I understand, you find it necessary to ignore common sense and truth, always searching for some disputer of the Lord? Your answers must often be more internet links passing on the lies of atheists, the deceived, the demoralized, and the confused?

I am compelled to cherish the word of God all the more.
I've showed them just the opposite, but they were " supposed hacks " ... One from BYU, what changes ? Spinning wheels, just spinning wheels...

HEY, ya found me huntin place? Ya might not be far from my bluegill spot.....

Yep, those prints are set in stone. It doesn't take long at all to seal those marks, all the while rain and now lake waves eroding them. You and I know such signs tell us the animals still follow the same paths, have the same habits, finding the same prints in fresh mud.
I noticed that crack in the box and Dr. Spock Hurd didn't address the fact that there are deer and cat prints in granite/rock I wonder if they were being chased by a T. Rex some 65.9876453627236 million years ago??????

A quick note. You won't find foot prints of any kind in granite unless someone carved them. You have to change the rock type.

No wonder we sometimes learn of a church choir director running off with a pastor's wife.
Your obsessive-compulsive posting of today is an incredible look into inner workings of a totally indoctrinated mind.

So what do you think of Ultra Conserved Elements?

And please don't tell me not to go off topic like you do,

The word "dinosaurs" is in the article.

First, granite is a slow cooling macrocrystalline igneous rock. It forms in deep plutons. There are no "tracks" of any sort in granite.

Second, I doubt you know what tracks you are looking at. (I do. That was a 25 years younger me on the right. We were tagging, and putting a radio collar on an 18 month old mountain lion.)

Third, what tests did you conduct to determine the age of the "rock" you think you saw?

Fourth, show us the documented "tracks" and the geological segment and mapping.

Fifth, when will you stop posting these frauds? You have made people who might have believed you look stupid.

This was the cub's momma:

We had collared her 2 years earlier, and her radio collar needed a new battery. She was really angry. We tranquilized her with a 22 cal load firing a huge injection dart.

That is why I put a / and the word rock after.....because it was set in rock/stone and there was about 25 meters of the tracks like the cat was stalking the deer.....it was an unusually dry period of drought and was usually under like 10 foot of water.....was rather surprised to find it....

First of all I do know what deer tracks and cat prints look like as I have trapped and or bow hunted deer for the last 30 years in a multitude of states all over this country.

Second I know what I was looking at, and there was about 25 meters of tracks WELL FORMED IN ROCK in an are that IS NORMALLY COVERED WITH WATER.

THIRD, you would mouth as what I have seen contradicts your false gospel

Fourth, come to my house in Missouri and call me a liar to my face!

Fifth...I would be more than willing to MEET YOU FACE TO FACE in MOUNTAIN HOME ARKANSAS and show you the tracks personally as it is only a three hour drive for ME......!

This discussion helps me to understand how Columbus felt....All the scholars were certain that the earth was flat...they even taught that in schools...seems like the brightest men of that time were not so bright after all

reasonable explanation
Sid Roth and Bruce Malone are Tweedledumb and Tweedledeedumber.

If any of Bruce Malone's claims were legitimate, his claims would be published in reputable scientific journals.

Anybody who could prove Malone's claims would make money hand over fist.

You understand why, right?

Of course, Dr. Dino (Kent Hovind) made money hand over fist selling mindless drivel. Unfortunately for Dr. Dino, the rock billions of years old he hid the money under did not fool the IRS. You see, the IRS investigators did not believe his 6,000-year-old rock story.

Bruce Malone was a DOW Chemical chemist. His patents are all essentially the product of DOW Chemical teams, and even an administrator gets to "ride" on the patent. I have a friend who worked at Intel who had 15 patents in name. He was a primarily contributor to only a few.

Malone's patent history is further inflated by a common industry practice of stringing out applications. For example, Malone is listed on "US5527573 A" for the production of a closed cell polypropoylene foam. The application filed in 1996 was used to supersede applications filed in 1991, and 1992. The reason this is done is to delay the actual implementation of the Patent which has a fixed duration. By repeatedly filing continuations, the DOW company (or others) can claim a priority from 1991, but not worry about actually defending the patent. (And Malone's biographical notes get fluffed).

First big lie- 3:09-3:19 "in order to make a fossil you need to have something die, and be buried very deeply and very rapidly and then lots of water flush through the rock layers as the sediment is turned into rock."

There are several common fossilization mechanisms, none involve a rapid deep burial. If the sediment is carried by water, then there must be a very high velocity to carry large amounts of material. This creates what we call a "debris flow" and will more likely destroy any organic material than bury it intact. Below are short videos of a debris flow:

In fact, use the search function on YouTube for dozens of examples.

