I've been keeping score:

Discoveries attributable to the scientific method -- 500 billion.
Discoveries attributable to creation science -- zero.

I like it! :-)

You might want to add this one to your "SOME LINKS DEBUNKING "YOUNG EARTH" BELIEFS" section.

>Actually the movie, "The Thirteenth Warrior" was based on a novel by Michael Creighton named "Eaters of the Dead" . . .

Thanks for the info.

Those are good, but probably not necessary. I've already got a link to The Age of the Universe and SN1987A, which shows that lightspeed hasn't changed for 170,000 years. That's far back enough to deal with the YEC claims.

My own gutsy theory and I am sure a politically incorrect one for those who dare.....(it has very little in the way of known (to me)facts to back it up.....just a hunch...)

.....Europeans and probably Asians are a blend of Homo erectus/Neanderthal. and whatever groups migrated from Africa 40,000 years ago....

.....the mixture worked....but the 2 groups that they spawned from didst work...one of those groups is dead, but lives on in the hybrid. the other of the 2 is a dead end that hasn't passed into history yet.

flame away.

[New evidence has emerged that Neanderthals co-existed with anatomically modern humans for at least 1,000 years in central France. The finding suggests Neanderthals came to a tragic and lingering end.]


IBF!

Great link.

[PatrickHenry]

I got it from RA.

I loved that book. The movie the "13th Warrior" was okay. But I really enjoyed the novel. It makes alot of sense but I wonder how it fits into the Intelligent Design theory.

The point I was making was the connection to Beowulf.

[chesley]

Hell, I liked the original "Beowulf"; but I liked "Eaters of the Dead", and the movie, "The 13th Warrior", too.

"The Thirteenth Warrior" is a re-write of Beowulf.

There were no Muslims in Beowolf.

"And if you routinely see something called a new "specie" popping out from nowhere, you should stop drinking whatever you're drinking."

If I see something called specie popping into existence from nowhere, I'll start believing in leprechauns. They (specie) are worth a fair penny these days.

[HitmanLV]

Interbreeding resulted, meaning that what we, today, supposedly carry some of the genetic legacy of the Neanderthals.

Well, that explains more than a bit about me. Thanks!

"There were no Muslims in Beowolf."

Acquaint yourself with the distinction between a re-write and a translation.
