I mentioned fulfiled prophecy relative to history
Got it. Interpreting vague prophecies to fit one of the many events in history. Too bad that another interpretation would disqualify many of those prophecies as being fulfilled. Try again Nostradamus.

I agree but our model includes such physical phenomena as I have cited above.
So you're saying your model includes factors that cannot be tested for in any way, left no evidence and run contradictory to modern applied sciences?
I'm waiting for a Goddidit.

As I've argued time and again, the Biblical model implies pre-flood conditions which should render modern dating methodology inaccurate. Thus if we don't know what the properties of the atmosphere were before the flood, how can we test for acurate dating? We can't so we come up with varied date hypotheses. We use what corroborating evidence we can assemble and build our hypothesis on those.
How convenient. Your model rejects applied modern sciences and instead argues that conditions that cannot be tested for and left no evidence were in fact existing over conditions that we can test for and we know to occur at known rates. That the entire system of physical laws were in fact not operation prior to the flood and that during the flood somehow without leaving
any trace whatsoever these laws of physics magically changed? Also that life as a whole which operated under the different set of physical laws was able to thrive and expand in a world governed by a new set of physical laws with no adverse or noticeable effects? Goddidit? Magic?
I'm calling your argument complete and absolute bull****.

We believe we do have something to offer but the majority has the bully pulpit in education, the media and the mainstream science arena.
For a reason. Mainstream science works on the principles that assertions have to be tested. Your model relies upon a assumption that cannot be tested period and requires magic to work.
The laws of physics changed radically
but left no evidence of their change or previous state!
Right.....
