    The post above me explains why there are fossils in high mountains so I wont repeat that. I will add that proof of what he is saying can be found by the fact that the Himalaya are still rising, by ...[text shortened]... y with so many writers.

    Why can't you accept the fact that some of your book might be wrong?
    Because I haven't found any of it that has been proven wrong yet.

    The lineage of Jesus is different in different gospels. At least one of them therefore must be wrong. (More likely, they are both wrong!)

    Of course, lots of things are theories. Evolution is a theory. Time travel is a theory.

    Evolution is not a theory. It's fact, whether people want to accept it or not.

    One (Matthew 1) is Joseph's lineage. The other (Luke 3) is Mary's. For obvious reasons.

    Do you believe that to be literally true?

    It is a common and straightforward explanation.

    How then does your flood hypothesis explain how certain fossils are only in certain stratigraphic layers? I made a specific argument as to why plate tectonics is the correct explanation. Please address my specific argument. Either your hypothesis needs to explain fossil/strata correlation, or you need to argue that there isn't any fossil/strata correlation. Merely declaring something as propaganda is not a legitimate discussion point, unless you explain why that particular something is propaganda (and I am unclear specifically what exactly you are referring to as propaganda).

    As to the age of the earth, we know this through radiometric dating, so you need to explain why radiometric dating is incorrect, and also explain what method should be used to calculate the age of the Earth.

    You are correct that evolution is a theory. However you are not correct about time travel. Time travel is an hypothesis (at best).

    That's it.

    Finding you Dee Dee in a thread entitled 'facts', is hilarious in itself.

I would have more respect for clerics if they were not so sure of them selves, and if they were less sanctimonious!
    I think it is what their audience expects. Try admitting doubt, and watch the pews empty...

    No one in their right mind "tests" religion with prayer. Prayer is the response of faith in what one already knows is true.

    "Rational people know that this is not a scientific test, but those duped by religion don't see it that way!"

    What do you know about rationality, when you make ridiculous statements like that?

    Let me know when you finish sorting through all the worlds duped people, then tell me how many of them are Christians.

    I wonder when you'll realize how ignorant your post is.
