I'd be very surprised if human aging weren't under serious assault, if not completely conquered, by the time 2107 rolled around.Just what we need, a Hillary! that won't ever die...

When all the smaller “relatives” died off (I wonder why) what then, did the big guys eat; Garbanzo beans?

I am no evolutionist, but your “ballistic proof” is fool hardy at best, like Bart Sebral’s “we never landed on the moon” hooey.
God gave us serious minds to understand a serious and complex universe. Nothing “came from earth” and made craters on the moon.

I can't disagree with that.
Although I like these evolution arguments purely for entertainment value,
As far a science is concerned, I can shrug my shoulders and say we are only discovering what God already made, and leave it at that.
We are unlocking the mysteries of our biological nature and are at a point now where we can manipulate it, perhaps to our own undoing if we don't proceed with extreme caution.
The potential to unlock a biological disaster is very real. We've already seen the potential danger of how a mutation can cross the species barrier and have the potential to wipe out all those susceptible to that DNA sequence (prionic diseases).
We have to be careful.
To: Nathan Zachary
We have to be careful.And very wise.
And very, very lucky.

"Nothing came from earth and made craters on the moon." And you have proof, right? Thought NOT.
There is plenty of reason to suspect bits of the earth's crust were blasted out of earths atmosphere and formed comets and debri and either collided with other bodies in this system or returned home to rest.

You are kidding, right. Shot 7-20-07? That cartoon supposed to be live film?
Parts of the Earth were influx at the instant of creation when it formed, but what about now? What of asteroids.
Of course all this is irrelevant, here you go, observed Leonid Meteors hit the Moon in 1999:

Why is it that some Christians are afraid of science, so much so that the make some mighty big leaps in trying to explain things that need no explanation other than what was observed or studied. Nothing in observed science contradicts anything in the Bible.
The majesty of God’s creation is revealed more and more every day by our science. It is much more than some 6000 year old place with painted stars full of tricks to make us think it is much older. If he wanted simple he would have skipped free will and making us anything but automatons under his power.
The more we understand the depth and scope of the intricate mechanisms and physical wonders that abound around us, how truly awe inspiring and absolutely powerful God becomes to his belivers. That is a God I want to worship, not some Houdini playing tricks to make us look foolish and small.
One last thing, you tone in these messages is a bit over the top to be honest so I question your true positions and motives.

Nothing in observed science contradicts anything in the Bible. A global flood ca. 4350 years ago has not been found by archaeologists or sedimentologists.

It’s only ZERO proof if you ignore all the libraries full of information that doesn’t agree with your personal views...

Another bogus story designed to test our faith. The earth is only 9,000 years old.A quaint idea. But wrong. My conservative Catholic family of seven is taught the truth, Evolution happens.

The bones were all together because they all drown together in Gods flood, and then all settled in the cave together..as the water receeded ...easy.And yet another fairy tale.

Are you any kin to the Ed Zachary that they named that ugly disease after?

In chapter 1 God created the animals and mankind (not Adam). In chapter 2 He created Adam and the domestic animals (to till the ground). So adam wasn't the first man?
