Scientific evidence for creation and predictive value

Humphreys says:

To calculate the magnetic moment of a planet at creation, we must know the original material. In the previous article I presented Scriptural evidence that God originally created the Earth as a sphere of pure water.

ROTFLMAO!

Talk about your unproven assumptions!

Since the rest of the paper derives from this bit of nonsense, it too is nonsense. (the GIGO effect)

C'mon Nick. You're smart enough to see that.

Here's a nice quote from the physicist in an interview...

RH: Getting back to the origins of the field, I thought if the earth's field had this neat explanation, it fit the data pretty nicely. Well, maybe God made the fields of all the other planets and parts of our solar system the same way. So I just said, well, I'll apply the same theory to the Sun, Moon, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. And what would the fields be there? At that time space probes had measured some of those fields but not all of them, so for the ones the space probes had measured it fit the theory very nicely. So when I published that in December, 1984, for the Creation Research Society Quarterly, for the two planets that had not been measured, Uranus and Neptune, I made a prediction that if the theory's any good then the strength of the [magnetic] field for those two planets should be such and such. My prediction for the planet Uranus was about 100,000 times larger than what evolutionary predictions were. This is a good test. Lets see where the chips fall. Then Voyager 2, I think it was, went by the planet Uranus in 1986 and it was right smack in the middle of the range of my predictions.

I wish there was a forum rule about starting threads on the exact same subject.
Let me ask you a question Nick. Why are you so angry? How does someone elses belief in the theory of evolution effect you?
Why are you hell bent on insulting Christians who are not YECs?

No rule about it, but it is considered good net-iquette to keep up with threads that you yourself have started.  Hit and run posting with no intention of discussion is rather lame.

Since when has the critieria of "nonsense" kept certain people from publishing this stuff?

Chris :scratch: :( :( :eek:

Oddly enough a person studying astronomy isn't called an evolutionist. The guy can't really be that reliable if he doesn't even know what an Astronom is...
