The passage implicitly asserts that human history is not ancient (in respect to written history). It says not a thing about the age of the earth. Nothing in the article does.

eep!

degenerate, not denigrate

Remember, as an Evolutionist, you cant use GENESIS.

Who are you to say? Did God sign over a copyright to you or something?

[King Prout]

fortunately, Genesis was not required :)

biff-baff this person around if you wish, I have run out of crazy-pills and just can't face another iteration of his -um- unique insights on science.

Scientists find missing link between weasels and Democrats.

...ummm, do you have something like.... a "private" life?! You should stay away from books/computers for a while!

[King Prout]

wow... it has been half an hour, and still no glib response from Dr. Quest's redshirted sidekick.

shocking, really.

No, young-Earth Bible believing Christians was what was being referred to. They started most of our (and the world's) great universities you know.

Name ONE! The YEC hype has been debunked earlier.

[WildTurkey]

Better spell out what you are referring to here. Arabic numerals?

I did spell it out. I said the one upon which all modern advances in technology is based. They may have been YEC's but I really doubt it.

Name ONE!

Oxford.

Are you talking about calculus? Descartes and Newton were both Christians. And Newton especially was a YECer.

[Doctor Stochastic]

OK, so where's the young girl in the red track suit, swinging a hammer to throw into the machine?

[WildTurkey]

Oxford.

I find it very amusing that you would pick that one and NOT name the founder ...

I was being sarcastic. Of course, the arabic numeral system.

[King Prout]

eh?

oh.

a rough analogue of that comes in stage three of the dialectic.

almost nobody ever gets that far before their brains go into vapor-lock.

[Doctor Stochastic]

It's only 1,000,000 Years BC but I liked this picture better.

[Doctor Stochastic]

Do you drain the resevoir before crossing the rainbow or afterwards?

[JeffAtlanta]

I still hear references to the great bottleneck 70,000 years ago

Not sure how this plays into creationism, but 70,000 years old does correspond to the great Toba eruption. The human race apparently came pretty close to being wiped out.

[Tribune7]

There really wasn't one particular founder. It simply evolved under the auspices of Bible-believing Catholic clerics.

[Tribune7]

I don't know enough about Hindu history to say for sure, but I'd be surprised if those who developed the concept of zero and the Arabic numerals believed in an old Earth and evolution.
