Jojo,
You strike me as having been seduced by the dark side of the Vort Collective and now willing to participate in some of your favorite Off-Topic discussions – including the generation of a few of your own. A good scrappy discussion can occasionally be a refreshing treat for many here, as long as everyone adheres to basic netiquette rules and ad-hominine attacks are kept out of the picture. BTW, why aren’t you prefixing the subject threads with “OT”? * * * I must confess the fact that I have not read the entire thread, so maybe I may have missed the fact that you have already touched on the following points: You give me the impression that you are much more sympathetic to a Creationist perspective - that geological formations like the Grand Canyon were created suddenly, such as from the accounts of “The Great Flood.” Please correct me if I am in error on such matters. What is your explanation for the scientific implications that come out of scientific measurements deduced from radioactive decay, such as carbon dating? I guess I’m trying to assess whether it is your belief that the world was created, in geological terms, very recently (i.e. Genesis) as compared to what is currently the accepted “scientific” POV, that the world coalesced approximately 4.5 billion years ago. BTW, I assume you are aware of the Creation Museum, located down in Kentucky: http://creationmuseum.org/ I’d love to visit the museum. I think it would be a real hoot. Of course, as you might expect, not everyone is in agreement with the conclusions that have been presented: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wzjjxi7f0Oc http://whatever.scalzi.com/2007/11/12/your-creation-museum-report/ Regards, Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionwork
