The Big Bang, Relativity, and Creation

Post by SoCalExile »

A rather interesting look at the "six-days" of Creation, explained to us knuckle-dragging types:

SoCal, simply the best post of the year, category: God and Science. Amazingly, the works of the Lord have been "timed" scientifically to what seems perfection.

Thanks so much. :clap: bible :shakehand: science ... just a great read !

All this time, YEC and OEC were both right.

Very honestly, this topic never interested me... all I know is we're here and it makes sense we are. Old earth, young earth ... middle aged earth !!! gotta tell you, this post :pound: ... seriously, doesn't it make perfect sense both are good to go ! Still and forever more will work in mysterious ways... :amen:

What this also does is answer the question of the 2nd generation wives. If hominds (nefesh) existed along with humans (neshama), then Cain, Abel, Seth, etc. didn't resort to incest. It also lends Biblical support for the scientific claim of neanderthal DNA in modern humans. Although, we don't know if Adam and Eve were the first Homo Sapiens or just the first Homo adorans (neshama).

This is very interesting.It is kind of hard for me to navigate through it,if I hit the wrong button? It goes all the way to the end.I need more time to ingest this and consider this but it is a fresh approach I've not seen before.I'm glad you posted this.
Hebrews 12:2-3 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith;who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross,despising the shame,and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Awesome!!
Thanks so much for sharing!
I have been thinking about time and relativity a lot lately in regards to God and creation and this was just bloody brilliant as it touched on some of my thoughts and explained it in a way my brain could comprehend.
My mind has been having spasms over time, relativity, Gravity, and how it is experienced here on earth compared to any point in the universe and how it pertains to God and creation. I hadn't factored in the YEC/OEC debate though.
I also really enjoyed her testimony!
I agree with ES,
God and Science post of the year!

Fascinating - but the only problem I have with it is that man appears 250 millions years ago according to his chart - and modern man did not appear until about 100,000-200,000 years ago.

You know, if someone were to find human remains in the Permian, the "problem' is, we'd have to abandon the theory of evolution.

It's not like not finding them there proves the theory of evolution -- however you define it -- which I don't believe you ever have. y:-/

Good flipping grief, K, what are you on about? I nor anyone proposes to "PROVE" a theory. Why should I write a definition of ToE? You can look it up faster than I can write.

I pointed out that a gross inconsistency like humans living 250,000,000 years ago would disprove a theory that says they could ONLY have evolved about 250,000,000 years later.

I thought maybe someone would notice that such a gross error might similarly affect the creation myth under discusison.

But again you make it about me. Sheesh.
