bruh

2021-02-03 18:24:48 UTC  

I love how Christians will say "science proves religion true" but thats a bullshit argument.

2021-02-03 18:24:57 UTC  

But if massive parts of the bible can be disproven or ignored can we trust any of it?

2021-02-03 18:25:18 UTC  

but they have though research the flaws with radiometric dating they are obvious.

2021-02-03 18:26:31 UTC  

That's why I try to dodge it.

2021-02-03 18:26:55 UTC  

That is the question and I don't have the answer. It again points to faith.

2021-02-03 18:27:18 UTC  

But when they already know how old something is and radiometric date it and it says its about a million years older I would say that's flawed

2021-02-03 18:27:28 UTC  

Really? Your only justification is to blindly believe in what has otherwise been disproven?

2021-02-03 18:28:19 UTC  

Because in several circumstances, the other hasn't been conclusively proven. I refer you back to my long essay from yesterday.

2021-02-03 18:28:38 UTC  

Ok but lets say they all are proven to be flawed... then what?

2021-02-03 18:29:09 UTC  

The thing is, although science hasn't found a "completely 100% definitive answer" to something like the Earth's age, we've learned enough to know that the Christian explanation is wrong, so we should stop talking about it and work to find the real answer.

2021-02-03 18:30:55 UTC  

the question is has anyone witnessed the beginning of earth? So technically speaking (if we are not counting creation) then this is all just speculation. Both opinions are wrong. We don't have any evidence for either.

2021-02-03 18:31:45 UTC  

Like God

2021-02-03 18:32:11 UTC  

Sorry this is off topic but @Southernpatriot01 am I right in thinking that you guys made a Christian server a while back? If yes, could I join?

2021-02-03 18:32:20 UTC  

We did.

2021-02-03 18:32:44 UTC  

@Southernpatriot01 would I be able to join as well?

2021-02-03 18:32:59 UTC  

Yes.

2021-02-03 18:33:22 UTC  

I think they have a lot of faith

2021-02-03 18:33:57 UTC  

supposedly

2021-02-03 18:34:04 UTC  

Well I have said in my large message that I'm not a scientist.

2021-02-03 18:34:08 UTC  

can they?

2021-02-03 18:34:34 UTC  

but every time I research evolution I see holes

2021-02-03 18:35:11 UTC  

no but it does mean evolution isn't right either

2021-02-03 18:35:19 UTC  

But here's the thing

2021-02-03 18:35:26 UTC  

Evolution doesn't have to be fully fledged out to disprove God

2021-02-03 18:35:48 UTC  

never said they equal God I said they just make me doubt evolution

2021-02-03 18:36:43 UTC  

Yes, but even if evolution isn't entirely developed as a complete and total theory, but we have MILLIONS of papers and data points that, even if you disregard large scale evolution, still disprove Christian teachings.

2021-02-03 18:36:47 UTC  

millions of pieces of data that all either contradict one another or are not what they seem.

2021-02-03 18:37:51 UTC  

ok so a scientist can recreate it in a lab. there wasnt a scientist years ago fiddling with the DNA of ants or whatever. They "did it on their own"

2021-02-03 18:38:38 UTC  

alright so if they did it on their own like i said it would take longer than scientists say how old the earth is

2021-02-03 18:40:13 UTC  

I still see the words "may suggest" which sounds like speculation

2021-02-03 18:41:08 UTC  

evolution is a theory exactly. It's not proven.

2021-02-03 18:42:25 UTC  

alright still a theory is not the end result. Scientists still can't provide us with an end result.

2021-02-03 18:43:13 UTC  

no but they can't confirm it

2021-02-03 18:44:20 UTC  

maybe not but it does mean that it isn't fact

2021-02-03 18:46:47 UTC  

ok well you still won't admit to it being a fact. You are saying basically

2021-02-03 18:48:15 UTC  

i guess that's your opinion. I personally rely on the Bible as an eye witness testimony to creation and a young earth. We just have different opinions

2021-02-03 18:49:01 UTC  

This isn't opinion

2021-02-03 18:49:04 UTC  

This is willful ignorance

2021-02-03 18:49:16 UTC  

:)

2021-02-03 18:49:44 UTC  

so does mine i've provided it for you.
