Aren't we all?If they use faulty dating methods, and AV1611VET knows this - without any training on the subject - this raises the question, are all Egyptologists then horribly incompetent or fraudulent?
I don't see you hiding behind anything.More than annoying, it's a sign of weakness and/or uncertainty. It validates the opinion that christianity has nothing to offer and needs to be shielded from even the most timid inquiry.

I don't need to hide. I expose my views and opinions to the sharpest criticism. If one of my views were to be shown to be wrong, I wouldn't be embarrassed but freed from a burden.I don't see you hiding behind anything.
Would you "shield [your children] from the most timid inquiry into Christianity"?I don't need to hide. I expose my views and opinions to the sharpest criticism. If one of my views were to be shown to be wrong, I wouldn't be embarrassed but freed from a burden.

I was actually wondering on what material the Qumran scrolls were written (if they count as Scripture, that is).That's not quite fair. Some of it also comes on clay tablet.
No.Would you "shield [your children] from the most timid inquiry into Christianity"?
I don't make inquiries into christianity, neither timid nor bold ones.If so, what would happen if they saw you on the Internet making timid inquiries into Christianity?
Fair enough.No.

It is rude and dismissive, of course.More than annoying, it's a sign of weakness and/or uncertainty. It validates the opinion that christianity has nothing to offer and needs to be shielded from even the most timid inquiry.
Yec, "embedded age" etc are notNo.

Which is a funny thing since....well....here you are, on CF!
I mean, "what up" with that? Can you imagine the silliness of someone saying, "....oh uh....yeah.....I just do CF......for the science?" I can't.
I really wouldn't have any need to "inquire" into Christianity if people wouldn't continue injecting it into science without warrant.What I can imagine is someone saying that he makes inquiries into both Christianity and Atheism, bold ones even!
So, I do. Especially while being on CF.
I can understand why academia would think that.It is rude and dismissive, of course.
That's what you want them to do, isn't it?I've observed an extreme reluctance on the part of our "yec' Christians to admit to even the tiniest error.
I know.It doesn't even have to be of any relevance to yec v ToE.
Good.I've never seen a yec admit to any error.
Maybe because they know what academia would do with that offering?Nothing to offer.
Would you recognize a lie, if you heard it?If God, the angels, Bible and all of reality were really on the side of yec, there'd be no need to hide, FTR, or resort to shabbiness like as misrepresentation, or lies from such as AIG.
Yes, and so you have. I've noticed.I have written that sentence multiple times. (Though I often put a "pseudo" into it.) You should expand your imagination.
I see. Well then, at least you're not playing the Daniel Dennett card. That's admirable.I really wouldn't have any need to "inquire" into Christianity if people wouldn't continue injecting it into science without warrant.
(And there is nothing about "Atheism" that needs inquiries. All it entails is the non-believe in the various gods.)
And you're not right.Yec, "embedded age" etc are not Christianity.
I haven't heard this one for a while.You must have me mixed up with someone else.
I could ask Chris Naunton the Egyptologist if he is horribly incompetent or fraudulent.If they use faulty dating methods, and AV1611VET knows this - without any training on the subject - this raises the question, are all Egyptologists then horribly incompetent or fraudulent?
Yes, and so you have. I've noticed.

Oh, but Hans! My vain imagination has me jumping into the Rabbit Hole, even if just for the GRINS of getting a swing or four with a Vorpal Sword.
And yes, it positivistically floats my boat to do so.
Do you envy him?The astrophysicist Brian Koblerlein on the other hand has claimed he has been attacked for not towing the Bible line that the Earth is flat, the center of the universe and not older than 6000 years.
