    as individual years, yet....? ........that polar area is so cold that they NEVER have thaws that would create such freeze-thaw layers. So what is their rebuttal to that scientific fact? (Obviously, this YEC argument is an effort to deny an earth age older than 6,000+ years.) [Yes, I know...

    geologists who explore...? .......for oil? It seems like a geologist having a correct understanding of earth history and unencumbered by wrong ideas like a 4.7 billion year old earth and uniformitarism would have a TREMENDOUS ADVANTAGE. Has this been the case...

    Why do so many people ignore the question (as posted in R&S) and instead

    rant on tangents of their own? Is it simply a desire to use R&S to promote their personal views *OR* do most participants simply have atrocious reading comprehension skills (or both)? =================================================================== Some people will tend to reply with a...

    Is the poster's rant correct: "Conservative minds are so diluted that they'll believe

    anything their told"? Is "dilution" of minds a major problem in our time? (And does this "dilution" lead to believing anything THEY ARE TOLD or THEIR TOLD? I wonder because I find it fascinating that those who are the first to deplore the ignorance of others seem so often to be prone to...

    How do those who deny that the Trinity is discussed in the Bible understand Matthew

    28:19's explicit statement? “baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost” (Matthew 28:19). ==================================== Yes: "name" is in the singular. (Not sure if you are making that point facetiously but thanks.)

    votes? Yes, some questions involve very subjective topics and therefore the answers are equally subjective (and/or downright hostile). But I find it amazing that even the most objective types of information-seeking questions lead to insightful and factually-correct answers which nevertheless...

    Do lame Bible criticisms like "Pi<>3" distract from valid issues like Luke's...

    ...Quirinius Census & apparent.....? .....contradictions such as 1 Kings 7.26 & 2 Chronicles 4:5 concerning the volume of the molten sea in Solomon's temple (2000 baths vs. 3000 baths)? (Just to cite a few examples.) Wouldn't the typical cut-and-paste "Bible error lists" be taken more...

    Is the allegedly Creationist-oriented ScienceAgainstEvolution.org website a Poe prank?

    Example from http://scienceagainstevolution.org/v10i10f.htm : "We know that carbon 14 dating is totally irrelevant to the theory of evolution. Knowledgeable evolutionists don’t claim that carbon 14 dating has anything to do with the theory of evolution. Ignorant evolutionists, however, think...
