In May 2009, a remarkably well-preserved extinct primate, nicknamed “Ida,” was hailed as one of the most important fossil finds ever. It had features that some interpreted as a link between two primate body forms. At the time, ICR News suggested that its evolutionary significance was far overblown, predicting that the scientific consensus would offer retractions. Those retractions came three months later, confirming that the fossil―called Darwinius―was really just an extinct lemur variety...

Why not? It is there to read and believe. Christians do not Disbelieve God.
OK—I agree with you on that one.
Nope. Evos are the ones to claim that.
Creationists, who adhere to the truth of the Bible, would not accuse God of deception.
That’s just another in a long list of lies that evos spread about creationists.
Theistic evolutionists have created their own private god in their minds. Their god was incapable of creation, and had to rely on evolution, thus he is as weak and fallible as they are; the perfect god.
>> For over one hundred years some creationist have claimed that God placed those fossils to confuse man kind. Yep, man kind is often confused. And yes I do love it. <<
God loves to keep his humans he created on earth confused. Why not just blame the Devil for tunneling underground and planting fossils to confuse and divide mankind, wouldn’t that explanation fit the the agenda better like the temperature adjustment in AGW data?
Why can’t god write in Hebrew the 10 commandments in the Cosmic Background Radiation and be done with it. If we see that in the CMB I would be more willing to believe what the YOUNG earth creationists believe. The CMB being somewhat the “Fingerprint of creation” itself.
In the meantime I am going to follow my Catholic upbringing and remain an Old Earth creationist. But I am sure if I study the bible literally enough I am sure in the pages somewhere there are the equations for Mass Energy Equivalency, Newton’s equations, Ohm’s Law, and other various Universal constants and equations..... Still looking....
I am no Catholic, I do not believe in the Divinity of any single man but 1, Jesus Christ. Hence the Pope is a sham, IMHO.
I do ot believe in praying to any but Jesus Christ, not even His mother.
So, you may interpret as you will.
How can an outsider cause strife between Christians? Only Christians can cause strife between them. Outsiders can only bring out the facts of the strife.
Like how the YECers say that once they and their OEC allies beat down the evolutionists, the YECers will go after the OECers until everyone on earth believes in the one true word of God that the YECers believe.
I notice that you Creationists are whacking at strawmen most of the time. The solid science done between 1900 and 1940 that confirmed evolution you leave alone. Also, I don't see you touching successful theories such as the "Triangle of U" or other recent confirmations that have resulted from genome comparisons.
Nonsense! - You’ve just never studied God’s word.
Catholicism is the oldest Christian denomination on earth. Are you claiming to be more Christian than a Catholic?
You know it’s ludicrous to call this “defense of religious freedom”....right?
OYG!!! Different people have the gall to interpret a fossil differently......and that’s an “attack on religious freedom”!!!!!
....must be a slow day at the ICR.
They are mutually exclusive.
The arrogant is obvious.
Would that word include denying family members penicillin for infection?
Nope—they coexist perfectly. Just like evolution and Christianity.
Little boy? You're a getting to be a real nut case!
Oh. Where did God write anything?
The only problem in your little scenario is that it is you evo’s who are ‘going after’ anybody. Why so threatened?
Let us here, who believe that what the Bible says is true, have our discussion.
But no. Evos feel obligated to erase that which they do not agree with.
You people are equivalent to the AGW crowd trying to silence the deniers. And at the same time, (for most it seems) wrapping yourself in the cloak of being’Christian’ as you try to discredit Gods Creation.
“You’re a getting to be a real nut case!”
Now THAT caused me to spew my coffee! Talk about projection!
“So a single incorrect claim in paleontology that takes three months to correct is somehow equivalent to the AGW fraud?”
Actually more like dozens of frauds over the past 150 years (some of which still appearing in textbooks today YEARS after they’ve been debunked as frauds) that render evolution on par with climate “science.” The main difference is that evolution is a lie that’s been told much longer with a lot more funding behind it. Other than that, they are two sides of the same fraudulent coin.
