Too bad Einstein and his science has not been studied and built upon the way so many studying evolution have built upon Darwin. No, wait, I take that back considering how much evolutionary science is fraudulent and over-reaching. I would hate to see Einstein’s work mis-treated so.

You could have many of your questions answered if you would open your mind and read the many and varied creation scientists (with impressive credentials I might add). Einstein paved the way for explaining how the universe appears to be much older than it is. Gravitational Time Dilation simply shows greater and greater time stretching discrepancies when spanned over greater and greater distances.

I do believe there is a reason for the separate Biblical genealogies in the new testament too, showing how both Mary and Joseph had royal lineage. Other discrepancies may be explained as we get closer to His return but I’ll also point out that Revelation 22:18-19 warns against tampering with God’s Word. My thinking is simply that God would not need to provide this warning if mankind would never have tampered with any of His Holy Word.

Lastly, your science is not as airtight as you seem to think. Maybe you should re-examine all the times throughout history when science scoffed at the Bible and then later had to re-cant their high and mighty scientific conclusions. Assumptions are such an easy thing to overlook when most of the scientific community agrees with one another.

Whenever science disagrees with the plain and simple words of the Bible, I’ll take the Bible in every instance. My prayer is that many more ‘professing christians’ would take comfort and find wisdom and knowledge in doing the same.

And how do you interpret Proverbs 104:5? The plain and simple meaning of the words would be that Earth doesn’t move, and yet the data for Earth moving is overwhelming.

Could it be that the MEANING of Proverbs 104:5 is intact, even if the Earth does move. I certainly believe so, and think an understanding of the passage is thus IMPROVED by science showing the error of interpreting Prov 104:5 to mean that the Earth doesn’t move.

Prov 104:5 He set the earth on its foundations,
so that it should never be moved.

As a Christian I believe that the truth of science could never contradict the truth of scripture, although it can certainly make mince meat out of incorrect scriptural interpretation.

Name a high and mighty conclusion of science that has been overtaken by Biblical text.

You mean as smart as Dr. Walt Brown? Oooh, I'm scared.

I didn't even go through half of his paper and proved to you that he didn't have a clue as to what he was talking about. What an embarassment and what a bad witness for Christ.

People like Brown make it difficult for people in my position to witness to others. They read Young-Creationist nonsense, recognize it as pathetic pseudo-science or lies, and assume that the rest of Christianity is made up, too.
