The article cited was interesting. However, I don't think it adequately answered the Exodus 20:11 argument (it somehow claimed that Exodus 20:11 wasn't referencing the 7 days in Geneis - "for in 6 days the LORD made heaven and earth" -- what else would that possibly be referencing? ..Was t...

For example, when yom is used to represent a literal day, there is ALWAYS a numerical reference by it (try to find an exception?). Are you serious? You think every use of yom as a literal day has a numerical reference by it? This is why I am chuckling and badgering you a little on this. Just so you...

The chuckling is ok. That's what people often do in light of their own misunderstandings. ;-) Let me respectfully correct you... Once again, these are not MY arguments. I obtained "my arguments" (as you call them) from AnswersInGenesis.Org, as I already mentioned. I was interested to hear ...

"Days" have not been stretched, but rather the literal meaning of yom being an unspecified period is used. As for "day and night", do you mean the "evening and morning" phrase? Many responses to questions have been posted in the thread at http://discussions.godandscien...

There's a reason why we must consume food in order to survive. The process of metabolism allows our systems to maintain order at the expence of the material we consume. Heres the summary below. Food + Cell has less entropy than Cell + Waste As you can see the maintenence of life is not a violation ...

Re: Arguments AGAINST day age theory...

How do the day-agers answer these problems (aka FACTS) that contrast the day-age theory?... The Hebrew word for day (yom) can have several different meanings. The meaning is always clear when read in context. The first reference to "day" in the creation account is in the context of a 24 h...

Why do people automatically assume that man's law (science) has to always agree with God's law? If God wants a flood he can create a flood. If he wants to fit the entire animal kingdom in a single ark he can do it, just as readily as he can feed thousands of people with enough food for a few. By th...

Re: The second law of Thermodynamics

Please...make sense. Ranting isn't easy to understand I imagine a lot of ranting on these fora is a result of frustration caused by disagreements on basic issues. So by what avenue of logic can you come to the conclusion that natural selection can do that which no other force in the universe CAN do...

I explained the problems (as I see them) above. So by the chart the day/age theory represents that the days have now stretched to BILLIONS of years?? Hard to believe! If that's the case, why then would the bible refer VERY clearly to "night and day" (light and dark) as it follows the creat...

Major questions about old earth / "long days" theo

First time poster here.. I was reading over the web-site owner's theory of the 6 days of creation... Basically that the days were not actual 24 hour periods, but rather "longer" periods of time. And yet, the author still agrees that plant, animal, and man were CREATED by God - just that th...
