I get emails in my Verizon account that read "There are four people on Just Say Hi that want to meet you" then when I get here, no one wants to meet me. This happens alot. ?? There are no new mutual matches or anything? what's up with this??

For the sake of creationists around the world, who would like to insist on a verbatim biblical interpretation of the world. The following is why this cannot possibly be the case.

Let’s forget about earthy biological evolution for a moment, and take a look at the universe as a whole.

It says in the Bible that on the first day God created the Heavens and the earth.

Ok, we look out into the universe what do we see? We see galaxies that are clearly million of light-years away from us. There can be no question concerning their distance for the simple reason that in order for them to be close they would need to be ultra miniature in size. Since this would violate every law of physics known to man we can dismiss it. Either the galaxies really are millions of years away from us, or all of physics is wrong,…

OR we might want to imagine that God is a deceitful deity and created the world in such a was as to deceive us. However most people don’t want to believe that God is deceitful so we can rule out the last idea.

Clearly all of physics can’t be wrong or our nuclear generators and submarines wouldn’t be working, not to mention all our other technological toys. Therefore we have no choice but to conclude that the universe itself is at least millions of years old, or older. Therefore the universe itself certainly could not have been created a mere 6,000 years ago. So this is well-established by simple observations that any reasonable person can clearly follow.

Now what about the earth itself?

Well, again, as we observe the universe around us we see stars of all stages of development. Thanks to physics, spectroscopy, accelerator laboratories, and our own nuclear technological developments we have learned a great deal about how stars are born, grow old, and die. This process is understood in amazing detail that I can only wish I had the time to properly convey here. The bottom line is that our technology would not work if our physics was wrong. So it can’t be wrong.

In any case, we see stars form, with planetary systems. We have observed, first hand, that many newly born stars are encircled by large clouds of dust and debris that forms a disk and finally accumulated into planets. We have seen this by observing a large number of star systems in various stages of development.

We also have precise mathematical laws of gravity and other physics that describe this process in amazing detail to the point where we can even put these models into computer simulations and watch as they do the same thing we observe to be happening in the universe. Clear evidence that we have these laws of physics down pretty well.

So where does all this lead?

Well, it leads to the reasonable conclusion that our earth was formed in the same way that all the other planets in the universe are formed. And that process clearly takes hundreds of thousands of years just to form the planets, and then millions of years beyond that to produce the geological features that we observe on our planet to day (forget about any biology!).

In short, the universe is telling us that the earth could not possibly have been formed in 6 earth days. Thus the universe grossly disagrees with religious doctrines that claim that the earth was formed in 6 days, or that it is only a mere 6,000 years old today. The earth must necessarily be millions of years old even if it was a dead planet with no life at all.

So there we go.

In order for the assertions of Creationists to be correct concerning the earth’s age, all of physics, astronomy, spectroscopy and many other scientific fields would need to be wrong

And we haven’t even come to any discussion about biology yet.

To believe the Creationist’s literal biblical account of Creation we must denounce all of physics and observational astronomy. There’s simply not other reasonable choice.

The only other possible explanation would be a deceptive God. A God that really did create all of this in 6 earth days, but then made it appear and work as though it had taken millions of years to come to be.

That’s it. The only two choices for a verbatim interpretation of the Bible.

1. All of physics and science if wrong and our nuclear power plants and submarines don’t really work.
2. God really did create the world in 6 days, but he also is a deceptive God and made it appear to violate his inspire book.

In short, the biblical account does not match reality. Either the Bible is a lie, or Reality is a lie. Take your choice,…

OR,…

Don’t take the Bible so damn literally in the first place.

But that’s a whole differnet can of worms.

If I was in charge of my own evolution, I would have definitely kept the wings.

This whole retarded argument is like watching kids argue on the playground. Evolution has no solid case and anyone willing to look at the facts of DNA would have to come to that conclusion. On the other hand, I don't exspect anyone who hasn't experienced what God is for themselves to understand. That's Gods job.

Why aren't we seeing mixes of DNA right now and intermitant species and different levels of man. Because there isn't any and never will be.

My faith has had oodles of physically manifested and supernatural evidence, but all you weazers can say and ever have said is "good for you, if it works for you". Du-uh, a miracle slaps you in the face and you STILL deny it, how stupid can a smart man be. Cop outs.

I see Abra is still fighting himself. THEY buggin you Abra?

I think the next theory will be that we are products of aliens.
whether thats cloning, another race or whatever, that is my prediction of the next most popular theory.

did I fall into a time warp that leads to the dark ages?

cuz im chubby :(

anyone ever go outside to get the papers on sunday, and the Jehovas witnesses are right there

The question I want answered is
"who is writing the 'Mein Kampf' of Bush?"
I tend to stay away from this 9/11 topic because there just no winning.
Its not the govt. its not the bush admin.
"all roads lead to rome" applies here..

Read the story of alberto rivera; x-Jesuit priest under extreme oath induction (died/murdered depending on what you believe in 1997)
its completely unrelated to the 9/11 events but after you read it, and if you believe it, you will see that all roads indeed lead to rome.

It is actually in the Satanic Bible. Do what you wish without harming others. Harming others means leaving the country or jail. How could I enjoy my carnal desires if I am always on the run? It's detremental to my whole philosophy to hurt someone.

What I meant is that
despite all the evidence
to the contrary, that
there was NOT a government
conspiracy, people still
refuse the believe the
data and go with whatever
pet conspiracy theory
suits their fancy.

It all stems from the
stupid single or multiple
bullet conspiracy theories.

It's like why can't
these conspiracy theorists
accept the possibility that
Oswald was acting alone?

i am a born again believer in Jesus Christ. it is against my relationship to have a religion.

and...are you a good lord or an evil lord??

I saw an interesting article on the net about 911 and they are speaking that the government was involved or let it happen anyone have any thoughts on this topic?

If you're an atheist, why do you care so much about raptures and why do you read the bible....and...do you use God's name in vain..and Jesus'..and do you celebrate Christmas or have Easter dinner...I'll bet you'd be real pi**ed if you didn't holiday pay for those Christian Holidays....

Is that an American Robin
or a European Robin?
