$10 if you can get him to say that. I imagine you'll get a hundred random links he claims "prove" his proposition. And when you refuse to waste your time reading his nonsense, he'll claim victory.Does that mean he's thrown in the towel on the subject of the thread, do you think?

Get the feeling he may not be taking your sound advice on board?3 Angels Messages --
If you're interested in actually discussing some of the science involved in evolution and related fields, pick one piece of evidence or one argument that you think is strong, and describe it in your own words. Then we can talk about it. What you've been doing -- cutting and pasting huge swathes of stuff that no sane person will bother to read -- accomplishes nothing but the irritation of a bunch of electrons for no good reason.
Some gibberish about the Catholic Church considering a doctrine of seperation of church and state to be heresy, and that the church still demands the execution of heretics under cannon law. When I asked for evidence, I got spammed with 300 links to looniness about freemasons and the Temple of Solomon. Or something. Ever try to read Timecube? It was a bit like that.Blackwater Babe,
Not sure what the signature Reagan photo and quote but it reminded me of this speech.

...I use to be afraid of OEC because I thought it would be way to difficult. As it turns out when your ready for it, the numbers are very easy to work with. There is no doubt a fifth grader can do all of this. In fact Jesus said you have to be as a child to understand.
You just have to disregard all that pesky science.If you believed in a straightforward exegetical reading of Genesis merely out of fear, that it's good you left. But there's nothing to fear in embracing it.
But I can tell you you're ripping out of context Jesus' teaching about child-like faith. He was not addressing the origins issue or age of the earth at all. It sounds like you may have been a YEC for all the wrong reasons.
I'm not a YEC because I fear OEC. In fact I used to be one! I'm YEC because it's the most straightforward way to read the text, and it resonates with logic much better that OEC and TE models. But that's just me.
That's what evolutionist does. Every time they find contradicting evidence they just make up a new story.You just have to disregard all that pesky science.
You spend a lot of time reading scientific publications in evolutionary biology?That's what evolutionist does. Every time they find contradicting evidence they just make up a new story.
Some. I think most scientist knows about the problems of evolution but smart enough to pay enough lip-service to the current theory.You spend a lot of time reading scientific publications in evolutionary biology?
What, specifically? You've just maligned an entire field of science, and the scientists in it. So please step up and point out specific problems with specific papers.Some.
I think you have no idea what most scientists know.I think most scientist knows about the problems of evolution but smart enough to pay enough lip-service to the current theory.
You just have to disregard all that pesky science.
Yep! For instance there's that pesky event about Jesus rising from the dead after 3 days. Science says that's impossible. Science is wrong in that regard. It's wrong about origins too.
