I believe in the QEC (Quick Earth Creationism).
God is all-mighty, more than anyone can even imagine.
He created everything, including our memories, just seconds ago, although most people wrongly believe the earth is older than that.
I'm not exactly sure what you're asking. Can you rephrase?
Atheism is like fish that disbelieve in water.

Cute, but an entirely inapt comparison.
Not sure if this is what you were asking, but consider pebble or boulder shape. Obviously, it would take a long period of erosion to ‘round’ a rock. Most rocks when they first are dislodged from their source rock/outcrop are jagged and angular.
...rocks are usually rounded by water (in riverbeds, or on coastlines), but can also be rounded by wind or transportation by glacier.
We do know “exactly how they work”? That’s news to me, and most likely to everyone with half a brain or more.
The article posits that cataclysmic events within a few thousand years can account for the amount of erosion we see today. They're basing they data on observed events and attributing all of the effect to that cataclysmic event. I'd submit that the effect is the cumulative result of that event, plus all of the slow erosion and thermal cycles that preceded it, and their premise is flawed.
Thanks. Glad to know there’s a “real” name for the concept.
Dr. Russell Humphreys likes to use the jargon of time dilation to give viewers and listeners the impression he knows what he is talking about, and then he misuses that jargon in ways which demonstrate he fails to understand that jargon in the most fundamental ways. According to his claims about time dilation the passage of time on the Earth was necessarily much slower than at the most distantly viewed galaxies in order for the Creation of Earth to have only been some few thousands of years ago. Unfortunately for his attempt to take a conclusion and interpret the physical facts to reach that foregone conclusion, the distant galaxies would have to appear to us as very aged galaxies some tens of billions of years old for his Conjecture to work, whereas we are observing and viewing the exact opposite, with the most distant galaxies being very much slower in time due to their very high velocities, making those galaxies aged only millions of years instead of the billions of years that have passed in this region of the Universe. In other words, despite his alleged scientific credentials, he is speaking scientific nonsense falsified by observations of the realities.
Describe the “physics break” necessary to establish a young age for the Earth. What laws or physical constants must change for this break?
I don’t think you have a clue what you are talking about...
Woah there, pal! Now you are talking about study and scholarship; stuff that takes time, effort and understanding. Don't you know that everything worth knowing comes from a plain reading of the text of the Bible (in English, just like Jesus wrote it!).
/sarcasm (if needed)
Yes, we do know how single cell creatures work and with all of that knowledge science cannot reproduce one in the lab. Nor will man ever be able to do that. Yet you want me to believe that pool of “primordial” soup in a small pond was struck by Lightning and amoeba started darting around magically.
No, we don’t.
Isn't this true?
Nope, that isn’t true either. I never said anything about lighting, or primordial soup or amoebae. You can check every single word of my prior posts and you’ll see I never said any of that. You did.
ICR is not a credible source
“Yes, we do know how single cell creatures work and with all of that knowledge science cannot reproduce one in the lab.”
That statement is false, because scientists have created a new form of Life by taking non-living chemicals to create a new and never been seen before genome which was placed inside an already living bacterium to reproduce a new form of life.
“Nor will man ever be able to do that.”
There are no principles of biochemistry, chemistry, or physics which would prevent Humans from eventually developing being a means to produce a reproductive organic chemical organism qualifying as a form of life.
“Yet you want me to believe that pool of âprimordialâ soup in a small pond was struck by Lightning and amoeba started darting around magically.”
That is not how Life originated on the Earth or in interstellar space. Life is an inherent electromagnetic property of molecules and their tendency to aggregate under certain environmental conditions.
Ok at some point the earth went form no life to having life on it. The primordial soup creating spontaneous life thing is the last version I heard from the evolution gang. Whats your version? I am all ears.
Wow that is crock of excrement.
Walk me thru that process. So one billion years ago on a Thursday evening some electromagnetic ray beamed down hit a rock and lichens appeared? LOL.
