Refutations of Young Earth Arguments (AiG)

[Mistermystery]

Your refutations are poop! You don't even make one serious counterargument that one could not find in the initial articles!

Actually, he does.

Evolutionists can come up with all the wacko ideas they want, but they can't make a monkey out of me!

A "Science" that believes contradictory thoughts are complimentery is quite hilarious indeed!

Darwin is dead, and Christ is alive. Gotta love natural selection.

I think Christ was the Survivor of the Fittest....and I do believe Darwin does believe in God now.

9 responces here in like less than a day here, yet the "Evidence for evolution" thread has no responces after 24 hours. Did I win?

Its just a sad attempt to use a definition of terms and what you think is what as a refutation to an Objective topic of discussion. This is what we call..."elephant hurling." If you were seriously familiar with Sarfati's work (as its pretty evident you took his arguments and put your own interpretation to them...setting up plenty of Strawmen), you'd know that word, and how to not use it as a form of argumentation.

I am familiar with Sarfati's "work". I have read "Refuting Evolution".

Is there any specific one of his bogus young earth arguments you would like to disucss or are you afraid of having an elephant hurled on your head?

I thought elephant hurling was throwing out long lists of mostly irrelevant arguments like you have done on several threads. What this thread represents is an answer to the type of "elephant hurling" that AiG and Hoving and other YEC groups indulg in.

Evidence of human habitation over 100,000 years old also throws a monkey wrench into the young earth theory.

A series of shallow dwellings ranging from 26-50 ft. long and 13-20 ft. wide can be found at different levels throughout the site dating as far back as 380,000 years before present. The dwellings consisted of small poles supported by rocks for walls and larger poles in the center to support the roof. Some of these shelters contained hearths and what is believed to be some of the earliest controlled use of fire. All but two areas of the huts were strewn with bones and coprolites, fossilized human feces. The area around the hearth was clear of debris and was probably used for sleeping. The other area that was not strewn with debris was covered with pieces of broken stone. These pieces of stone could be fit together and led to speculation that this may have been a work area for making tools. There were also many tools such as choppers, scrapers, and hatchets of the Acheulian tradition found on the site.
The coprolites found in and around the dwellings were analyzed to determine the components of the diet of the occupants of Terra Amata. There were many seeds found in these samples that grow in the late spring to early fall. This suggested that this site was a seasonal camp. The inhabitants would follow the seasons and arrive at the site during the growing season of these plants.

Occupation layers of the cave in use during marine isotopic stage 6 (186,000-127,000 years ago) were excavated during the 1970s[1] and may demonstrate construction abilities and other organisational skills by the inhabitants at the time.
Close to the mouth of the cave and along one wall were found Acheulean stone tools along with fragments of animal bone surrounding two circular charcoal concentrations which likely served as hearths. This occupation area measures 11m by 3.5m (36ft by 11ft) and was delimited by the cave wall on three sides and on the fourth by a sinuous line of large stones. It is these which have been interpreted as having served as packing stones that could have been used to support the poles of an animal skin tent pitched against the cave wall. No evidence of the organic tent poles or tent itself would have survived but stone tool flakes and animal bone appear to spill outwards from between the stones at two points which may represent entrances to the conjectured shelter.

You seem to have little love for wisdom, or truth, or science, or whatever. Emoticons are not valid arguments. How about you answer the OP?
