Sorry, "pwn you?"Just in this thread only, I'm a YEC --- pwn me.
Sorry, "pwn you?"
You are over 50 and you actually use such crap in a debate?
I don't need to "pwn" you, science has done that for me.
Sorry, "pwn you?"
I know what the term means, my 12 year old brother uses it, I'm just baffled why someone your age would use it.Ya --- "pwn me" --- if you don't know what the term means, feel free to Google it.

Genesis 1 is not figurative, and Moses, if he was making a reference here to the literal amount of time that passed in Genesis 1 (i.e. 6000 years vs. 6 days) ---
[bible]Psalm 90:4[/bible]
--- would still be off by about, 4.569994 billion years.
Oh, come on. Are you serious with this?
I would expect a cardiologist who knows his Bible to be sensitive to the passages that deal with the heart --- wouldn't you?
"Here" is the key word here.
In respect to the Scriptures --- or in spite of the Scriptures?
Excuse me?
Jesus is [ultimately] the One Who wrote Genesis 1.
I'll vouch that [most] geologists try to discredit YEC --- but the Word of our LORD shall stand forever, and that means It's meaning will too.
Well, it's not a very good first impression, neither is your signature, so let me ask you, you care to explain why all scientif evidence points towards an old earth?I wasn't aware it's off-limits to "old men."
Would "zwischenzug" suffice?
And we all know Jesus' proclivity for telling parables and fictional stories to prove a point -- and his own explanation that he did this so that people who didn't get the parables (for example, people who only understand them literally) wouldn't get the point.

From a YEC would be a good start.Well, since this is a test thread - and I'm not actually a YEC - how do you want me to answer this? From my perspective, or from [what I think is] the YEC perspective?

... so let me ask you, you care to explain why all scientif evidence points towards an old earth?
Because scientific evidence is misinterpreted?
Unless I'm missing something --- the parables were meant to be taken literally. They are stories about things that actually happened and, in my opinion, Jesus Himself witnessed.
You should see my caption.
But AV, if you really believed that caption, you wouldn't need "embedded age" at all.
Just stick to your "The world was create 6100 years ago" guns, claim that all radiometric dating is wrong, because all the results have been misinterpreted, and if anyone tries to convince you otherwise, just repeat your caption and /thread out of there.
See? You'd be a natural YEC, and it would require only a minimal change in your current posting habits.
I think you know what I mean.
Science, insofar as it disagrees with the Bible, can take a hike.
Ok, that is the most narrow-minded comment I have read.I think you know what I mean.

Well guess what, I have news for you, the bible isn't a science textbook.
If you assume the psalm is intended to give a mathematical formula to calculate the length of a day. The fact Moses compares a thousand years to a yom, or a watch in the night goes against this mathematical formula interpetation. Or Moses could simply be using a thousand years as an illustration to show God's idea of a day may be vastly longer than ours. What we can say is that he wrote a Psalm that looks at the creation of the world, and then tells us God's days aren't the same as our literal days. As Genesis and Exodus are the only places in the whole bible to mention a six day creation, and Moses doesn't even take God's days literally, YEC doesn't have a leg to stand on.Genesis 1 is not figurative, and Moses, if he was making a reference here to the literal amount of time that passed in Genesis 1 (i.e. 6000 years vs. 6 days) ---

You were talking about atheists who make a career studying rocks and then coming to the conclusion that Jesus isn't The Rock Why does the cardiologist have to know his bible to write a valentine card?Oh, come on. Are you serious with this?
I would expect a cardiologist who knows his Bible to be sensitive to the passages that deal with the heart --- wouldn't you?
You brought it up in this thread. I haven't come across any atheists who would claim 'Jesus said rocks can talk I'm a geologist and I know they don't'. Sorry AV, you are much more likely to hear creationist's coming up with an arguments like that."Here" is the key word here.
In respect to the Scriptures --- or in spite of the Scriptures?
Heb 1:1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world.Excuse me?
Jesus is [ultimately] the One Who wrote Genesis 1.
And since YEC is thoroughly discredited by geologists, it is not what God's word means.I'll vouch that [most] geologists try to discredit YEC --- but the Word of our LORD shall stand forever, and that means It's meaning will too.
