Re: Layers build slowly over time ... lots of time
In your first answer to my question you cited tree rings. Message 1608
So I asked in Message 1609 why you would question tree ring growth.
Do you have some reason to believe trees grew faster a few thousand years in the past?
All of the *facts*, not beliefs, the facts about tree rings is they grow one per year. Do you have any facts, not beliefs, any real facts that dispute this process?
I don't want to hear any of this "but, maybe" crap from you. If you say tree rings grew faster then show us your evidence.

Re: Layers build slowly over time ... lots of time
Who cares what anyone believes about how fast trees used to grow?
You care. Message 1608 But you forgot that.
So, again, you got any evidence that "the Nature" changed just enough to negate the damaging facts that make your religious dogmas delusional fantasies?

Re: Layers build slowly over time ... lots of time
I care how fast trees used to grow, and care about what evidence exists for how fast trees grew.
Great! Now we may be getting somewhere.
How fast did trees "used" to grow? What evidence exists for how fast trees used to grow?
I'm glad you care about this evidence. That means you know what that evidence is. What is it?

Re: Layers build slowly over time ... lots of time
As far as science is concerned, they do not know how fast tree used to grow.
Sure we do. Trees of old grew at the same rate as trees today. No difference. None.
Why should we think otherwise?
As far as the bible record of the deep past on earth goes, trees apparently did grow super fast, and unlike anything we observe today.
Is that your evidence? Your errant book of fairy tales? Rejected.
Got any real evidence that trees used to grow faster?
No. No you don't because they didn't.

Re: Layers build slowly over time ... lots of time
Your rote rejection of the evidence presented is ignored.
YOU still have no evidence that natural processes differed yesterday to today.
Your bible is not such evidence since its 3000 year old goat herder myths have no independent corroborating lines of evidence to sustain them.
You have nothing but the childish antics of see no reality, hear no reality, acknowledge no reality. You are a poster child for religious nut jobs.

Re: Layers build slowly over time ... lots of time
YOU still have no evidence that natural processes are the same yesterday to today.
Message 1352
I know. The logic escapes you. Regardless, the evidence is there and is quite compelling.
You, on the other hand, have your goat herder fantasies which means you have nothing.
I do not care what you think or believe about God or His word.
These posts aren't for you. They are for the lurkers, the gallery, those who come read the arguments in these threads. They understand your goat book is fallacious and has the same efficacy as a Dick and Jane second grade reader.
History is a colossal sympathy of fulfilled prophesy.
Yeah, I too got a whole big bunch a sympathy for you poor religious nut jobs and your colossally crazy sham soothsayers.

Re: Layers build slowly over time ... lots of time
The evidence I presented is colored by reality. Facts not beliefs. Real evidence with a real reality color. Real facts and real logic. So shiny. Colorful. So pretty.
A whole lot better, realistic and colorful than your bland BS-colored goat book.
So do you have any other lines of evidence outside your goat book that natural laws change anywhere anytime?
This is an open invitation for you to spout your delusions in other unique and borderline cognizant ways.

Re: Just as the fact that there is no "Bible" ...
If you offer computers or anything else in this world as evidence that so called science that deals in origins fables knows ...
What origin fables would those be? Certainly not the talking snake one? Maybe the wolf and the raven one?

They are entirely based on beliefs and beliefs alone.
What beliefs would those be?

Re: Just as the fact that there is no "Bible" ...
In the case of the evolution of life, the main belief is in a same nature in the past.
Why do you say this is a belief and not a reality?

In the case of the evolution of life, the main belief is in a same nature in the past.
Why do you say this is a belief and not a reality?
Because reality involves more than imagination and belief.
If the reality of nature was not the same in the past, when and how was it different?

Re: Just as the fact that there is no "Bible" ...
Certainly the world described in early Sumer seemed different, since they have people living many centuries.
"seemed"? Doesn't sound very reliable or scientific. Is there any evidence the Sumerians actually had lifespans of many centuries or did it only seem that way?
They also had spirits living with us in Egyptian records.
Did they? Did they really? How do you know that?
That would not be natural now.
No, it wouldn't be. Makes you wonder if such things are real or just stories.
