    Old Earth Debate: Need Arguments and Resources

    Oochy - I'm curious... How do you reconcile the Garden of Eden story with an old Earth? Billions of years of lost human history? The Garden created long after the Earth was? A varying flow of time? Actually, it's not as hard as it seems. The garden was grown to be ready for when God created...

    Understanding Creationism: Definition and Relevance in Scientific Discourse

    This is an utter, total, and complete boldfaced LIE Ever heard of anti-biotic resistant bacteria? How about the strains of bacteria which can dissolve Nylon; a substance which has only been around for 50 years or so. Where do you think that new diseases come from? They mutate from...

    Questioning Saturn's Rings: Debunking the Myth of a Young Universe

    Wow, thanks all! I'm not one to diss my fellow Christian, but I need stuff to realign their "scientific" reasoning. And yes, although I have never seen it used, the moon's surface is a thing I have used before.

    Understanding Creationism: Definition and Relevance in Scientific Discourse

    ...he is completely unqualified to give an expert opinion on the likelihood of abiogenesis and evolution... Yes, he admits that. That is why he has a fellow on his team by the name of Fazale Rana, a Ph.D biochemist from the university of Ohio. Oochy's link is that of Dr. Hugh Ross whose...

    Understanding Creationism: Definition and Relevance in Scientific Discourse

    Depends if you want to study science or US religious right propaganda I think that was a little harsh, and uncalled for. It is contrary to the scientific belief that the Earth was created 4.6 billion years ago through natural events, and and it and the life on it has evolved since through...

    Old Earth Debate: Need Arguments and Resources

    Oochy, when Genesis says that there was no pain or suffering on Earth prior to the presence of the first humans, do you dismiss that as poetic license? To me, that is such an important principle of the Biblical description of who God is, that when you put it in the 'fable' category, you have...

    Starting algebra and I have a problem.

    Why do we loose the 2 though? When you subtract by x does it always make it negitive?

    Do Leading Scientists' Beliefs on God Influence Society's Views?

    If the majority is wrong, they'll be a legion of out of work scientist's in Hell and platoon of overworked scientist's in Heaven. Amen. ;) Sounds like I mayu have my work cut out for me. ;) This is pretty much what many of the founders of the US believed - the "clockmaker god" who makes...

    Starting algebra and I have a problem.

    Okay, maybe I just totally missed somthing somewhere, but I encountered a problem while learning "Combination of Terms Equations". Here is how they work the problem: 6x - 2x + 6 = x -2x -16 4x + 6 = -x + 16 -6 + -6 ------------------- 4x = -x + 10 +x = +x --------------- 5x = 10...

    Old Earth Debate: Need Arguments and Resources

    Okay, going to jump in here. Disclaimer: I am a Christian Basicly, I gave up young Earth creation years ago, after seeing vast amounts of evidance against it. I'm now a progressive creationist, which basicly means, instead of calling the brillant minds of the world liars, I look...

    Questioning Saturn's Rings: Debunking the Myth of a Young Universe

    Many people who believe the Earth is 6,000 years old, claim that Saturn's rings would fall onto the planet or lump together or somthing in less than 10,000 years, "proving" that the universe is less than 10,000 years old. I told on that, to the best my knowledge that Titan and Saturn had a...

    Can You Safely Build and Fly an Amateur Liquid Rocket Engine?

    [FONT=Comic Sans MS]I build small rockets, and my advice is not to try your own fuels and motors until you have worked with pre-fabricated ones. And try not to set anything on fire like I have. ;)
