I'll second that notion. AND she is a democrat๐
Originally posted by SuzianneYou're most welcome, Suzianne. Yes, dualism versus non-dualism really is the "big divide". I find profundity where you find weakness, you find profundity where I find weakness. And there are profound thinkers on both sides of that divide--who have often been friends in spite of their disagreements (I think of Thomas Merton and D.T. Suzuki, for example). I, for one, find no reason to be offended.
Why thank you, vistesd!
I'm one of those who think that the Biblical creation is merely an outline. It wasn't written for modern scholars so details are definitely lacking. I believe God engineered it, but that he used natural processes to accomplish his goals. Processes that are still at work today. I believe this is critical to understanding the Go ...[text shortened]... words. You flatter me, nearly to the point of giving me more credit than I deserve.
Originally posted by RJHindsIt's okay. Just think: the universe is over one MILLION times older than that. It can be a little tough to wrap your head around that, I know.
You are right. I did not think to do any adding. I was only thinking of subtracting, since the dates were so far out there. However, I still doubt the dates they assigned are that old.

Originally posted by vistesdNo doubt. This is how humans of different religions can continue to co-exist on the planet together. Agree to disagree on religion, and yet support and defend one another on subjects they do agree on. Since we're all humans, there has to be more to agree on than to disagree on.
So, religion aside, I'm sure we agree on many things! ๐

Originally posted by SuzianneYou must have never heard of the Cambrian explosion. The term Cambrian explosion describes the geologically sudden appearance of animals in the fossil record during the Cambrian period of geologic time.

Originally posted by SuzianneYou THINK. If the Earth was really that old then why do we still have volcanoes erupting with red hot lava flows. The Earth should have been long cooled down by now, because of the hugh oceans and polar ice caps. And that is just one of the many problems in explaining a 4.5 billion year old Earth.
It's okay. Just think: the universe is over one MILLION times older than that. It can be a little tough to wrap your head around that, I know.
Try it sometime. Just think to yourself, if the universe is really that old (more than 13 billion years old), and the earth is a little over 1/3 as old as that (4.5 billion years old), what would you have to ch ...[text shortened]... y not much.

Originally posted by RJHindsPerhaps a short course in geology would straighten you out but I doubt it. Exactly how do you think a few miles of ocean is going to cool a white hot core thousands of miles deep? It's 4+ billion and counting and the core has not cooled all that much.

Originally posted by sonhouseI don't know much about the Earth's core. However, it seems that 4.5 billion years to be a long time for the Earth's core to stay so hot. Anyway, I mentioned the Cambrian Explosion because the fossil records show that the major animal kinds came into existence all of a sudden like in the Holy Bible. It is the time in history that it happened that the evilutionists have wrong.

In fact the core got hotter because of the body that hit the Earth creating the moon. The debris from t ...[text shortened]... llions of years in the past. Good luck getting anyone here, ANYONE, to believe your crap.
Originally posted by RJHindsWhat? WHAT?? Do you even understand the dynamics of geothermal energy? How about hyper-dimensional physics? Put two and two together and you better thank God that the core of this planet is still dynamic and not dead like Mars. It's why we have a magnetic field that protects us from solar flares and bursts of gamma radiation.
