Do people like yourself ever consider that your dating techniques might not be sound. Meaning that rates of change might have been different back then from now?

just wondering.

Indeed we do. If the rates of change were different, we could "see" the evidence for such changes.

They wouldn't admit it anyway. Most have their minds made up and nothing will change them. And they say Christians are hard-headed.

Do people like yourself ever consider that the Bible is written by man and pieces were put in and removed at the hand of man and that the original manuscripts are not available and that you rely on mere mortals to tell you of God?

No. But if they aren't, religious people can't then use them to validate religious artifacts (Shroud of Turin or that phony 'James - brother of Jesus' box found last year).


" Meaning that rates of change might have been different back then from now? "


So 6 days may have actually been 4.5 billion years? Yeah - I can believe that.
