Genesis says there was light before the sun…thinks Dark is a thing in and of itself…thinks the sky is a “firmament” that has waters above and below it…thinks land plant life came before sea life…thinks birds came before land animals.

In what way does Genesis mirror the evolutionary order?

Prove it.

Creationism starts at a conclusion then cherry picks and misrepresents information to try make it seem like it might be valid. There is no evidence to suggest all life was created at the same time in their current form.

Fossil stratigraphy completely destroys creationism, no amount of hand waving will change that.

I admit, I don’t follow theoretical physics. But that to me is just more how and what questions. Not why.

Why is on the table. Everyone wants to know the answer, scientists are no different. Which is no guarantee the answer can be found.

He is wrong, science is interested in why, but that isn’t evolutionary theory job anymore than molecular orbital theory.

That is something totally different and has nothing to do with evolution.

And, so the far the answer is looking like, computation.

The Bible has the creation set billions of years ago? And mankind existing 100,000 years ago? Tell me more and where this is in the Bible.

To me, why is more of a philosophical/religious question.

You are completely correct. That is not what the theory of evolution is a about though. Would you expect molecular orbital theory to explain gravity?

What was the biblical timeline for the T-Rex?

Quantum gravity, possibly.

Dinosaurs were mentioned in the book of job, wish I could ask him. But he has long left us.

As I understand it whales evolved from a dog-like mammal. In the course of human history as far as I know, no human has observed a dog-like mammal in the wild giving birth to an offspring say with mutated stunted legs. Then observe it’s mutant offspring survive and then reproduce an offspring with the very same mutation, etc.

You asked for an explanation, not a proof. I gave an explanation.

Ah. So we are a young earth creationist. Hard to argue with someone who believes the earth is 6,000 years old, and Dinosaurs and Man walked together.

Does God not seem deceptive from this point of view? Created an inquisitive man, and a universe that shows all the evidence for it being billions of years old, the evidence for evolution, etc? Seems like a trickster to me.

Side note, I haven’t seen that website in forever. Someone else said it, but this really does take me back to the old days.

No we need proof! That’s what you keeping asking us for.

:laughing:Do you get my point tho, theory of evolution is describing the process of natural selection and the effect that has on populations over long periods of time.

Life is already present for ToE and makes no attempts to explain how it got there.
