Not to bring up a quote from the past, but I'm a bit irked by this. Nowhere can I ascertain from Ne-Yo's post that speculation of the earth's age is existent among Evolutionists. Whether or not it really exists, which honestly isn't the point of this post, I don't think it's what Ne-Yo was trying to say about scientists of that field. I think he was rather referring to creationists. |

Actually, scientists know that the levels of Carbon has flucuated in the past and their tests compensate for this fluctuation |

I was born in 1968 (december). I am 40 now and will be 41 this coming december. I left school in 1985 and remember getting my computer in the first or second year (UK high school runs for 5 years). I was therefore 12 maybe 13. You are a kid. If you find being a kid an insult then I suggest this is your problem and not mine. |

- Are you an idiot?
- No sir, I'm a dreamer.
I can answer why scientists would use a method that is inaccurate... for the same reason it teaches an unproven theory in schools as to how we got here. They don't mind teaching this evolution THEORY as a fact, they also don't mind relying on something that is also inaccurate to date things back millions of years.. From what I can tell, time and time again, if a man can't wrap his head around something, he'd rather believe an unproven and very flawed theory just so that he can imagine it. In my opinion, if they teach one theory they should teach them all. But the truth is there will never be proof of how we got here so it's no one's damn business teaching it as the truth in school. The same goes for carbon dating. Time and time again it's been tested with objects that have known ages and it will test millions of years old, when tested again will come up with a different number even. This was going on back in the 90's when I first studied it. Now I won't claim to know, since I haven't done any recent study, any changes that have been made, or further discovery. But as far as I can tell, carbon dating relies upon itself to prove itself. Now how the hell is that gonna get anyone anywhere? Same goes for evolution theory. Pick your faith, whether it's in an almighty god or a theory that will NEVER be proven. Or in a system that relies upon itself. |

If you're English you already lose. LOL Yes I know, yes I lived there for years, yes I married in and as far as I can tell you will all die from alcoholism. I'm widowed for it after all, and all the people I met were just the same, some died already, some died since, and some in the process of it. You know, I only met one sober person while I lived there in nearly 10 years time.... it doesn't help that if you drink you can become incapacitated for it (which is fine as people in all problems need help) but to be given MORE money to be a registered alcoholic does NOTHING but EXACERBATE the problem. Just sayin' I wouldn't flop around your being English as if it has some sort of relevance or as if you're any more stubborn or right than anyone else. |

I can't stand it when in disagreement people start acting childish by name calling, insulting, and especially saying someone is young. I've seen a lot of young people with wiser and smarter brains than some doctors, scientists, or a bunch of people that think they know everything because they spend their days on the internet rather than in the real world. I agree you put your faith in man or God. PERIOD. It's all faith based. And whether your English, Australian, American, Vietnamese or whatever, I will always call someone out on their bull****! And I expect no less. However, I DO expect respect otherwise you have no business debating. If you can't be respectful in your argument then perhaps you are the one that needs to go do your homework and get to bed, don't forget to eat your veggies and clean behind your ears. |

There are a very large number of independent methods for checking the hypothesis of evolution is true. Every single one of these confirms the hypothesis; not a single one contradicts it. You can read about them here: |

So, you - someone completely new to the forums - are going to burst into a 3 year old conversation with no idea of the context and background in which this original discussion took place, and have the audacity to sit there in ignorance and lecture people with degrees on the subjects they discuss, when your opinions on the matter aren't even worth the virtual paper they're written on? |

I am baffled by religion as a whole, but especially Christianity, and so I become frustrated, and my thoughts run amuck. This post is well thought out and well written. Nothing particularly special, but well written, as are many of the posts by Xei and others. |

Sweet dreams and roses on your pillow.
I don't like how they teach theories as facts in school either. The theory of the atom is just a theory, which means it's just some crazy idea somebody had. He was probably stoned. The theory of the electromagnetic spectrum is being taught as fact too, and I object. Some weird scientist who probably shot up marijuana and worshipped Satan also said that Earth revolves around the sun. Why are we teaching his stupid theory instead of everybody else's theories? It would be fair to at least also teach in school that all matter is composed of elf bubbles, light and microwave oven heat come from Jesus' halo, and the Milky Way Galaxy revolves around Earth. Both sides should be represented. |

This may be pretty random, but here it goes... |

Do more research in geology. Examine what that field says with regard to those topics before jumping to conclusions. |

Er... are you serious? You've never heard of tectonics? Landmasses move around over millions of years. In particular, mountain ranges are formed by two tectonic plates (which are large pieces of the Earth's crust) being forced together, so that the boundary is forced upwards. Whichever mountains you're talking about, if you look up their geological history, you will find that the tectonic plate they lie on used to form a sea bed. |
