Re: A few questions

How long is the 7th day? 24 hours? Am I missing something, why are we still in the 7th day of God's creation? A couple things. - Why do you feel God would need to "dumb it down" for ancient man? From what I've read, ancient man might not have been as technologically sophisticated but he s...

Re: A few questions

You should research the main site a bit more... there are some articles about this. Basically what is usually translated as "day" can actually mean "age" or well... Let's say a very long period of time. Yeah some interpret it that way. In fact I've been an OEC for quite some tim...

Re: God Particle? Any ideas?

So all praise the holy mathematical equation that has given us life? As John Lennox mentioned in response to the Hawking controversy last year, you have to account for laws too Hawking: Because there is a law of gravity, the universe can and will create itself out of nothing. The Grand Design cited...

If you're looking for healthy discussion surrounding these issues rather than the antagonistic kind, you might be interested in William Lane Craig's recent debate with Peter Millican here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4lKWiV8pkE I haven't watched the whole thing myself, but I've heard that it is...

Re: A few questions

That typically boils down to a "creation story/religious view vs. big bang theory/science" problem. How is Biblical creation (or any creation theory for that matter) against the Big Bang theory? And how can anything be against science? Science is simply a method. The way I see it, based o...

Re: Alien Life

Well no there most likely isn't IMO, because that would mean Jesus would have to be sacrificed again would it not? So as far as self-aware beings go, no. Could there be "animal planets" consisting solely of varieties of animal and microbial organisms. Sure. If there really are other self-a...

There's a related topic on geological dating here: http://crev.info/content/111117-discovery_upsets_geological_dating "Discovery Upsets Geological Dating" has nothing to do with a young earth. The article referenced [Metamorphic replacement of mineral inclusions in detrital zircon from Ja...

Way I see it, it's certainly not evidence against a global flood :D

Re: A few questions

Hi, I recently discovered the "New Atheists" and all the debate going on about this. All in all that brought my belief in God into pretty rough waters - gathering "neutral" information on the topic seems pretty difficult, so I have a few questions for you. Both sides (argumentin...

Re: Kent Hovind - Powerful evidence for a young earth

Stu, do a search for Kent Hovind, here on this forum. And you'll see how many of us have heard him speak. Mr. Hovind, doesn't represent YEC. If you want to see him in action, search youtube for" Hugh Ross Kent Hovind debate". You'll see hours of Hovindspeak. Thanks. Yeah I've referenced t...

Kent Hovind - Powerful evidence for a young earth

Anyone heard this guy speak before. Always considered myself an Old Earth Creationist but this has certainly got me thinking. I'm not sold on the concept just yet, but it has raised some compelling questions. Just watched Part 1 (Age of the Earth) of a series of six videos, and will be moving on to ...

Re: Does this website disprove God? (need experts! long read

I wouldn't place too much worth in that site -- the first paragraph sets up a convenient strawman argument right off the bat :shakehead: with his little coin thought experiment. (1) Next he addresses Galileo and Empirical Science . What the author, Mark Thomas, fails to realise is that Galileo was a...

Re: The Edge of Evolution (book) - disproved?

Thanks guys :D I decided to start with Behe's Darwin's Black Box and The Myth of Junk DNA by Jonathan Wells. Yeah, I've only recently come to realise (and experience) that for some evolutionists the "Church of Darwin" really is the equivalent of their own religion; and they will defend it ...
