Dear noguru,
I do have friends who believe me. Plus many people around the world believe me enough to Twitter back to me with their email address and offers to follow me. I go on Twitter. Not just here all the time.
God Restore Your Compassion And Love,
Michael

He's still judging
1. believing in evolution does not indicate how old you believe the universe-earth is.
2. the bible does not clearly state that the earth is ~7,000 years old, that is merely one (very literal) interpretation of the text
3. it really doesn't matter how old you feel the earth is (or how life changed), concerning one's salvation, a subject that is FAR more important
When someone surrounds them self with "Yes" people, should they then be surprised that they have not progressed and not gotten a more accurate understanding of reality?

To my mind Michael, Stripe is rarely right about anything, but then I'm not a Christian fundamentalist creationist.
I don't know what to tell you alwight. I guess I don't know much about Stripe except that he seems right very often. He is very strong in resolve and a zealous Christian, which I am both also. We just reflect a different image in the mirror. He is one of my cohorts on this Creation thread. I don't know of anyone he's gotten banned. I care a lot for him.
Tons Of Love To You, Al!!
Michael
You're really :first:
All radioactive isotopes have a half-life. Each has a different one ranging from a few thousand to over a billion years. C-14 has never been used to try and date anything over 100,000 years old because it's ~5700 year half life means that it totally breaks down in about 70,000 years. It is 99% reliable for things younger than that. The other isotopes you mentioned have much longer half-lives, and we can confirm their effectiveness because of the sediment layers the objects they are commonly used to date are found in. Scientists knew that Earth was at least several million years old long before radiometric dating because of the very different fossils and geological composition of the sediment layers. Radiometric dating techniques just confirmed this, and all methods that can be used on a quality sample will always agree on an approximate age.
An example of how we can know that different animals lived during different periods of time (and that they got more complex along the way) are the fossils found in the Grand Canyon. Only trilobites, coral, and other small primitive creatures can be found there. No dinosaurs, no mammoths, no humans, nothing bigger than very small fish. This fits in perfectly with the known age of the canyon's formation. If this happened only a few thousand years ago then all kinds of fossils would be found there. But they're not

You seem to care a lot for everyone, I really don't know how you do it.

It's a facade. He is a two face liar.
"Do me a favor, Hippy, and stay off my side."
Dear noguru,
It's not a facade. I've already told you that I love all of my brethren, female and male, as they are descended from Noah and his wife, just like me. I do have my limitations though, like many have WAYS that I don't like. So, don't worry. You don't know the real me at all. And you haven't spent much time to find out regardless. If God loves everyone, why shouldn't I? Even though I falter compared to Him by far, I still try to listen to my heart about others.
Michael
You don't know what love is. I do not trust your concept of love. Your love is a kind of poison that cannot survive in the light. Therefore it is fraudulent.
I know you from the things you post on this site. If you do not mean them to be descriptive of your character then why do you post them?
