Yehren observes: If we find a natural object, like a bird or a shell, we see that it is not designed, but rather was fashioned by nature. Why not? Experience. We know arrowheads are designed, and there is an entire science based on learning about primitive stone tools and how they were designed and ...

Unless an organism uses geological carbon (e.g. mollusks) the amount of C-14 is at an equillibrium. When it dies, the C-14 remains, and then decays slowly, which provides the clock needed to date relatively recent things. It is of almost no use to paleontologists, since it cannot be used to day most...

Science is methodologically naturalistic, which means that it looks for natural causes for natural phenomena, without denying that supernatural causes might exist. That's how it works. It can't handle magic or miracles: the system collapses if you try. This is not to say that you can't teach about d...

CArbon is beinbg lost by the biological process of changing 14C to 14N, so there is less carbon than at creation. As I understand it carbon-14 is cahnged to nitrogen-14 by a 40 day process. This is true. However, new C-14 is being continuously produced in the high atmosphere. Properly speaking, it ...

Yehren asks: Can you think of even one verse that denies evolution? Gen 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: How are we in the image of God? Not in physical appearance. God has no need of eyes or fingers or legs. We are, as He mentions in Genesis, like Him in being mo...

Yehren observes: I'm a bit puzzled. I mention that there is nothing in Scripture that contradicts evolution, and you ask me where. Nowhere. There is nothing there that contradicts it. You might as well ask me to show you where in Scripture it doesn't contradict atoms. I haven't asked you to show me ...

Nope. Just one more bit of evidence for God's creation. His way. Not ours. The important thing to remember is that the linked article has a lot of just plain wrong assertions. Be careful. BTW, would you like to take a shot at telling me which of those hands are the hands of birds, and which are the ...

I need to see some amazingly good evidence to prove that 'the Pope is a good authority on Christian belief'. Yehren observes: Most of the world's Christians acknowledge him as their spiritual leader. And? Christians are, after all, the final authority on what Christians believe. Yehren observes: It...

Yehren, I've just spent a lot of time reading through this thread. I would like you to clarify in summary exactly how you believe evolution is compatible with the Genesis account of creation, and the creation co-texts. Because nothing in Genesis denies evolution, it's the only conclusion that is po...
