Questions from Christians Regarding Evolution

[CrowCross]

@John Bauer @CrowCross

The fallacy claim is never going to be resolved so it is time to move on. Otherwise, the thread will stagnate in repetitive claims of "yes I did", "No you didn't" and either be reported for staff to deal with or ignored.

The truth of the matter is no one here was witness to any of the theories put forth by differing opinion within the scientific community. Everyone is reading second and third hand material and deciding which one they think is more reliable. None of it can be proven, not even dating.

Some what true.
For example...dating...using the linages presented in the bible one can extrapolate backwards like Bishop Ussher did and conclude the earth and Adam were made about 4,000 years ago. Even if some of Jesus descendants were left out, lets say 1/2 of them...the earth would then only be about 8,000 years old which is still "young" compared to several billions of years the Theistic evolutionist claim it to be.

None of it can be connected to Scripture or the creation account as no one was there either.

I disagree. Yes, we were not there but we have the witness of the bible.

To believe the creation account given in Gen requires faith---not science. And faith is actually believing what God says and trusting in it. Science has been unable in all their probing to find the source of life in a test tube. and I heard, from a well-known scientist that they have looked. Is that true? I have no idea.

Science can often be used to support the "models" of the Young Earth Creationist. Examples have been provided on different threads in this forum.

As a conversation young earth vs old earth is very interesting to some. Different forms of evolution vs no evolution is interesting to some. But the term evolution needs to be clearly defined so one person isn't talking about one form and someone else another when they are talking to each other. Let's keep the conversation where it belongs.

When I look over the list of conversations on this forum as well as other forums I find some interesting while others conversations I don't find interesting. The ones I don't find interesting I skip over and don't reply to. If any follower of this form and particularly this thread don't find it interesting or have nothing to add....they can simply skip it.

If it is by a mod in red, it is to arbitrate a dispute. It is not given for discussion of its content. Any disagreement with the arbitration itself, should be done in a DM.

Note: There were no bees or spiders in the Cambrian period. Those appeared much later (from Devonian–Carboniferous onward)

Would you expect to find bees or spiders in Cambrian fossils? From what I understand the bees and spiders didn't hang out with trilobites. Perhaps I'm mstaken.
