That's different than your religious stripe, which says, "The earth is 6000 years old, and there can be no discussion, no questioning, and no doubt about this, otherwise, you are rejecting the Word of God." Where can a person fit who a) wants to believe in a loving God and Christian doctrines, and b) believes God gave us the ability of deduction, logic, and ability to use tools and reason to more accurately understand our natural world? |

And by the way if you are going to say where did the energy come from for the big bang, then I will respond where did god come from?
If you can believe energy has always existed on a time scale we can't begin to comprehend then the same has to apply to a god. Its called logic. Apply it and both issues (god / energy) have to have a starting point by your very definition.

So you really think I am acknowledging that Galapagos turtles were once in Turkey? ![]() What I'm saying is that in your situation they were there which is, in fact, ludicrous. Especially your explanation. They were never in Turkey. That is the point which you fail to see. Likely on purpose. Attributing statements and inferences to others which haven't been said is a common practice in order to discredit the opposing side. I don't doubt there was some kind of ark and a small localized flood. But it certainly didn't contain all the animals to repopulate the world in a few thousand years or so and it certainly wasn't a global flood. |

![]() How could you possibly think that knowledge is regressive? That just makes you look so simple minded it's baffling. In the 1600s, people thought that maggots spawned directly from meat. In the 1700s or so, people realized that maggots came from flies. Perhaps we should start teaching them again that maggots magically spawn from meat, and the world is flat?

You are trying to make knowledge static, like our current knowledge can't be expanded upon and better understood. But that's not the way it is about anything.

There are over 33,000 variations of Christianity. Lucky you have found the right one. ’Kings are justly called gods for they exercise a manner or resemblance of divine power upon earth’ – King James I. This is the man that has supplied you with all the answers you need in life. Brilliant conclusion~
