But I think this theory can help us even more. If everybody believed in it, it would certainly change most people's perspective of themselves in this world. I'm sure most would come to the conclusion that I have: We belong to this world, this world does not belong to us like religion would have you belive. Maybe if most people felt like this, we wouldn't have all the environmental problems we have now.
JM: Indeed this argument has been forwarded many times by environmentalists! The basic difference, I think, is that creationists have already made their conclusions and seek out snippets of modern science that
apparently support those conclusions. Once the details are opened up, the realization comes that creationists skipped the details and the threads disappear into oblivion. This is happening right now to the baumgardner thread and the radiometric dating thread. Past journeys into oblivion can be found by looking at the history of the page. One thing you can be certain of, like the Phoenix, these arguments (sans details) will be raised from the ashes tima and again by creationists with the same results.
