    How old is our creation really?

    Few things to consider. Hebrew is not the oldest known language. The Torah was wrote most likely by Moses who spoke hebrew. In Hebrew Adam means mankind and is a play on the word, adamah. Eve means life. So Adam and Eve meant human and life. It’s not the real name of real people. Adam was...

    How old is our creation really?

    Science self corrects. But that’s not the issue here. The issue here is that people who did not fully understand what they were hearing heard jargon like “survival of the fittest” and confused that for constantly evolving new morphological or genetic advancements. But that’s not what it ever...

    That’s actually a lay persons common misunderstanding of “survival of the fittest”. Ecology is a better drive for evolution than that false notion of creating stronger, faster, meaner super beasts.

    Evolution does not work in the way of everything becoming better and better. Somethings get better. Somethings get worse. Somethings revert back to previous things. Whales evolved from tetrapods just like humans. As time went , “primates” had some species that begin to move towards bipedalism...

    The Carboniferous period was during the Paleozoic era. That’s when the Meganeura, especially the M. monyi you alluded to, lived. Millions and millions of years later, we’ll after the splitting of Pangea ( claimed to be caused by the flood according to creationist) is when we had T. Rex in the...

    Why would that be devolution? That was related to the Carboniferous variables. Which is actually one of my favorite eras.

    We don’t have to keep our eyes shut. There again are thousands of journals from every country on these topics. Take the Appalachian mountains. There are many great books on the natural history of places like Alabama, that talks about seashells on mountains. This is a link that’s not in...

    Also, the scientist who found the soft tissue, Mary, is a friend of BioLogos. She’s a Christian and a scientist and believes in what I’ve been saying..... https://biologos.org/articles/not-so-dry-bones-an-interview-with-mary-schweitzer/

    How old is our creation really?

    I wonder why Adam and Eve, is they were immortals, needed a tree of life in the garden. If they were immortal they would not need to eat from it. what are you even talking about lol. you find the same mass levels throughout different geological records. In the same records that T. rex is in...

    How old is our creation really?

    Except I’m not against God and neither is the thousands of scientists who are also Christian that disagree with the bad theology of creationism. Definitely not satanic since we believe that Jesus is Lord and that we must abide in him bearing fruit of the spirit...

    How old is our creation really?

    Not at all. There are thousands of journals out there about fossilization that does not require a global flood. I’m not the one avoiding 99.99% of scientists and experts and scientific papers. In a few more weeks I’ll have more time and I’ll start making posts every few weeks centered around...

    How old is our creation really?

    Also, I limit the time of spend doing these kinds of discussions. I mostly do it so that future college kids who are seeing a issue with a literalist interpretation vs clear scientific evidence. Again if you believe in God and also see that science clearly teaches an old earth and evolution...

    What about fossils found in volcanic ash? I am certain I understand it. That’s why you can’t answer it. That’s why they can’t answer it either. Maybe you can present some arguments from a Christian paleontologist? Just link the peer reviewed journal from a scientific community and we can go...

    How old is our creation really?

    I ll be honest. I’m not trying to sound condescending, but I don’t have time to go through 14 years of basic science to answer this in detail. Maybe you can try this. what’s the earliest geological layer that we see chickens in? What’s the species of Gallus we see in the records verses the...

    How old is our creation really?

    But that’s simply not true lol. What do you mean fossils that are weakest to strongest? We find insects, plants, and mammals mixed together in various layers and we find insects and plants prior to dinosaurs but no bipedals? Bone density, nor chemical density, is a way of categorizing...

    We see helpful mutations now within viruses. Junk DNA is a misunderstood statement by most lay people. You can check out the writings by the Christian scientist , Francis Collins, who lead the human genome project and is one of the leading geneticists in the world. He explains the genetic side...

    How old is our creation really?

    If he created everything on the sixth day, why do we not find fossils in the say geological layers? Why do we not find humans in the same layer as T-Rex? Why do we not find giant american sloths in the same layer as the earliest ferns? We see distinct ecosystems and habitats in different layers...
