False. They used the present as the key already, before I started to bust their blalls.

Agreed. We were all created yesterday by Russell's Teapot, and the only reason we look old and have memories is because the laws of physics governing how things age and how memory is created were different yesterday before the split. I wish everyone would wake up and stop with this same-state past madness

Really, everytime I wake up, nothing is the same and everything is different. My brother and I just had a conversation and it would appear he remembers things different from the way I remember them. In fact it is very difficult to get any two honest people to agree on anything that has taken place in the past. Then you have Physicists who say there is a parallel universe(s) where different possible realitys play themselves out.

If something bad happens, it has to be for SOME reason!
That's what Taoism is about -- reestablishing harmony between good and evil, light and dark, positive and negative, etc and so forth.

Funny, when I wake up it is the same. When I read history, it is the same. But there is a limit to how far back we actually know about. Don't be so extreme.

Still pretending to be an expert on the Tao, AV -- is there anything you won't act like an authority about?

One can no more do that for than against. Not as far as science goes. We need more....hence the records.

Let's start with the fact that I've given you the example of radiological dating.

And let me ask you this... If you admit there is no evidence to support your claim, why do you believe it?

ALL evidence supports a different state past...bible and pagan records. NONE support a same state past. Science first assumes it, THEN builds stuff on that. If there was no decay in the past, then decay so called dating is nonsense.

Unfortunately, they only go back a few thousand years. The universe is much older than that.

Oh, and I'm still waiting for you to show this alleged evidence of yours.

NONE support a same state past.

Why should it if it is wrong?

Science first assumes it, THEN builds stuff on that. If there was no decay in the past, then decay so called dating is nonsense.

if there was no decay in the past, then Rubidium-strontium dating would give results that do not agree with uranium-lead dating which would likewise disagree with carbon-nitrogen dating.

And yet these techniques are all in agreement.

Why is that, Dad?

You fail to provide evidence to support your position, and you fail to show why my position is flawed.

Recorded history only goes back so far. In my family they only have written records back to around 800 ad. God has provided natural records for us. There is a record in the DNA, also Geology contains a record of the natural world. It is difficult to get people to agree. I asked a friend of mine with a phd in physics about the string theory and he got upset and said he never studied it and does not accept it. All I know about it is an hour program I saw on PBS TV and even with his PHD he does not seem to even know that much about it.

IN YOUR DREAMS. Unfortunate for you. Not me.

My point exactly, it is wrong.

How? Why? Explain?

With themselves only. Fairy tales do likewise.

I disagree. You only claim it is a record of this nature because this is where we see it from. If it was a different nature in the past, we would still see what we see.


It is difficult to get people to agree. I asked a friend of mine with a phd in physics about the string theory and he got upset and said he never studied it and does not accept it. All I know about it is an hour program I saw on PBS TV and even with his PHD he does not seem to even know that much about it.

The string theory is nonsense. Just adding more and longer strings to this present state laws...

The Bible and Pagan records, of course.

And you should find out how radioisotopic dating works, and then try and figure out for yourself why if there was no decay in the past, uranium-lead, and rubidium-strontium dating shouldn't agree with each other. It'll be good for you.

Sorry to hear you had problems. Not sure if debating evolution will help. Maybe a good time to think about love and family, and whatever good things are around.....

It is a bit like asking why those that chose to believe in Jesus will never die in the future. If all we do is look at how we are all dying now, it will not address how it will be then. If we look at how we again will see our loved ones there, as opposed to how they are ripped away from us now, we will see that the present is not any key to the future.

And in reality too, which you would see if you actually bothered to learn about reality.

My point exactly, it is wrong.

Yes. Old stories that do not indicate an ancient world are wrong.

How? Why? Explain?

Because the different radioactive materials decay at different known rates. So, if we try several dating techniques, one would say, for example, that the subject is 50,000 years old, one would say a million, one would say ten million and another would say 700 million.


Just explained above.

With themselves only. Fairy tales do likewise.

Okay, you show me two completely different fairy tales that agree with each other. What part of Goldilocks is in agreement with Snow White, for example?
