And atheists still uses this as an example <:laugh:448312947073351681>

You can date up this to 8000 years

Even a gorillion year old earth doesn't necessarily contradict the Bible

Oil is supposedly gorillion year old dinosaurs...but there is oil on Titan

Oil can be made in like a week.

Naturally I think the ratio of organic matter to fossil fuel is like 3-1. Can be made 2-1 with some different additives.

BUT on different areas there have been different amount of carbon 14, and that carbon 14 appears different in different conditions.

Nazies made oil themselves for their tanks & planes.

If you subscribe to the 7 days are actually 7 sets of time. Similar to, I think Daniel, that uses the 7 days is really 7 periods of years.

Not familiar enough with the Greek translation of creation to know if that’s even remotely applicable.

Hebrew can be used like that yes

But the Hebrew word in the OT is never used to mean anything but 24 hours, even though the word technically can be used that way in the language

I think it’s the term “week” that is translated as 7 time periods for Daniel. My bad.

Modern Atheism is a part of the left.

Also, we have found multiple skeletons of Neanderthal throughout Germany (at least six different remains). More importantly, genetic studies ha e also found some Neanderthal DNA is also within modern human DNA, which suggests interbreeding between the two groups.

Also, for Peking man, the fossils were discovered in China and were studied until 1941 when they disappeared. That also coincided with the Second World War, which had also led to the destruction of or disappearance of numerous ancient artifacts throughout Europe and Asia.

Nah, he a neck beard Atheist.

Synthetic oil is made from Coal, which is another fossil fuel made from plant matter that is, roughly speaking, between 100 million to 300 million years old.

you can change coal into oil by using hydrogen to liquidize it, and you can turn oil into coal through a reverse process. technically, if you worked hard enough, you could turn crude oil into diamonds if you wanted to

Yeah, but that's the trick. It requires a lot of energy and high pressures to do so, which, geologically speaking, would take an extrmely long time to do due to how long it takes for the geology of a region to change.

It can take less than a week. With catalysts you can get it down to 2 or 3 days.

Also, we have the fortune to have nature providing us the already condensed material to use to make synthetic oil.

This is Biblically supported by the global flood. Uprooted tons of dirt/mud that piled on top of all the dead stuff.

Nature had to work with literally plant matter in order to produce coal.

Problem with that is that you need the equivalent of miles of sediment and stone to be shifted into place.

With the global flood, that happened.

It didn’t just rain a lot. The earth was literally separated.

Water exploded out from the ground.

But that would only shift the sediment in those areas, not the equivalent of mile-high mountain ranges.

Across the entire globe.

The religious theory I've heard is that there was an extremely thick layer of moisture/water in the atmosphere that was almost like another ozone layer that was brought down and flooded everything.

That one isn’t really supported by science. It technically could work, but isn’t supported as a possibility.

The plate tectonics thing likely was caused by the flood.

As in Pangea was real. Then the flood happened and shifted everything.

It wasn’t an easy thing where just rain fell and then just went like a smooth river out of the ground. We’re talking a cataclysmic event that shook the foundations of the planet.

It was so catastrophic that nearly every society has that story seared into their cultural memory.
