Shiva Danced the Universe into Being!

[camas]

thanks, i had forgotten that.

[Publius6961]

Aren't these reports/discussions usually accompanied by maps? Where are the maps?
How does this tie in with the huge "lake" several thousand feet below the ice surface?

[Doctor Stochastic]

Bah, you're all just figments of my imagination and I'm just a brain in a jar.

OK, Donovan, how did you get Nancy to agree to be in your movie?

[Doctor Stochastic]

Any evidence of another iridium layer? Perhaps the impact wasn't as effusive.

[RightWhale]

Blah blah blah blah blah...

Hadn't though of that excellent argument.

[RightWhale]

This is interesting. Maybe for the next one we will have the technology in place to capture the asteroid and mine it and run the L-5 Society program.

[Doctor Stochastic]

Note the error in the first sentence of the Enoch Calendar.

[Alas Babylon!]

Year Zero?

[balrog666]

Note the error in the first sentence of the Enoch Calendar.

Nobody said they knew how to count either.

[StolarStorm]

You're confused. Each 24 hour period in God Time is actually a billion years. Consider that our time system is based upon earth rotation which has changed over the years.

[HawkeyeLonewolf]

If the Earth was created around 10,000 years ago, why would God place all this misleading evidence in the geological record that suggests a much older Earth?

Such as???

The only thing that makes it "seem" older are flawed dating methods imagined by men.

[HawkeyeLonewolf]

Since it SAYS 24 hour period, it's the same day we know as a day.

The word used for day ONLY means a 24 hour day.

God doesn't mince words.

[HawkeyeLonewolf]

I'm not confused IN THE SLIGHTEST.

Plain reading of scripture is clear. SIX literal days of creation.

Nothing in the fossil record contradicts this.

Nothing in the evidence we have contradicts this.

Pretty simple.

[sonofatpatcher2]

Hey! eFing recreates himself every few days, so what's new?

[StolarStorm]

Actually, there's plenty of evidence in the fossil record that contradicts your belief. There's also countless evidence from many areas of science that do that as well. But the fact is, like a devout follower of Islam, you are blind to certain facts and will likely remain so forever.

You want to believe the literal aspect of Genesis at all costs, and that's cool if that's what you want, but don't pretend to have a lock on the truth because you don't. There are many ministers, priests, and hundreds of millions of Christians that don't agree with your itrepretation of Genesis.

Just a hint though.... day meant period of time in Hebrew. The bible DOES NOT indicate a literal time span. You need to get a better bible translation.

But I do like your bumber sticker designs on your profile. :)

[HawkeyeLonewolf]

Thanks for the compliments on the designs :)

However, you're incorrect. The word used "yom" only means a literal 24 hour period -- and as I said, no one questions it EXCEPT in the first part of Genesis.

And, in fact, there is no evidence that contradicts.

There is evidence, period. It really neither supports or contradicts creation or evolution, it just is.

THERE ARE THEORIES about the evidence that contradict creation, but the evidence itself does not.

I am not blind to anything, either. I used to be a believer in evolution and the big bang -- then I matured and realized I was wrong.

[lepton]

Since it SAYS 24 hour period, it's the same day we know as a day.

It does not in anyway specify 24, much less 24 hours.

By the way, since you are relying upon the infallibility of human language, perhaps you'd like to compare the use of any number of words which have changed conotation in the last 50 years just in the U.S., much less the changes between the time the King James Bible was translated, and now.

There are several other layers of things you are overlooking in making such a brash claim.

And just because you will probably come to this sooner or later: I believe that God created the Heavens and Earth. I just think you undermine your own case with your claims.

[HawkeyeLonewolf]

[HawkeyeLonewolf]

First, my claim is on fact, nothing "brash"

Second, I've undermined nothing by stating the Biblical case. THere is no need to compromise truth for the best guesses of scientists when truth fits.

The word used for day is (Strongs 03117) yowm (pronounced: yome). This word when used with a number (first, second, etc) ALWAYS in HEBREW means a literal 24 hour period. That's the way the Hebrew has always been.

So yes, Scripture DOES clearly specify a 24 hour period. And to make it even MORE clear, God uses "the evening and the morning" before it -- just to make sure people wouldn't play fast and loose with the term.

Sadly, they still do.