Isaiah circa 700's B.C. writes of the circle of the earth.....
Yes, a "circle" or "disk." There is a biblical Hebrew word for "sphere" or "ball." But that word was not used. Like other Mesopotamian cultures the early Hebrews believed in a disk shaped "mortal plain" with a limitless sea below.

I agree as the word carries the idea of a circle, circuit and or compass.......!

I read it on-line: Sacred Theory of the Earth

I suspect that the Reverend Thomas Burnett after 300 years of study from the time of his death, until now would have managed to keep pace with geology. I find it odd that you are apparently stuck in a time warp.

John Calvin could almost have you in mind when he wrote,

Genesis, Vol. I, Part 3 (1554).
http://www.ccel.org/ccel/calvin/calcom01.txt[/QUOTE]

You missed his point and my point that the greatest mind on earth, the renowned scientist Isaac Newton, agreed with Burnett on Burnett's geology. Newton also held fast to the notion of Adam and Eve being of special creation, apart from animals. Newton was a Christian, and in many ways can be identified as the first "creation scientist". That man Newton, far above your intellect, suspected longer days at creation, though now science proves that detail to be wrong by tiny increments of time as the earth's rotation slows according to laws of physics, the days growing longer. The quote you used was a mutually agreed principle that warns YOU guys, not Christians, to employ the Bible towards truth, not atheistic science beliefs. They understood. Your bunch is blinded by Satan, so we understand that a big part of your mental potential is blocked by spiritual depravity, leaving you in a whirlpool of doubt and soul-killing unbelief.

John Calvin was a heretic, not followed by the great majority of Christians then, or now. It is so interesting that atheists, skeptics, scoffers, and the like are drawn to the heretics, and consistently fail to recognize error concerning the word of God. Of course that set the stage for taking the lying side of science, lying about empirical evidences. That caused many Christians who were and are Christians who have no logical reason to reject Genesis, to come out opposing atheistic evolutionists.

Note that the latest issue of Acts & Facts from ICR.org (Fountains of the Deep) by Dr. Clarey, Ph.D. geology, exposes yet another failure of secularists concerning evidences of a world-wide flood. It is supported by real geology that revels how confounded secular geologists remain. A greater list of similar articles is at Home | The Institute for Creation Research and a favorite of mine Home | The Institute for Creation Research
I realize you will castigate any professional that threatens your imaginary world. You complained a while back that certain experts we cite have little or no papers online. That is true for you, using every public web crawler, showing but Twitter comments and the like. You let out a few direct links of your own stuff, but fail to self identify by linking to a university confirmed source by which we can confirm your own actual qualifications, and of course identity. Are you really "Dr. Hurd as claimed here?", or an imposter? People that accuse are usually in need of being accused. I am watching for a consistently intellignet professor that is not so easily caught in his own webs.

The really important research is, as you ought to know, propitiatory and is for sale on a "pay per view" status. The scientists want to be paid for access. That is reasonable. So why condemn others whose contributions are "not peer reviewed" when your judgment is based on failure of Google to give it free? I have refrained from casting excess negative opinion of you because I know why it is hard to find published papers unless the authors release them as public domain.

The next major lie is that there are "enormous gaps- you find single celled animals and then starfish with nothing in between." (4:00 - 4:10).

The oldest exposed rock with a physical fossil was in Australia. It is a bacterial cell from a flint bed dated to 3.5 billion years ago. See:
Schopf, J. William
1999 "Cradle of Life: The Discovery of Earth's Earliest Fossils," Princeton University Press

For a detailed study of the geology and dating, see:

UENO, YUICHIRO, HIDEYOSHI YOSHIOKA, SHIGENORI MARUYAMA, and YUKIO ISOZAKI
2004 "Carbon isotopes and petrography of kerogens in ~3.5-Ga hydrothermal silica dikes in the North Pole area, Western Australia" Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, Vol. 68, No. 3, pp. 573–589.

As far as we know, there were no critters more sophisticated for nearly another billion years. Then there was a period from about 2.5 billion years ago, to about 800 million years ago when more complex cells existed but there were still no multicelled animals. Instead there are a billion years of sediments with fossilized colonies of bacteria, and early yeasts. But something important did happen at 2.5 billion years ago- the oxygen levels of the seas and air started to raise. By the time we have found the first multicelled fossil, oxygen was near 20% of today's levels.

Then following nearly 200 million years of soft-body development, the levels of dissolved calcium carbonate became high enough to trigger the "Cambrian Explosion." See:

Erwin, Douglas H., James W. Valentine
2013 "The Cambrian Explosion: The Construction of Animal Diversity" New York: Roberts and Company Publishers

What the video people are trying to say is that there is no "geological column." There is. In truth, petroleum companies have found dozens of basins with the entire column intact, and in sequence.
