Do you make your bed with the sheet on top and the blanket on the bottom?Why would God decide to arrange the fossils in an order consistent with evolution?
But your interpretation Of Isaiah 28:10 is entirely out of context and unrelated to the clear import of the text. It's not just making scripure relevant to today, it's a grotesque and self-serving misuse of the Bible. Why do you think Christians like me come here to argue with creationists? Do you really think we care that much about the theory of evolution? No, it's to combat the insult to God's holy word on which creationism is based--you have provided a clearcut example which I will refer to constantly in future.It's both.
What do you think this is about?
Job 38:35 Canst thou send lightnings, that they may go, and say unto thee, Here we are?
Do you think it's just relevant to Job's time?
Or is the Bible unique, in that It is a live Book ... like It says It is?
Are you telling me that a man who tells his son he (the man) did something "decently and in order" IS NOT giving the son the impression that his father does other things "decently and in order"?But your interpretation Of Isaiah 28:10 is entirely out of context and unrelated to the clear import of the text.
And that you get to dictate what the order is? Not a chance.Are you telling me that a man who tells his son he (the man) did something "decently and in order" IS NOT giving the son the impression that his father does other things "decently and in order"?
I think the ground dictates the order.And that you get to dictate what the order is? Not a chance.
Because the only description of the shape of the earth given during the creation events is "without form."Here's one: Why is denying deep time based on your interpretation of scripture different from denying a spheroid earth based on your interpretation of scripture?
Deceptive. how is the order in which fossils are found being 'tidy'? Why not just be honest about the facts, is there something to hide?Okay, so if I told you then that it is possible that God could have layered the earth like it is, in accordance with the way He wrote His scriptures ...
Isaiah 28:10 For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
... when He cleaned up after the Flood and terraformed the Earth back to a habitable planet within the space of one or two weeks, you would what?
Accuse Him of being tidy, or accuse Him of being deceptive?
So you're saying it's not tidy?Deceptive. how is the order in which fossils are found being 'tidy'? Why not just be honest about the facts, is there something to hide?
Did I miss the bit about why He put the fossils there at all?Deceptive. how is the order in which fossils are found being 'tidy'? Why not just be honest about the facts, is there something to hide?
I hope so.Did I miss the bit about why He put the fossils there at all?
In what way does burying the cambrian fossils 3 miles down, the Mississippian fossils 2 miles down, and the cretatious fossils 1 mile down constitute a design for optimum operation?Do you make your bed with the sheet on top and the blanket on the bottom?
Should cars have their tires on the roof, and their roofs on the bottom?
Or were they intelligently designed for optimum operation?
Beats me.In what way does burying the cambrian fossils 3 miles down, the Mississippian fossils 2 miles down, and the cretatious fossils 1 mile down constitute a design for optimum operation?
Beats me.
Suit yourself.Then "optimum operation" can take a hike.
Ah your God arranged the fossils in an order consistent with evolution, since for some reason that is the optimum order, but you have no idea why that is optimum?Beats me.

I'm not buying it.
No such luck. Fruiting trees are said in Genesis to be before all sea animals, but the record shows otherwise. Likewise whales are not as deep as they would be if be based on genesis 1.Suit yourself.
Perhaps He arranged them in the order that the kinds were created in Genesis 1?
I don't know.
I do know, however, that Noah and his family weren't the only persons around.
Angels were there as well.
So perhaps the order of arrangement is a message to them about something.
Don't know.
Fair enough.No such luck.
