Theological brouhaha.
Kozak flummoxed by what really is science.
Myanus doesn’t spin at all!
The evidence plainly makes the Earth only a few thousand years old.
There is zero speculation in that fact; it is pure observation without application of an extraneous agenda.
>> “Not all scientists practice good science - global warming is just one such example” <<
.
Old Earth fantasies are the others.
Of course he did. Thats not in question. The question is, "how"?
And thats where the science guys come in.
Its OK when not everything adds up or that we get it wrong from time to time, in fact its guaranteed that we'll get it wrong on the way to getting it progressively more right. Anomalies are how we get to the next level of understanding. You develop a theory that seems to work. If it works well enough, the engineers use it to build things. Then over time you begin to find the places where it doesn't work, and in figuring out why it doesn't work you find another theory that works better and your formulas get sharpened and your engineers come out with a wave of newer and cooler toys and tools on the market.
And so it goes until you begin to pick holes in your new level of understanding. Insight, followed by science, followed by engineers, followed by anomalies, followed by insight, science, engineers and so on round and round.
Figuring out why the universe seems to be geologically alive is a good project for the science guys. Figuring out that you should love God and love your neighbor, learning how to walk with God and let him flow through you into the circumstances in which you find yourself is another realm of competence.
>> Io is frictionally heated by the gravitational changes of its elliptical orbit close to massive Jupiter; that energy never “runs out.” <<
nonsense. It would become a hollow, dead shell, without any source of friction in less than 10,000 years.
>> “The moon is covered in dust and last I checked it reflects light just fine” <<
.
Actually, the moon landings established that the moon has almost no dust at all. They had been expecting over 100 meters of dust.
>> “ I would imagine it could probably be calculated how much rotational energy Io steals from Jupiter with each orbit.” <<
.
Exactly as much as jupiter ‘steals’ back.
>> “Uh no absurdity surprises me on these Creation Science threads” <<
.
Me either!
And all of it comes from the self-appointed ‘science’ groupies that feebly attempt to ‘debunk’ reality.
Typical comeback by Evo.
To all; this is another example of the feeble Evo comeback. Notice the use of an ad hominem without backing up what the Evo states. Typical for Evos, name calling instead of rational logic.
Is she the puzzle or the missing piece?
You might wish to check your meds.
Thanks for the ping!
Indeed. Thanks for the ping!
Well and truly said, dear brother in Christ, thank you!
In short, ANY answer does.
But isn't that (supposedly) the point of research in the first place, to find answers? Then obviously, when the answers are found, research is no longer needed.
It's a great point. Again, scientists have been caught red handed, doing the very thing they condemn in others.
Indeed, once they say "Nature did it" they quit looking as if there's nothing more possible.
