My Tectonic Plates Challenge

[joshua 1 9]

Yeah, like when the Bible says that the stars can fall to Earth and science says they can't. Bible is "obviously" right there...

*Rolls eyes*

Rev 12:4 "And his tail drew the third part of the stars G792 of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born."

 

[joshua 1 9]

Translation: Where the Bible disagrees with science, science is wrong.

*Smile*

God created Science, so Science can not be wrong anymore then the Bible can be wrong. Of course people can be wrong in their understanding of Science or their understanding of the Bible.

11When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things. 12For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face; now I know in part, but then I will know fully just as I also have been fully known.13But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love. 1cor13

Rev 12:4 "And his tail drew the third part of the stars G792 of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born."

So?

"Our own Sun is an example of an average star. It has a diameter of 1.4 million kilometers… The smallest stars out there are the tiny red dwarfs. These are stars with no more than 50% the mass of the Sun, and they can have as little as 7.5% the mass of the Sun."

So even a small star is huge when compared to the Earth.

What have I just demonstrated?

A callous disregard for people's dishes?

You have demonstrated that after almost 3.5 millions post still cant post something that make sense to the rest of us. [not to be taken to serious]

How do we even know the tectonic plates are real? If you support tectonic plates, you'd also have to support the pangae and eventually evolution and the big bang theory.

Nobody has seen the tectonic plates, nobody has mapped it.

In 1912 Alfred Wegener (1880-1930) noticed the same thing and proposed that the continents were once compressed into a single protocontinent which he called Pangaea (meaning "all lands"), and over time they have drifted apart into their current distribution. He believed that Pangaea was intact until the late Carboniferous period, about 300 million years ago, when it began to break up and drift apart. However, Wegener's hypothesis lacked a geological mechanism to explain how the continents could drift across the earths surface as he proposed.

Not until the 1960's did Holmes' idea receive any attention. Greater understanding of the ocean floor and the discoveries of features like mid-oceanic ridges, geomagnetic anomalies parallel to the mid-oceanic ridges, and the association of island arcs and oceanic trenches occurring together and near the continental margins, suggested convection might indeed be at work. These discoveries and more led Harry Hess (1962) and R.Deitz (1961) to publish similar hypotheses based on mantle convection currents, now known as "sea floor spreading".

Basically, it's a hoax!

Where wast thou when I laid the foundations of the earth? declare, if thou hast understanding. - Job 38:4

The foundations of the earth are in the tectonic plates.

The foundations of the earth are in the tectonic plates.

What kind of a foundation is it if it constantly moves?!?!?!? Does the foundation in your house move or is it stable?

I guess you did not read:

Psalm 104:5
He established the earth upon its foundations, So that it will not totter forever and ever.

Foundations in Job are referring to when God created the earth....as in the ground. NASA has fooled people to thinking the word earth means globe. No, it means the ground.

Some of us will not mold God's word to fit "falsely so called science"/pseudo science.

The Poe is strong with this one.

Never heard of plate tectonic denial before.
I suppose this instead might have to do with creationism, or perhaps the Great Deluge?

A flood of that scale could easily crush the Earth into plates, shifting them.

The bible tells us, indirectly, that all the land was once one mass.

Genesis 1:9
And God said, "Let the water under the sky be gathered to one place, and let dry ground appear." And it was so.

And yet the movement of the plates has been observed and measured.

Why change now? There is a reputation to uphold.

Wow, that's some flood.

No doubt. Flooding the entire earth would completely change the topography. Where once there were no mountains, mountains would appear. Mountains that did exist would be gone. Extreme flooding rains have been known to saturate the ground to such an extent they caused Volcanic eruptions, called steam explosions or Littoral explosions.

The environmental change brought on by flooding the entire earth would be tremendous. Such changes would take a long time to reverse. One of the changes would be an extreme drop in the surface temperature, a drop that could take thousand or millions of years to reverse.

It's quite likely the world was totally different before the flood. That's why I wonder why people waste their time looking for the garden of Eden. The garden would have been destroyed in the flood.

I think the garden was destroyed by reality, and long before we knew there was never a global flood.

Well, if it wasn't for no point, there'd be no point at all.

Where does that say all the land was in one place? How do you know that the dry land wasn't scattered about in several different areas when it appeared?

Occam's razor.

How did the Shemites, Hamites, and Japhethites get scattered all over the earth?
