Well, now that's funny --- can you explain this in light of the fact that I say there is no science associated with the Creation?Now who's mixing the Bible with a personalised (in your case, very personalised) brand of science?
God stated what He did, how He did it, where He did it, when He did it, why He did it, and even who the eyewitnesses were. What more do you want?I have but one question: assuming your assumption about embedded age is correct, why didn't God at least include an explanation, a hint or something to that effect in the Bible?
I want a reason to believe your concept of embedded age. So far, all I've seen are unsupported speculations from a person I don't trust about a collection of stories I don't trust either.God stated what He did, how He did it, where He did it, when He did it, why He did it, and even who the eyewitnesses were.

Good luck, then, Diogenes.I want a reason to believe your concept of embedded age. So far, all I've seen are unsupported speculations from a person I don't trust about a collection of stories I don't trust either.
You know, I may not have learned a lot of things in my time, but there's one thing I definitely know: if you think you understand something but you can't explain it to another person, you never understood it in the first place.Good luck, then, Diogenes.
Just browse this thread, and you'll see why no one understands it.You know, I may not have learned a lot of things in my time, but there's one thing I definitely know: if you think you understand something but you can't explain it to another person, you never understood it in the first place.
Nobody understands it because there is nothing to understand. It's an internally contradictory concept, a logical impossibility and bad theology to boot.Just browse this thread, and you'll see why no one understands it.
Then we see where the problem lies, don't we?Nobody understands it because there is nothing to understand. It's an internally contradictory concept, a logical impossibility and bad theology to boot.
No, the earth does not bear false witness to the Creation; and no, God did not make it that way.
The earth does not point to the Creation Event at all --- for that, you need the Bible.
And just by coincidence, you picked my opinions, right?
Well, you won't see the day you refute this 'ol boy's opinions --- especially on the Creation --- which is my forte.
You are???
Well, English Atheists are kinda strange. They gave us the Bible in the first place, then wonder why we use It so effectively.
Where does it say that Adam was created as a mature human? Besides, creating a human being with the body and mind of an adult does not equal "embedding age" into it anymore than constructing a contemporary forgery of a Louis XIV desk does.
Well, in the meantime, why don't you brush up on Genesis 1 and see if you have any [more] questions for me.
He asked for questions and I gave him questions. He can answer some, all or none; he has chosen to answer none.Do you expect AV to write a book for your questions? I won't ask so many questions if I really want to have any useful answer back.
But, just let you know that ALL these questions have been discussed extensively in the Origin Theology forum. If fact, if you are able to ask a "new" question, you would really be a good theologian.
QV please.Can you now comment on the concept of embedded age, in the light of your assertion that the earth does not bear false witness to the Creation, and your admission that God does not deceive.
Many thanks.

The definition of EMBEDDED AGE
Maturity without history.
Keep in mind:
- Only God can do it.
- It is an act of omnipotence - not science - and therefore cannot be verified.
- Since it cannot be verified, documentation would be necessary for clarification.
QV post 8 please.He asked for questions and I gave him questions. He can answer some, all or none; he has chosen to answer none.
Not even close --- they are embedded in an instantaneously-created universe. You're making it sound like He waited 6100 years, then embedded age.You accept the scientifically determined ages and just say that they're embedded in a 6100 year old universe.
