I agree that, where it may be fun to speculate on various hypothesis, it should be left to the theoretical. From viewing the video, however, if what they say is true, [again, as I speculate] it could be a possible theory to address things that seem to be "supernatural". Sightings of ghosts...

They aren't "set in their ways", . . . . . they use the scientific method to test a hypothesis. If it pointed to a global flood, the evidence would show that, . . . but it [geology] doesn't. History doesn't support the story either. :crazy

Well I am sure that Kent Hovind and sons mean well, but they look at the evidence as a way to make it fit with biblical accounts. . . . and that just isn't the case. I've seen these types of things, . . . including the Grand Canyon [of which would never have been formed by "receding flood...

Please share this evidence. The fact that the scientific community, as a whole, find overwhelming evidence that is completely incongruent with ANY "global flood" should be enough for anyone to see that a global flood myth, such as the story of Noah, is just that. . . . a story, not grounded...

Ummmmmm, . . . . . . Islam is not a pagan religion. :confused

I would say that most of the hyper conservative/pentacostal churches are against evolution. I know that Assemblies of God are.

"Does not nature itself teach you that for a man to wear long hair is degrading to him 1 Cor 11:14 RSV" How does nature say anything about length of hair. Also, if nature says anything, it is that length of hair be governed by what IS natural, which is hair that is uncut. So, it would be...

This account, also, was not recorded in any other contemporary narrative of the day, . . . which seems highly unlikely. Good post, Physicist. It is perfectly fine to see these "fantastical stories" as figurative/metaphoracal.

The Giza pyramids are dated older than that date [2347BC].

Uh, . . . most pagans don't believe in "Hell" and definitely reject the idea of the current christian view of such a place. What "pagans" are you listening to???

I believe that it is a huge leap of faith to believe that, to be honest. But I realize that it is a main doctrine of the christian faith, so I won't be convincing anyone.

Uh, . . . . . when that verse was written, . . . .there WERE no "66 books". A committee of men decided them. :shrug

I thought so but didn't want to answer such questions "with authority". Thanks, AAA. :wave

Doesn't a snowflake count as "order out of chaos"? I'm not sure, thus why I'm asking.

Isn't an over exageration basically the same as an untruth [close to being "a lie", if not openly so]? :confused
