I don't need to listen to your No True Scotsman garbage.*
It's an insult to my intelligence.

I think we can say the same about "Internet creationism."

So that's the escape hatch? got it.What RickG was saying, is that we should find out of order fossils all the time; that could not be an anomaly.
I lost a lot of respect for you guys when I posted something from NASA, only to have one of you brilliant Internet scientists (I can't remember who it was, or what it was about), come back and say it was a NASA article written by some kid or something.
Your UC Berkley and other aceldama sites can take a hike.
Forget that God cleaned up the mess, forget that God cleaned up the mess 'decently and in order' -- as long as you have your computers to bow to, you're okay.
I'm sure that, in whatever order He put them in, you guys would make them match something.'Decently and in order' = an order that perfectly matches common ancestry?
No escape hatch. We have rules and those rules are ruthlessly followed. You continue to labor under the fantasy that scientists are all in a cabal that promotes "evolutionism." There is no cabal. If I were to try and publish a paper and I ignore serious anomalies just to push my hypothesis, I will be ripped to shreds by my colleagues. They won't say, "oh its OK since it pulls the 'evolutionism' party line." That's the fantasy you guys like to believe. The reality is different. The reality is I have to withstand criticism that would make you guys cry. That's the way science works. That's why science works, and creationism does not.So that's the escape hatch? got it.
IOW, you guys make up the rules.
Why would I forget something you made up? Or is God "cleaning up" also a part of "Basic Theology?"Forget that God cleaned up the mess, forget that God cleaned up the mess 'decently and in order' -- as long as you have your computers to bow to, you're okay.
Right?
And The Old Man in the Cave was right... wasn't he? Everyone who ate the food he said was contaminated died. Bad example, AVET...Reminds me of the Twilight Zone episode, The Old Man in the Cave -- (I think it was called).
I'm sure that, in whatever order He put them in, you guys would make them match something.
I'm sure that, in whatever order He put them in, you guys would make them match something.
But for the record, I do believe that you guys find anomalies all the time; but just sweep them under the carpet -- with the help of your digital prophets, of course.
Evidence please.
AVET needs no evidence for this. He will believe whatever story he comes up with that fits his own little paradigms. This one is the "all scientists are in a corrupt cabal that lies to Christians about the scientific evidence" paradigm.
The Old Man in the Cave says the Bible is contaminated.And The Old Man in the Cave was right... wasn't he? Everyone who ate the food he said was contaminated died. Bad example, AVET...![]()
Macroevolution.Evidence please.
I don't think scientists think they are lying; I think scientists are deceived.This one is the "all scientists are in a corrupt cabal that lies to Christians about the scientific evidence" paradigm.
So science is useless without macroevolution? is that what you want me to believe?So, if all scientists are corrupt and science is useless, please don't use it to support creation.
Good for you, now all you have to do is get higher aceldama to teach it, and start handing out Nobel prizes as 'attaboys', and make a totem pole of the countries of the earth who aren't as smart as you, and start calling your past generations 'ignorant Betty Crockers', and you might -- just might -- have a case.I can visualize a battle-ax wielding funfetti cupcake hacking his way through an onslaught of peppermint patty ninjas to save his beautiful bride-to-be, a cream-filled maple long john. But that doesn't make it even remotely reasonable or realistic.
But wouldn't it be much easier for me to just post about it on CF as though it were fact and as though it was what god said, and so that stuffs anybody who disagrees with me and neener neener planet cleaner ZING /thread thalidInihilpluto 123456789101112131415 bible.jpg 10^40,000 challenge CHALLENGE HIKING CHALLENGE!Good for you, now all you have to do is get higher aceldama to teach it, and start handing out Nobel prizes as 'attaboys', and make a totem pole of the countries of the earth who aren't as smart as you, and start calling your past generations 'ignorant Betty Crockers', and you might -- just might -- have a case.
