I mean they couldn't even get things right with Coelecanth which was supposed to be extinct a mere 50,000 years. And you all think they got it right in the muti-millions?????

They find dino blood vessels and collagen, and are willing to throw out everything they thought correct about the scientifically proven life of biological matter, as long as the dates themselves are not questioned, which processes are based upon assumptions, not actual experiments as per biological matter and decay!!!!!

And you wonder why we shake our heads incredulously.....
No, we know why.

The creationist use of the word "lie" is so strange and inconsistent.

If the billions of years of history that are clearly visible in nature are a lie, then he would be calling God a liar, since God is the only one powerful enough to manipulate the universe itself to tell that lie.

Because I dont read lies.
Then how do you know that they’re lying and that you’re not just mistaken? I’ve read creationist literature and that is WHY I know that they leave out pertinent details and ( in some cases deliberately) misinform people . I contrasted what creationists said with what mainstream scientists said and I compared the verifiable evidence to both .

Why do you think it's a lie and not just wrong? A lie is an intentional falsehood--what's the intention?
Obviously its a strategy of Satan to discredit the Bible and lead people away from God.

Or I belive in every word of God and know the earth is not that old.
It helps if you remember that God created this earth . Which means that nature doesn’t lie. Mainstream Scientists only report what nature tells them about itself . They don’t make it up. Creationists on the other hand ,have to fabricate just-so stories about Nature in order for those stories in the bible to fit. Since accurate science is vital to agriculture, technology and medicine , pseudoscience is not acceptable because getting this wrong has killed people in the past. Pseudoscientific ignorance based on an ideology has already killed millions of people because of famine due to poor agricultural practices directly based on denial of evolution/ natural selection in Soviet Russia under Stalin. I don’t want to see that here.

Medical research in dogs involving diabetes and heart disease has lead to millions of lives being saved ( and not just human lives) but creationists deny common descent without understanding that the only reason this research was done in the first place is because doctors knew that humans were related to dogs.

If you know someone with heart problems or diabetes , understand completely that your creationist ignorance and stupidity over evolution could have cost your friend, acquaintance or relatives their lives . This might just become a problem if they teach creationist pseudoscience in the schools

Some of them do on occasion, but then other scientists call them out on it. If one scientist sees that another one's conclusions are wrong, or even worse - deliberately misleading - they will immediately reveal it and discredit them. That's why the idea of a worldwide scientific conspiracy is so ridiculous. Scientists won't let their scientific rivals get away with shoddy work and lies.

The applied scientific benefits of evolution, particularly in medicine, are among its most useful and helpful. I fail to see any benefits which 'creation science' offers in this same regard. Ignorance and heads stuck into the sand are not benefits.

More academic propaganda.

From the link:

"At least that is the story according to a new paper published today in Science, where researchers argue an iconic fossil from this time period is the oldest known animal that would have been visible without the help of a microscope. If correct, the finding settles a 70-year-old debate and could help explain the emergence of more advanced life-forms on our once-barren planet."

As Zenith wouldn't say:

The quality doesn't go in, before the name goes on.

They'll probably Nebraska Man this thing later, then print a retraction on page sixteen.

If you don't read then you are in no position to comment. You've already admitted you are ignorant of the details being discussed. Stop trolling.
