"7. The Earth's Magnetic Field:
The Earth's magnetic field is decaying at the rate of about 5 % every 100 years. This means that about 1450 years ago it was twice as strong as it is today, and 2900 years ago it was four times as strong. Therefore, assuming that the rate of decay has been constant for the recent past, ..."

Nonsense. the rate of change is variable, so this point is invalid.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_magnetic_field
The direction and intensity of the dipole change over time. Over the last two centuries the dipole strength has been decreasing at a rate of about 6.3% per century.[9] At this rate of decrease, the field would reach zero in about 1600 years.[19] However, this strength is about average for the last 7 thousand years, and the current rate of change is not unusual.

Why do you not have problems with all the assumptions evolutionists make?

insults come your way.

Can you give me an example of me "hurling an insult" at a Christian because he or she was a Christian? You've made the accusation and now you have denied making it. You can clear this up now with an example or two.

Would you agree that this is the place for christians to have their faith tested?

since i posted that thread i feel i should respond. ive read a lot of his comments [tho not all] and he quotes from texts outside the bible, which i have read, so that gives me knowledge that he is searching for the truth without blinkers on. i do not go down the route of slanging others, well i try not to.

but to your querie it a place to learn and teach your christian beliefs

Do you think RJHinds goes "down the route of slanging others"?

i think you may find the magnetic field switchs on average every 10,000 years according to findings.
assumptions should be questioned, even ones of faith. we have learnt that much surely

ive not read all his posts, but the ones ive read do not give me that impression, but it is easy to slip into that even from me.

I do not remember if you have made insults against Christians or not.
But that is not what I accused you of doing. It seems to me that you
have no problem when someone does for you make no attempt to
say anything about it like you do when it is the other way around.

Here's what you said:

So you are saying that you can insult me because other people have insulted you for being a Christian?

When have I claimed "it is perfectly okay for insults to be hurled at Christians"?

No Mormans or Jehovah's Witnesses either. The Roman Church has
brought Paganism into Christian worship, even the JW's will testify
to that fact. Why can't you see it? They also taught falsehoods
throughout the centuries. The Priest Martin Luther was was the
first within their organization to challenge the false teachings from
the Pope.

as i said i disagree with aspects. i do not see paganism tho, some would state christmas has paganism included but it just fits in ok by me, it maybe used to sell sell sell rather than the meaning but thats human nature, its still a festive season for everyone to enjoy. Martin Luther changed the thinking because he was a child of a priest and a nun, then [and i forget his name] put the bible in english this open up the whole thing, the pope banned it for reasons but now they embrace it. now the rosary is embraced within the church of england with no problem. i know the R.C. have a pray for every saint, and that is slowly being included within the english church. infalability of the pope was sacrosant but even that is becomeing old school

oh so the pope spewed some false teachings and some people saw fit to challenge his opinions. yet you are incapable to see the false teachings in genesis and other parts of the old testament.

so in the end, it is only a matter of whether another is part of your club or not. not a matter of truth.

Martin Luther translated the Holy Bible from Latin into German.
The language of the people and the Pope tried to prevent it
because He wanted to keep the people ignorant so they would
have to listen to what he said. Easter is also from a pagan
source and was adopted to replace the Passover of the Jews,
since the Pope hated the Jews and wanted nothing to do with
the Jewish festivals and holy days. They even changed the time
of the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ to fit the Roman
calendar and even though Christ was born at the time of the
Passover, that could not be allowed. So they changed His birthday
to coincide with the Pagan festival of the birth of the sun at the
winter solstice and changed its name to Christmas to make it seem
Christian.

P.S.
