Re: Conclusion vs Assumption, Belief, teach the difference
I daresay I think you have NO remains of any man before the flood, or even shortly after it. Your dates are wrong.
What you think does not change reality. So far you have not presented a shred of evidence to support your fantasy.

Re: Conclusion vs Assumption, Belief, teach the difference
When pictures are drawn, for example of the Cambrian world, we do not see lions and man and birds...etc etc.
What do we see? Animals that all lived in a marine habitat. Land plants had not evolved yet. No mammals, no birds, no land animals lived during the Cambrian. No etc etc ever walked the Cambrian world.
Face it. Those things lived at the time. Be honest about the sick models science posits of the past!
Be honest, you just pulled that out of your ass. Your imaginary, fictional fantasy is based on nothing but BS.
We have evidence, you have bullshit. You need to up your game, so far all you demonstrate is your ignorance.

Because there was no flood.
Teaching evolution and religion in school should be based on fact, not fantasy.

Re: Conclusion vs Assumption, Belief, teach the difference
You have no evidence for your religious claims of dates that have been labeled science falsely.
Bottom line, any claim that a fossilized or other remains of man is pre flood rests solely on your beliefs of a same nature in the past. Nothing else at all ever.

There was no big bang, or first lifeform or same nature in the past. Making claims is easy. Why would sane people teach your beliefs??

Re: Conclusion vs Assumption, Belief, teach the difference
Exactly, a strange world where most life here did not yet exist, but only the fossilized creatures from which all future life had to have evolved!
That is not the way the bible says things happened. Man and animals and birds were here also. They just could not leave fossilized remains, most likely! That was the way it was back in that former nature for whatever reasons.
From dust early man was made, and to dust apparently (rather than fossilized remains) he returned!!!!!!

Re: Conclusion vs Assumption, Belief, teach the difference

Says the person making up claims: you should know.
Developing conclusions from evidence not so easy, as you should also know, because there is an absence of evidence for your assertions -- you can't find any ... so you try to make it up.
... Why would sane people teach your beliefs??
Because they are conclusions based on evidence, not mere belief, and sane people can look at the evidence and decide that the conclusions are valid.
This is the kind of thing that needs to be taught: how to tell fact from fantasy, how to use evidence to support your arguments, how to apply rational thinking to the issues.
Again, you are a poster child for the empty vapidness that is creationism: pontificating on things you don't have evidence for ... loudly, frequently, as if repetition can change reality;

How is this an answer to that?
creation writes:

Well, my claim is that you still fail to provide any evidence to support your imaginary, fictitious fantasy.
To clarify things for you, I have made no religious claims, nor any dates that have been labeled science falsely.
creation writes:

No one is claiming any remains are pre-flood. We are claiming there is not a shred of evidence of your flood. Your flood is fiction. Your beliefs about changes in nature are pure fantasies from your own muddled ignorance, nothing else at all ever.

The bible says nothing what so ever about the Cambrian. The bible is fiction, so it is not reliable.
creation writes:
Man and animals and birds were here also.
There were lots of species of animals in the Cambrian, but there were no humans or birds in the Cambrian. You are making up pure BS.
creation writes:

More made up BS.
creation writes:

If there was a former nature you would not be able to make any claims about it.
Scientists report what they find in Cambrian deposits and there is no reason to pretend that your imaginary, fictional fantasy former nature is reality.

And all human tools, buildings, footprints, artwork, gardens, and livestock?
All mysteriously went to dust, right?
For ... "whatever reason".
Sure, I can believe that.

Oh, wait! They DID fly in the previous state! I forgot ...
Once again, your logic is overwhelming.

Mere belief foisted on evidences is all you have shown you are able to do actually. Further pretense is in vain.

Re: Conclusion vs Assumption, Belief, teach the difference
All science claims about origins are religious claims. It is those 'science' claims here that must be supported. Not other beliefs!
There is all sorts of evidence for the past events you deny. Both the science evidences that you have misunderstood and contorted and violated, as well as historical, and Scriptural.

Re: Conclusion vs Assumption, Belief, teach the difference
The thing is that after the flood was when the nature change likely came! That was possibly responsible for the tectonic changes that moved continents, uplift, mountain building, ice age, and more! Add to this the great changes and destruction of the flood year and we are left with the startling realization that what is the surface of the earth today may not represent any sort of reflection of what the earth and life was like before this.
Former cities could now be miles under the earth, or under mountain ranges...etc etc. That is exactly what I assume happened to the tower of Babel actually, and why we don't see it today.
Then there was God's clean up plan in the flood year, that I assume dealt with the dead bodies somehow, perhaps partially by some chemical processes in the water! ( as well as likely by organic ways, and new instinctual/dietary habits of animals and bugs, etc etc) I sometimes wonder if the iridium we see in the KT layer might be somehow a remnant of the chemical reactions?
[since we will again see nature similar to what it was in the former nature times in the future according to the bible, we can expect dietary changes n animals again!]
Nowthen, since the nature change came after the flood presumably, that also was when man and animals and even many plants started to be able to leave remains!!! That fits the evidence!

One Trick Pony
Mere belief foisted on evidences is all you have shown you are able to do actually. Further pretense is in vain.
We have reviewed your thesis and reject it for the following reasons:
The effort you've put into researching and documenting the evidence to substantiate your thesis is grossly insufficient for a school program based on facts.
Repeating the same assertions without reference to facts is indiscernible from delusion, and has no place in school.
You basic thesis provides nothing for educational value in schools, it leads nowhere. There is insufficient information provided to base a study plan for even a single class period.
Please review these comments and make changes if you want your thesis to be accepted for school use -- as anything other than a bad example.
Enjoy

Can you list all the science claims about origins? You would need to do that if you are teaching that in the classroom.

Beliefs have no place in science classes.
creation writes:

Well, then you should be able to present it to the class. You keep making empty claims about evidence, but the students would laugh you out of the class if you showed them what you claim is evidence.
creation writes:

I have not seen that you know any of the scientific evidence. I can imagine you in front of the class, "The science evidences are misunderstood and contorted and violated. The goat herders knew about stuff."
creation writes:

You have already demonstrated that you have no knowledge of history or scripture. Scripture is fiction and and only should be taught in lit class.
