Westwall and Drock continue to insist that what they KNOW is irrefutable, DESPITE the lack of evidence.
Wrong. We KNOW very little (comparatively), that's why we are allways looking. I have just shown you how every year we are presented with new facts that challenge the paradigm. Why do you insist on ignoring what I post? I have also posted evidence as has Loki that refutes your contention and you CHOOSE to ignore it. I am not responsible for your close mindedness. That's all on you.
What's truly sad is we are both creationists. I just understand that nature takes a lot longer to work her magic. You "believe" that God did everything in a few days, I "believe" that it took a hell of a lot longer. You remind me of the Albigensians who were hunted down and killed by the Spanish Inquisition because they argued about how many Angels could dance on the head of a pin. Imagine that. Entire regions of southern France were exterminated over that pithy a reason. That is the type of closed mindedness you are exibiting now.
No, it's really not. What is close minded is a Creationist who thinks that God isn't capable of creating a world that confounds men who refuse to accept his Word. It's sheer arrogance that you think you have figured out the creation timeline of the world, despite the fact that there is absolutely no way to know for sure.
And we don't know for sure. We think we have it down, then another discovery comes along and puts the lie to whatever the current fad is.
You insist on putting words into my mouth that I did not say and I don't appreciate it. Why would God create a world to confound man? What possible reason could he have for doing such a thing? It has no bearing on mans belief in God, it has no bearing on how man treats man, it has no reason at all. On the other hand if God creates this wonderful universe over billions of years and for the most part sits back and watches, he get's to observe man discover the wonders of nature, he gets the thrill of watching His creation discover how the natural world works.
In other words, in one case he is a malevolent git who enjoys playing dirty tricks on His creation and in the other God is a creator who sets up the universe and then sits back to see how it all comes out. His creations are allowed to discover things for themselves and for the sake of the discovery itself. The quest for knowledge that has driven man since man became man.
If there is a God I know which version I respect more.
