I am not a slave, I am free to do whatever I want to do. I just try to do what is best for me so I do not suffer the consequences.

Your logic would say that honest people are slaves because they do not want to break the law and get thrown in jail or have to suffer the consequences in some other way.

Everything?????

Of course there are amphibians alive today, they are an evolutionary success story....tiktaalik is not in the sense that it no longer exists.

I do not have any reason to question geology. Neither does wise and most christian geologists. The OEC view is based on geology.
But you view is based on the Bible. That's why you quote it so much.

I use science also. That is what gets people upset because I look for the inconsistancy and use science against science to show that evolution is not true.

In some ways science welcomes this. I have heard it said what does not kill you will make you stronger. If I point out the weakness in their arguement, that gives them the oportunity to deal with that weakness and become stronger in what they believe. That is what they mean when they say iron sharpens iron.

It is like the early church, the more they were persecuted the stronger they got. But when the persecution was over, then the church started to die.
