Thread Name: BS: Young Earth Creationism Eureka--Contd...
Subject: RE: BS: YEC Eureka--Contd...
i guess that in some respects i do have less to cope with .there have been some things that i am not at present,if ever ,academic enough to debate further,but mostly because most arguments amount to argument from authority and assertion without substance.
i have often pointed out that abiogenesis is impossible and the fossil record is largely lacking in anything evidencing gradualistic change .i have quoted evolutionists admitting as much.
of course you could quote christian compromisers with darwinism,but to be a valid equivalent IMO it should be creationist scientist quote.
and you may be able to find something ,as their studies are still ongoing, not withstanding some atheists assertions to the contrary!

i read most of the ruse court testimony and found some of it quite entertaining.i thought the cross examination mostly done a good job demonstrating his inconsistencies and prejudice against creationists.

i heard an interesting snippet on a radio sermon though i cant ref it.
maybe you,s can vouch for or deny its accuracy;-
herbert spencer d 1903;said the basic elements of science are -
time-force-action-space-matter.
if correct i doubt if he considered the biblical text-

TIME          FORCE   ACTION    SPACE       MATTER.
