Real data. Real decline of lifespans. Real exponential decay. How can this data be falsified?

I asked a Jesuit priest if Jesus was bodily resurrected from the dead.

He said that the disciples experienced a joyful rebound of emotions after Jesus’ death, and that was the driving force that propelled their preaching.

Beware the Jesuits.

>> “The Bible’s record shows no trace of anybody getting eaten by a Tyrannosaurus” <<

.
Or of anybody getting eaten by any other animal either.

The evidence got eaten.

The evidence of “dragons” as they were actually called is thick and wide in recorded history.

Alexander the Great curtailed his conquests because of them several times.

Creation was 6013 years ago, and the Bible is the most reliable historical text in existence.

First, please let me know how you connect climate change, radiation and abortion to evolutionary biology or more specifically, flower fossils.

This thread is posted in the Religion Forum. The guideline here is "discuss the issues all you want, but do not make it personal."

No ad hominems.

That was my poor attempt at sarcasm...

My view of evolution is that in every way it is a religion as much as any other with its narrative of “in the beginning”, etc.

Finally, the Bible's timeline shows a creation that is thousands, not billions, of years old, erasing any need to explain why pollen grains buried deep in fossil layers look so similar to living herbs and flowers today.

And some people wonder why religion is sadly losing influence.

The flaws in his theory that Darwin thought time would correct have only become more problematic. For instance, those elusive transitional fossil between the major species which he thought would be found, haven’t been. How many fossils are in existence? 200 million? More? Name one that provides proof of macroevolution. How about irreducible complexity to name another problem Darwin had with his own theory?

You say man is an ape. Do we have 24 pairs of chromosomes? And why, at the very least, do we have 100+ million more bits of info separating us from our supposed closest ancestor? Do you think we need more than one link to bridge that gap? Where this “beautiful lineage” you speak of?

Please tell me what you believe the creature is that is man’s closest relative in Darwinian evolution and I’ll go do more thorough research on it. Spare the condescension and lay the science on me.

what do you expect from a jesuit school?

They are not believers by any reasonable measure.

Nor are they well educated in Yehova’s word; they exist to deny it.

Yes “religion” is losing influence, but the truth of Yehova’s word is gaining influence rapidly among those of his election.

Religion has always been man’s effort to eradicate Yehova’s inerrant word.

I appreciate your inquiry, but as the OP did the honest thing and posted this religious article in the religion forum, any dissent from a young earth creation model gets deleted, as you can see above with all the comments removed by the Religion moderator.

Good day to you all.

Evolution vs. creationism aside...I've always seen that name spelled "Jehovah" rather than "Yehova". Just out of curiosity, why do you spell it in that manner?
