The Day-age position.

It is testable and falsifiable.
nah..

It is verifiable. I just verified it.

the evening and morning.. There are no ages associated with these words. they literall only mean on thing.. The night at sunset, or the morning, at daybreak..

you have to deny these words in the text to get the "long age" interpretation out of day,, Which although can be translated as an age, can only be interpreted that way if evening and morning are left out.

Re: Study up...

The Hebrew day is from evening to evening.

Thus...your 'evening to morning' would make for 12hrs not 24hrs!

Is this what you want...?
dude, I gave you the hebrew meanings.

Are you going to deny what it says?? or not??

Then you must live with a day being 12hrs.

You missed the point.

As the world becomes better educated through technology, the less tolerance they will have for the YEC position.

The OEC position will flourish...
yet the opposite is happening. As is evolution. because people are realising the things they are based on are just not true.

Stop reading only people who believe as you do. and read the many many new and ongoing scientists who deny old earth and evolution.

You are living in the past!

Darwinian evolution is going extinct with the advent of the discoveries made every day...
So is OEC, They go hand in hand

No.

God said the evening and the morning are the first day. And I showed you the hebrew meanings.

are you going to sit here and argue what God said? Keep it up. You will lose any credability and argumental standing you may have..

I am not denying the word. You are.

Day-age OEC rejects evolution.

I don't agree with you at all that the Day-Age theory is testable and falsifiable but thanks for sharing your specific belief.

I am not denying the word. You are.

Even Jesus stated that a day was 12hrs.

Therefore, you deny Jesus, according to YOUR reasoning.

Yes they do..

where do you think OEC came from..

you do not even know your own history.


The catachlism of the flood destroys OEC and evolution. as we find out what truely happened in that event.. As you was shown earlier.

I'm familiar with the main beliefs, I just didn't know which one you specifically ascribed to.

John 11.9

Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walks in the day, he does not stumble because he sees the light of the world.

Yes....God DID say this!

it appears he is of the belief that the six days of creation were not literal days. but long ages..

which would be different than the gap theory..
