>>Yes, I believe the Universe is apx 6-7000 years old.<<
Interesting. Just out of curiosity, how do you explain the red shift? Just looking for closure.
>>Cold blooded reptiles coexist with warm blooded mammals today. I don’t see why reptiles and mammals can’t live on the same planet.<<
So the fact that there have never been found Homo Sapien and, for example, Tyrannosaurus Rex bones within the same strata is just a chance non-occurrence? If, as you suggest, Humans and Dinosaurs existed together we should find contemporary remains, right?
In re: red shift, I believe that God created things in mature states. For instance, if Adam had cut down a tree the first few days, there would have been rings. Even though the tree had been standing there “full grown.”
Think about Jesus turning the water into wine in Galilee.
How do we turn water into wine? We pour it near a grapevine, the water wicks up the stem, goes into the grapes, they ripen, we harvest, we crush, we filter, we store for years or what have you (pardon me if I leave out a step or two, I have never made wine). At the end we have a delicious product that is the fruit of perhaps many years’ work.
Jesus did it instantaneously. But if you have put a drop of His wine on a microscope slide, it probably would have looked just like a nice wine made the traditional way.
Normally, light travels at a certain speed. But God isn’t under any compulsion to do things normally.
As for no human fossils being found next to dinosaur fossils, if you say so, I’ll take you at your word. I have mentioned the Paluxy River Bed in previous posts. But, I have been informed that the human fossil footprints next to the dino tracks there are suspect in some way. I don’t know.
But I ask you, because I don’t know the answer, what types of fossils ARE found near dino fossils? Is there a large variety, or just a few things? Is the mere absence of human fossils next to dino fossils proof that men never lived on this earth at the same time as they?
