Re: Young Earth Old Universe

Let us start with time. There are two ways to measure time. One is to observe the planets go around the sun and then divide these events with a pendulum clock synchronized to the movement (orbital time). We have defined one earth cycle around the sun as one year (365 days plus a little extra). We ha...

Re: Dinosaurs

In the book of Job two large animals are described, one on land and one in the sea. The best fit description for the land based animal is the Brontosaurus or something real close. In the model of earths history that I follow the ice age would have been occuring during Job's time. This means that the...

Re: Who Created God?

We are trained all of our life to see cause and effect. B happened because A did something to cause it. From a strict materalistic sense all effects can be followed back to the creation of the universe. Take for instance a book or pile of rocks, they exist because something outside of the pile of ro...

Re: Young Earth Old Universe

Himantolophus, I did not mention a flood in the creation of the river delta. I will post soon a detailed history of the earths geology with the major catastrophic events in earths past. The ice age occured postflood. Isa 42:5 Thus saith God the LORD, He that created the heavens, and stretched them o...

Re: Young Earth Old Universe

Another method of dating comes from the byproducts of radioactive decay. It seems that uranium (U-238) stuck in granite produces eight atoms of helium as it decays into lead. The helium atoms are small and don't react with the neighboring crystal structure in the granite so when they are made from t...

Re: Young Earth Old Universe

The model I have presented to show an ancient universe and a young earth is to show how the data of science can be used to support what we see around us. The accerated time at the edge of the universe does not change the six day creation. Time is just a thing and the time at the edge of the universe...

Re: Young Earth Old Universe

In support of the young earth model you can look at geology to see enough evidence to start to question the old earth view. If you look up the erosion in the midwest into the Mississippi river you can determine the amount of dirt that flows to the sea each year. You can go to the USGS website or you...

Re: DNA against Evolution

Himantolophus, Yes I am a creationist. I believe that God created the earth and the heavens. I believe He created all of the animals and fishes. I believe He created man in His own image. God gave us a spirit and soul. So from this starting point I look at the world and wonder about all He has done ...

Young Earth Old Universe

One of the biggest stumbling blocks for many Christians is the conflict of time between science and the Bible. I know this was true for me and it caused many hours of discomfort trying to reconcile the two subjects I hold dear. I have spent the last three years diving into this subject and am happy ...

Re: Local Flood vs Global Flood

Hi all, The reasons for the flood and all other judgements in the Bible come from the creation. When God created free will He also allowed the possibility that His creation would take a wrong turn. When Eve and Adam took of the forbidden fruit they brought on death to the creation. Natural evil was ...

Re: DNA against Evolution

About the fish population. If you take a species and subdivide it again and again you end up with less room for the species and the population shrinks. Since random mutation requires large populations to work and vast time you get diminishing returns. Now there are people who declare that evolution ...

Re: Local Flood vs Global Flood

Gman, On the translation of the Bible into english. I have to agree that there are many problems with the KJV and others. I love to read the KJV but double check with the septuagent when I have a doubt or doing study. I also keep e-sword on my desk top so I can reference the original Hebrew or greek...

Re: DNA against Evolution

BGoodForGoodSake, You are right I did not address this issue about the fish separated by land. Using my time line the fish were separated around 2900 BC when the single continent split apart. But lets just accept that the fish are different enough to be called different species. Now, what is the adv...

Re: DNA against Evolution

The YEC comes in all forms. I have to agree that most YEC have not considered all of the available data and come up with theories that I see through quickly. God bless them for their effort but they should stick to other subjects. Hard evidence of man goes back to around 3200 BC. This does not use a...

Re: DNA against Evolution

Forum Monk, If you go to the reference section of Behe's book you will find the peer reviewed articles you are looking for. As for the comment about being accepted. In history we find many people who were rejected and killed for their words. Some of the prophets were killed because the King or the p...
