Test thread for YEC'ism.

Just in this thread only, I'm a YEC --- pwn me.

YEC is demonstrably untrue (figured out by Christians over a century ago).

Advocating YEC is bearing false witness (a non-christian pursuit).

Giving the Bible the attributes of God, like infallibility, is idolatry (theologically dangerous).

How's that?

YEC is demonstrably untrue (figured out by Christians over a century ago).

Let's see this/these brilliant demonstrations from over a century ago.

Advocating YEC is bearing false witness (a non-christian pursuit).

You put the "false" in my witness first, then I'll consider not bearing it.

Giving the Bible the attributes of God, like infallibility, is idolatry (theologically dangerous).

Jesus beat me to it ---

Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O LORD God of truth.

Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

How's that?

Strike three.

Jesus was referring to the Bible here?

It was Christian geologists who realised the great antiquity of the Earth.

You put the "false" in my witness first, then I'll consider not bearing it.

YEC has been proven false. There's your false right there. That you continue to forward an idea that has been proven false is the "bearing witness" part. Add them together and you have what I originally said.

Jesus beat me to it ---

None of those quotes mentions the Bible, let alone that the Bible is God. Jesus, being an honest fella, would never have been a YEC.

Strike three.

Something like that,

Dude, I was so stoned at the time, I don't even know what I was saying.

I have a holy book that tells me you're wrong.

Fine --- show me what he realized --- don't just yak about it.

YEC has been proven false.

Not in this thread --- it hasn't --- (not yet, anyway).

Jesus, being an honest fella, would never have been a YEC.

Oh, really?

But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.

This shows a man and a woman present at the Creation.

Fine --- I have no problem with that --- but if you're not interested in showing me anything --- please stop playing Johnny Pwn.

Charles Lyell who wrote Principles of Geology in 1830 was buried in Westminster Abbey. Look him up, investigate the science of geology. Heck investigate science. You'll find it's the honest pursuit of knowledge and investigation of the world we live in (this "creation"). I'm not doing your research for you, especially since you've made it abundantly clear you're not interested in truth or honesty.

Not in this thread --- it hasn't --- (not yet, anyway).

Maybe not in this thread, but in the real world. This "creation" shows YEC to be false at just about every turn.

This shows a man and a woman present at the Creation.

It says nothing more than human beings consist of males and females..

 

[Lazuline]

This shows a man and a woman present at the Creation.

If you're going to take it literally, it says "from the beginning of the creation," not at the end, like it says in Genesis.
But I guess there's nothing wrong with taking all but one or two words out of the sentence literally.

 

[TheBear]

I agree with Nathan Poe.....

Who cares?

What with all these "My Challenge" threads, and now this, you're really full of yourself.

 

[GrayCat]

Fine --- I have no problem with that --- but if you're not interested in showing me anything --- please stop playing Johnny Pwn.

What, you mean I have to actually show my evidence? Dammit.

Okay.. let's see.


The holy book is called the Necronomicon. Parts of it chronicle the descent of the Great Old Ones down from the stars to the planet Earth. They arrived millions of years before humans came into existence. If YEC were true, they would not exist, for YEC states that God created everything including humans in 7 days, and there is no mention of the Great Old Ones in the Bible.

So - your theory fails.

Carbon dating....

The Sumerian kings’ genealogies disproves the Biblical genealogies.

 

[POSW]

The Sumerian kings’ genealogies disproves the Biblical genealogies.

Just playing Devi -ahem- God's advocate here: how do we know that these Sumerian genealogies aren't flawed and the Biblical ones are?

 

[moogoob]

Ok, here's my question, AV. YOU might be a YEC, but why should I follow suit and believe your claims? Remember that I dismissed the Bible as a credible religious text when I gave up Catholicism, and never held it to be a valid scientific text.
