, and does not cause all those things you seem to think it does. But milk it FWIW, your side of this needs all the defense it can make up..

You all saw it here folks: the fundamental nature of the universe is apparently irrelevant when it comes to creationism. Yet creationists continue to insist they can speak to the origin of the same. ^_^

(This also speaks to how disconnected creationists are when it comes to understanding the basics of science and the scientific method.)

It doesn't "cause" anything. Disagreement among creationists just suggests that the book you claim clearly expresses absolute factual truth about creation maybe doesn't.
