RE:Evolution is Junk Science and Secular Religion

I would just like to make a small comment in Syndicate’s post with witch I otherwise agree in total. From my point of view there is no supporting evidence for creationistic believes. Every so-called evidence I am aware of is based on false interpretations of scientific research. In case someone is interested take a look at http://fp.bio.utk.edu/skeptic/.

RE: Evolution is Junk Science and Secular Religion

evolution is a crud of crap. though i do not have the booklet with me, it have alot of evidence that completely disproves evolution. i have one question for you: if evolution is true, then why do we only find dead evolved animals and not live creatures that have evolved in the past? they should not be dead, they should be alive. if it takes "billions of years" for something to evolve, and if, for some reason, they all died and there was only one of them, how can you expect them to evolve so purely? and to say that the earth is billions of years old, ha! that just cracks me up. you know they have found petrefiedtrees UPSIDE DOWN running through "millions of years" worth of rock? first of all, for something to be petrified is for it to be smothered almost imediately. you never see an entire tree that was petrified over years and years that has not completely rotted first. and then to show that the trees were also upside down. this completely shows that the great flood mentioned in the bible was absolutely true. and did you know that you can take a bottle filled with different densities of dirt, fill the bottle with water and let it evaporate completly, the dirt wil settle in layers, just like the earth. and you know how they just created real dimonds by preasurizing them? that shows that preasure can cause something to age rapidly. so, by thining about the past here, when the earth was created i'm pretty sure that the preasure from it was relatively high. so that means that it caused the rocks al oer the earth to age more quickly then they were supposed to. also, the closer you are to the center of the earth means you have more preasure on you, also showing that things closer to the center would seem to be more aged than the dirt farther from the center. all of this shows that the great flood was true and that carbon 14 dating is absolutely wrong. so, for something to evolve over "millions of years" is really a quite stupid idea, considering that the earth is not even that old...hm, now that sure does take a rocket scientist to figure that out.

I think CD27 is an incredibly strong argument against home schooling.

RE: Evolution is Junk Science and Secular Religion

Yes Tormod, we've had our share of ignorant Creationists come thru here. That wa what caught me here in the first place. Helping to teach them some reality. They all make their claims and either never show up again or soon find they did nlt actually have any FACTS behind them. And they sneak off into the night.

Do we play with this one for a while?

Oh NO! Not the BOOKLET!

Got a mirror handy?

they should not be dead,
No, they just stop thinking

If there is only one of them, unless they were hermaphrodites, further evolution might be a problem.

Glad you have a sense of humor. How about a sense of irony?

We have received light from galaxies billions of light years away. A "light year" is how far light travels in one year. If the source is a billion light years away, that light started to travel a billion years ago.

If every thing in existence was created 6,000 years or so ago, the light would not even have started to make the trip all the way to earth. We would not be able to see anything further away then 6,000 light years. We'd see perhaps 3-4 stars in the sky. Here are the nearest stars:

Common Name Distance (light years)

Proxima Centauri 4.2
Rigil Kentaurus 4.3
Alpha Cen B 4.3
Barnard's Star 6.0
Wolf 359 7.7

So we would not see Wolf, and Barnards would have flashed in a few years ago?

RE: Evolution is Junk Science and Secular Religion

ok, look, i notice that every single post i put up, you jsut absolutely have to send a rude comment back to me. it is getting quite aggrevating. is there any possible way that i can like press an ignore button to make it where you jsut can't post anything else to me? yea, light travels by years, but no one knows exactly where the center of the universe is. for all you know our galaxy could be the center, and if that's the case, then it doesn't matter how far away those stars are, because of the time dilation. those stars could really only be a couple thousand years olod, and because they are so far away, tehy would seem like billions of years old, so how does that make any difference? you know what, just don't even make a reply to this post. just leave me alone already.

RE: Evolution is Junk Science and Secular Religion

CD27, you are so arrogant I am amazed. I really recommend you find a different forum. You will not like it here unless you understand and accept this:

1) All your creationist ideas have been posted and discussed many, many times.

2) You need to accept that people respond to your posts. If you are offended, too bad. This is an open forum.

I don't know how long he will last, but he has at least been persistent with his double posting. Let's hope he gets his feet back on the ground or he'll tire out pretty soon.

And only 17...
