Re: Basics Faith, basics.
It is incontrovertible science that the geological record was not produced by a flood. And the Bible doesn’t say otherwise. That’s just you and other YECs - and you’re extreme even among that crew.

Re: Basics Faith, basics.
The age of the Earth and life is solidly settled science, not conjecture. Your interpretation of the Bible is wrong in many particulars.

Cheers, Faith.
What if the science isn't wrong?

Re: Basics Faith, basics.
Not possible. It would have to fit somehow or be wrong.
Cheers back to you.

Re: Basics Faith, basics.
Well, it ain't wrong. Therefore it fits and your interpretation of the Bible is wrong.
You've claimed infallibility many times. You're fallible.

To which I point out, that it is you who says that the Flood story is intended literally not the Bible
And that the Bible does have errors as shown by the known contradictions.
And that you have no problem misrepresenting the Bi le when it is convenient for you.
And that you have no remotely sensible alternative to the science anyway. Deception, falsehood and smears yes. Sensible arguments. No.

Re: Basics Faith, basics.
Bible has no effors. The word "literal'' is easily misconstrued, that's all.

So you admit your interpretation is fallible. Thank you.

Explain to me how the post-Resurrection appearances to the Disciples can be in Galilee (without a hint of any anywhere else) and only in and around Jerusalem.
And that’s just one example.

Not in this case.

It's an easy question. What would that mean?

Re: Basics Faith, basics.
Depends on what science is involved. It might only mean I have to give up a particular theory of my own, which in fact has happened.

Re: Basics Faith, basics.
You are of course thinking of a scientific fact that would challenge the truth of the Bible. So do you have one?

Not the Bible, just the interpretation that the earth is young,
And the interpretation that a world wide flood occurred,
For starters.

Re: Basics Faith, basics.
RThere is no scientific fact that challenges that biblical event. The dating methods are not verifiable.
