For those who don't understand.
It was understood that conserved code implied that the section of DNA was critical, thus the lack of changes through evolutionary time.
That was then (June 2004). What is now regarding what appears to involve 'Junk" DNA research?

Thanks, Sandy. I am totally ignorant on these fields and a neophyte when it comes to consume information about them. My current interest derive from reading the usual YEC vs OEC battles accross Christian Boards on the internet. It looks inescapable a confrontation for obvious reasons. I superficiall...

The Age of the Earth II - Any Update?

The chart at this page http://www.godandscience.org/youngearth ... verse.html triggered my curiosity.
Is there any recent development in Earth Sciences challenging the geologic time?
Thanks in advance.

Difficult to chose, but I love this one:
Jer 8:9 The wise are ashamed, they are terrified, and are captured. Lo, they have turned away from the Word of Jehovah; and what wisdom is in them?

I can't see in the Flood account anything other than a global catastrophe. If the Flood was local: 1- How local it was, in other words, where is the scientific evidence setting its specific geographic limits? 2- In connection with the above, a local scenario would require a basin-like location demar...

Hi, Oriental I understand your problem. I went through something similar and it is not enjoyable. My advice would be: do not get complacent with the situation. There is a reason why you are there and it will become obvious shortly. In the meantime, try to understand them and earn their trust. They'r...

Hi C2 That's a difficult one. The expression 'It is enough' can mean either that the two swords are enough for defense or that the conversation is over because the disciples missed the prophetic point of His warning. It is interesting that He quotes Isa 53:12 - an obvious Messianic passage - as to b...

Hi, AF You had a very interesting opening post. I pray God blesses you all the way during your Christian walk and uses you for His Glory. I don't find the passage of Jesus' baptism other than literal. It was God's first open and public appointment of Jesus into His Ministry. I think He had perfect k...

Hi IU2BAC, If you ever come back to this thread please let us know your personal reasons for not believing. Other people's testimonies forcing you into or away from a Christian belief are inconsequential. What do you think? What have you personally found to support your position -or rather your lack...

Hi, Smarsquid. Hosting doubts is part of our walk of faith, therefore, what we do about them is what really counts. You don't mention what exactly is keeping you away from certainty but God is bigger than our problems. I have found that my faith has grown in times of personal tribulation; perhaps be...

Hi Madscientist, I think you're making an honest questionning about things which appear disturbing at first. I don't know whether or not you're a Christian. If you are then pray that God gives you knowledge and discernment on those issues and continue studying His Word. May my arguments here bear so...

Historicist. Matthew 24 and Revelation leave no doubt in my mind that Jesus meant His prophecy to start its fulfilment immediately after His Ascension and Enthronization. The Destruction of the Temple in 70 AD and the ulterior development of His Church until our times give Revelation a partial fulfi...

Re: Struggling with my commitment/willingness

Hello all, Sorry for so many questions. Like I said I'm just overwhelmed by how suddenly this is all happening, especially the leadership thing, and need to get some stuff off my chest. Just looking for some help. Hi Vash, I would rather be amazed if you did not feel that way with so much to cope w...
