That's right --- appeal to authority.
Like Joshua failed to do and ended up having to put up with the Gibeonites for the rest of his life.
Ask your prophet.
Didn't he write The Preservation of Favoured Races under inspiration?
Doesn't he say that baby would be a "glorified ape"?The earth can be 6100 years old existentially, and 4.57 billion years old physically --- yes.
(I see I'm going to have to go dig up my bicycle thread that shows an object having two different ages, depending on how you look at it.)
No --- but what if I did?Nice dodge. Am I right or not that the real reason you refuse to even conside E.A. may be wrong is that you prayed and God told you it was.
No --- but what if I did?
Are you against prayer?
If the word "divine" is confusing you, change it to "spiritual"."Prophet" implies there's some divine influence. Darwin had no divine influence, and "race" then was closer to "species" than it is now. Darwin made his conclusions based on observation, not divine intervention. Observation is the only one of the two that holds any real weight.
Would I be right if I said birds are dinosaurs?The baby isn't a "glorified ape", as a human baby, it's an ape, not glorified, just a species of ape. As a veloceraptor, it's a theropod dinosaur. It's quite clearly both.
I disagree: 1.Something can't be two different ages, which ever way you look at it.
It depends on the prayer.One person acting physically can achieve more than 10,000 people praying.
It depends on the prayer.

Yes, you would. In the same way we're apes, and wolves are dogs.Would I be right if I said birds are dinosaurs?
The new bicycle would be a few seconds old, it'd just be a really rubbish bicycle. The individual parts of it would be the same age too, they'd all be 35 years old.I disagree: 1.
I received the gift of salvation by praying for it.No it doesn't.
John 6:37 said:All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.
I received the gift of salvation by praying for it.
That's something 10,000 x 10,000 people couldn't do for me --- save me.
Yes, it does depend on the prayer.
But if you read through this, it clearly does nothing to prove your point. The bicycle is 35 years old because the parts of which it's constructed are all 35 years old. There is no "new" bicycle, just a reconfiguration of old bicycle parts. If I were to get this bicycle for Christmas, I wouldn't tell my friends it was a new bike.I disagree: 1.

When the ride is over though, we'll see who gets off where.You keep telling yourself that prayer somehow grants you salvation from death.
You keep telling yourself that prayer holds any meaning whatsoever.
You keep telling yourself all this nonsense.
We'll keep laughing at you, and advancing mankind, with action, not prayer. We'll see who ends up taking their little fail boat and sailing down a certain creek, without a paddle, on their knees praying there are no waterfalls.
How did you know you received salvation?I received the gift of salvation by praying for it.

Yes, it does depend on what you're praying for.

"Because god said it, I believe it, and that settles it."How did you know you received salvation?
Like I said, it depends on how you look at it.But if you read through this, it clearly does nothing to prove your point.

My goal with that is to show that an object can have two different ages: one physical and one existential.And, since you're not implying that God created the "new" Earth out of older bits floating around the universe, it's nonsense.
Did you read the verse I quoted?How did you know you received salvation?
