Cleaning the T. Rex cage must have been interesting

I would hate to have been the guy whose job it was to round up and herd a couple of T. rexes onto the ark.

This Memorial Day weekend marks the opening of the new Creation Museum in Petersburg, Ky., which purports to tell the history of the world based on creationism instead of evolution...

I just want to know who’s responsible for the Unicorns missing the sail date....(chuckle)

I can't find the Far Side comic, but after that "little incident" the carnivores were restricted to their own deck on the ark.

Does this doofus know that Charles Darwin died a devout Methodist?

"And God created the platypus, and said, 'Let's see the evolutionists figure this one out!'"

‘I can’t find the Far Side comic, but after that “little incident” the carnivores were restricted to their own deck on the ark.’

(chuckle) Pretty sure I know which one you are talking about.

I love Far Side.

"Is this supposed to be witty? Or is it just bad writing?"

I'm gonna say both.

Darwin did not die a devout Methodist.

Genesis 6:20

Two of every kind of bird, of every kind of animal and of every kind of creature that moves along the ground will come to you to be kept alive.

science has proven that the dinosaurs lived millions of years ago and died out about 65 million years ago. You can't argue with carbon dating because it's how we all got here since dating is essential to the survival of us carbon-based life forms.

What a drooling cretin. Carbon dating is only used back to about 60,000 years. Other radioisotopes (like lead/uranium) are used for older dates.

Thanks for the suggestion.  I'd recommend for your viewing pleasure Growing Up in the Universe.

“You can debate science, but not religion. Most people can’t be reasoned out of religion because they weren’t reasoned into it.”

Especially if their religion is secular humanism.

There are a lot of good links dealing radiocarbon dating on my FR homepage.

"Especially if their religion is secular humanism.'

One doesn't reason oneself into what is. Reality is for denyin', or dealing with, but creating it ex nihilo isn't a job for the ordinary joe.

Give it up - you have no chance with her - her boyfriend is hung like a...well, you probably see where this is going...

science has proven that the dinosaurs lived millions of years ago and died out about 65 million years ago.

Into this bucket we must also put the coelecanth and that rodent that was found for sale at the Asian meat market the other day. Both species "died out" 65 million years ago. Science lacks the ability to "prove" this sort of thing, which is why they sometimes get it wrong.

Some evolutionists like to claim that their beliefs have been "proven" but if pushed enough they say that science doesn't really deal with "proof". Which is true. But they like to make good rhetorical use of the word.

That’s how all the dinosaurs died silly, Noah didn’t take them on the ark. Apparently, dinosaurs were not classified as “animals” by the zoologists of Noah’s time. Therefor, they were left off the animal manifest.

[The Blitherer]

Richard Dawkins? Really? If I can find a way to watch it without paying a dime to that guy, I will.

[pby]

And even though Darwin did not die a "devout Methodist", what would that really mean if he was?

Look at these Methodists:

- Walter Mondale

- Hillary Clinton

- Jocelyn Elders

- John Edwards

- Stephen King

- Ted Bundy

Being labled a "Methodist" may not really mean that much.

You know... I understand people who don't want to believe the bible's version of creation. That God "spoke" everything into existence. It is a matter of faith.

It would make sense that a scientist might believe that some advanced culture chose to plant life here on earth in some star trek method. But the idea that it sprang from non-life and created itself, modified itself etc in so many different ways, (including a gazillion species of animal life, plant life etc) through mutation.... I mean really.... what idiot truly believes that?

[applpie]

wanna bet? actually although some of us may have initially become christians by faith, the more we study the more reason why find to believe.

the bible and its amazing characteristics in so many areas including history, archaeology, science, prophecy, and as an ancient text itself are truly a reason to believe.

creation and related scientific finds is another.

i believe NOW because i know. if i only had my faith without my head knowledge, i would stumble alot more when times get tough. that is why it is a shame for people to take on the faith and then go no further. because they will never know why they believe and I believe they will be weaker disciples.
