That is correct.

As I'm fond of saying, science breeds hostility.

You're fond of saying a lot of things that are wrong.

My issue with you is as much a religious issue as it is scientific and philosophical.

Laugh all you want. Your embedded age nonsense is 100% nonsense and deserves to be mocked for the extra-Biblical nonsense it is

Then mock it.

Mocking something one doesn't understand is the humane human thing to do, isn't it?

I understand it fully. Why do you think I keep calling it extra-Biblical nonsense? Because it is!

And fish don't know they're wet, do they?

I am not confused at all in the fact that make the claim that the Earth's history is embedded and thus fake. You make it plain when you comment on it.

Show me ONE passage, ONE chapter and verse that supports embedded age.

2 Peter 3:5a For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old,

Psalm 68:33 To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo, he doth send out his voice, and that a mighty voice.


(Sorry. I can't count.)

You do so enjoy misquoting 2 Peter that I worry if you even care about the Bible at all, especially since I've shown repeatedly that you are misquoting it:

2 Peter 3:5 - For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water:
Even the link shows you misquote it.

And Psalm 68 shows that you still have a major problem with disconnecting allegory from literal interpretations.

Psalm 68: 31-35:
31 Princes shall come out of Egypt; Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands unto God.

32 Sing unto God, ye kingdoms of the earth; O sing praises unto the Lord; Selah:

33 To him that rideth upon the heavens of heavens, which were of old; lo, he doth send out his voice, and that a mighty voice.

34 Ascribe ye strength unto God: his excellency is over Israel, and his strength is in the clouds.

35 O God, thou art terrible out of thy holy places: the God of Israel is he that giveth strength and power unto his people. Blessed be God.

So in the end: not a single shred of evidence for back up your claim of embedded age.

Ya ... and I'm Genghis Khan.



Because I'm Genghis Khan?



Changing Embedded Age to YEC, Omphalos, and/or Last Thursday, then calling it "nonsense," is like replacing a functional light bulb with a burned out one and claiming the electricity doesn't work.

It's a distinction without a difference. You are a YEC but you don't want to associate with YECs because, like so many other American Literalists, want to be seen as someone special before the Lord, even if means taking the most extra-Biblical interpretations of the Bible possible.

At least you're not a believer in the 'Prosperity gospel', that I'll grant you as a bonus towards your character.

Would you make this into a sentence please?

"I am not confused at all in the fact that [you or I?] make the claim that the Earth's history is embedded and thus fake."

Oh wow, I did miss that, thank you.

You. It's you. Embedded age is fake age and history, no two ways about it.

Even though my pastor is a YEC?

I suppose you're going to deny this too, aren't you?

I have a deep amount of respect for YECs, but I can't bring myself to subscribe to their mindset. In fact, I'm so close to being a YEC that most people can't tell the difference.

At least you're not a believer in the 'Prosperity gospel', that I'll grant you as a bonus towards your character.

You got that right! :oldthumbsup:

That is absolutely the least surprising thing you could say.

Honestly, for lists of personal bugbears, it goes:

Prosperity Gospel
Then Scientology
Then YEC.
