getting back on topic -- flaws in creationism
The last message that was close to being on topic that I could find was by loudmouth:
http://EvC Forum: A fatal logical flaw in creationism?
However, it seems that scientists aren't given the same respect. Instead, they are told that everything that scientists have discovered over the last 150 years is wrong. They are wrong not because of scientific reasons, but because people don't like the conclusions. This is my main source of frustration, showing evidence that is not in question to support a theory whose conclusion is disliked. I guess it would be easier to take the creationist route, start with a likeable conclusion.
I guess the moral for creationists is this. If you think evolution is wrong, then study biology and figure out where it is wrong. Studying the Bible for answers in science won't get you very far.
If you are going to show that science is wrong, it must be done on the same basis as the science used, and it must stand up to the scientific method. It must be repeatable, and all other causes of errors need to be eliminated by controlled experiments. Finally it must provide a basis for better understanding that resolves these problems.
enjoy.

Re: There had to be a first!
What grade of education did you stop at? I feel sorry for your children that are homeschooled. For one thing, what does a mask have to do with this? You argue like a 3rd Grader. And I've never seen sin walk up behind somebody and stab them in the back...
Sorry if I'm so blunt, but I can be a jerk sometimes.

So please, seek practical and logical thruth! "
Did you found the abs thruth ? Because I see that you give "smart" advices how this thruth can be found...
I advice you not to give advices for something you don't know.
There is no "practical" thruth . The absolute thruth is logical , but what is logic? Is it logical to give something for nothing? Is love logical? Is the universe logical? When a young man finds out that he has a brain damage and he will die in 6 moths is that logical? When a man is burned because he says that the earth is spheric is that right?

This thread is too old; I'm closing it.
Welcome to EvCforum, RCST.
Have a look around, and try to find a more up to date thread if you want to post. If you reply to another post, use the reply button at the bottom of the post; not the one at the top of a page. This links your post into the thread properly.
This thread is now closed.
Cheers -- AdminSylas
