Hey,Mr. 700 Club,how do you explain 400 billion year old moon rocks?

[Swede]

Just a question I'd have for a fundy on sunday.

[lolly]

1. Easy.

They're tricks left by G-d to test our faith.

Seriously. That's what they'll tell you.

Oh, and didn't you know that the whole Carbon-14 (and other dating methods) are all "junk science" that's been disproven anyway?

[Swede]

3. A "theory" I guess.

Red-shift astronomy don't cut it either,probably.

[Al-CIAda]

15. Are you kidding, they just admitted they were wrong about Gallileo. n/t

[bullimiami]

11. exactly. god created those 'apparently' 4billion year old moon rocks

5000 years ago with everything else in the universe. dummy.

[JHB]

2. I know some scientists who'd like that answer too...

...since most moon rocks are closer to merely 4 billion, and the estimated age of the universe is 10-15 billion years.

[PinkTiger]

4. That's funny.

Ha!
Here's a link on how to figure the age of the universe:

5. I don't hafta explain the moonrock because the "Moon" doesn't exist!

It's just a paper lantern that an angel pushes around the sky.

[johnaries]

16. That's right! That's why they had to fake the moon landing

and shoot it on a movie set. There was nothing there for them to land on.

[Gman]

6. They would answer that

the methods used for measuring the age of the rocks are very flawed. they will point out some obscure, out of work scientist that in some convoluted way "cast doubt" on the accuracy of the testing and also showed that the actual age is closer to 5K-6K years. They will fail to mention the "scientist" is also a minister.

[lolly]

18. Ah, yes.

The old "scientific minister" trick.

10 to 1 he's also a pedophile . . .

[LiberallyInclined]

7. 400 billion year-old moon rocks?

that's pretty old...wouldn't that place them from about 3 or 4 Big Bangs ago...?

[Crazy Guggenheim]

8. You mean about four billion.

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

20. One would think.

But hey, it's a soapbox.

[LiberalFighter]

9. How about why did God think creating a universe was necessary?

God could had created earth with just the moon, sun and a few planets. Instead we have stars, planets and galaxies that we can't see with the naked eye. There are zillions of stars.

[Ioo]

10. Magic

I say Magic?

[nolabels]

19. Yea, see they knew all these questions would come up in advance........

So they made them billions upon billions of rocks in advance just to answer that question and planted the question in your head just make sure it was asked.

A History of Freedom of Thought
by J. B. Bury (John Bagnell)

The legal processes employed by the Church in these persecutions exercised a corrupting influence on the criminal jurisprudence of the Continent. Lea, the historian of the Inquisition, observes: “Of all the curses which the Inquisition brought in its train, this perhaps was the greatest—­that, until the closing years of the eighteenth century, throughout the greater part of Europe, the inquisitorial process, as developed for the destruction of heresy, became the customary method of dealing with all who were under any accusation.”

The Inquisitors who, as Gibbon says, “defended nonsense by cruelties,” are often regarded as monsters. It may be said for them and for the kings who did their will that

<63> they were not a bit worse than the priests and monarchs of primitive ages who sacrificed human beings to their deities. The Greek king, Agamemnon, who immolated his daughter Iphigenia to obtain favourable winds from the gods, was perhaps a most affectionate father, and the seer who advised him to do so may have been a man of high integrity. They acted according to their beliefs. And so in the Middle Ages and afterwards men of kindly temper and the purest zeal for morality were absolutely devoid of mercy where heresy was suspected. Hatred of heresy was a sort of infectious germ, generated by the doctrine of exclusive salvation.

It has been observed that this dogma also injured the sense of truth. As man’s eternal fate was at stake, it seemed plainly legitimate or rather imperative to use any means to enforce the true belief—­even falsehood and imposture. There was no scruple about the invention of miracles or any fictions that were edifying. A disinterested appreciation of truth will not begin to prevail till the seventeenth century.

12. "I am more interested in the 'Rock of Ages' than I am in the age of rocks"

... the line from the movie, 'Inherit the Wind', was Matthew Brady's reply when questioned by Henry Drummond about the age of a rock... the rock being much older than the creation of the world (according to Brady's belief).

This movie is so very relevant today.

13. Don't you know??

Jesus made the moon out of green cheese. Did it with his own two hands, he did.

Silly.

14. whooooooooa slow down there, I'm sploding over here

I just recently found out about how the dinosaur deal works and now you're throwing moon rocks at me. You're not making this very easy. :-)

Did Noah take dinosaurs on the Ark?

Noah did not have to go out and find the animals. God brought each one. This probably included a young pair of each main type of dinosaur. Perhaps God just included the basic types of dinosaurs He first created; not every variety that had developed since Creation.

Young dinosaurs would be small and easier to care for and would use less food. It would have been foolish to fill up space on the Ark with the oldest, biggest adults.

See?? It would have been "foolish" to take big old dinosaurs.

Even the Guardian reported this. :-)

Gallup surveys have shown that about 45 per cent of Americans believe the Earth was created by God within the past 10,000 years. ...

The destruction of the dinosaurs is explained, not by a comet striking the Earth 65 million years ago, but by the Flood. This, the museum says, wiped out most of the dinosaurs still alive and created the Grand Canyon and huge layers of sedimentary rock seen around the world.

Some dinosaurs survived on Noah's ark. One poster explains that Noah would have chosen juvenile dinosaurs to save space. An illustration shows two green sauropods in the ark alongside more conventional elephants and lions.


I'm taking the family here next month. High time the kids learnt how this old earth was put together.

EVIDENCE HERE to the origins of the universe. :crazy:



After loading up on unique souvenirs, including replicas of a fossilized human finger, we drive a mile down Rte 205 to Dinosaur Valley State Park. Some of the people who watched Dr. Baugh's video are there, too. One little girl points to the tyrannosaurus rex statue and asks, "Mommy, why does he have such big teeth?" Mom replies, "So he could eat people."



Did you know that the figures are in and at least 98% (MAYBE MORE!!) of the folks here on earth are going to have some hot weather ahead?

Don't take my word for it, Mr. Rice has done the figuring and the totals are in... from HERE


Who's not going to fit on that trail?

"I have sized up the 98 percent, and I believe it's gonna go to 98 AND A HALF. One or two percent of the people outta this whole world are gonna be saved. Now, what's gonna happen to that 98 percent? Huh? They're going to Hell. I'm giving you scripture. I didn't write it." Remember, it's HOT HOT HOT.

17. "See?? It would have been "foolish" to take big old dinosaurs."

lmao.

Good post.


"Gallup surveys have shown that about 45 per cent of Americans believe the Earth was created by God within the past 10,000 years."


This is frightening. I wonder if this is assumed by proxy of their 'faith'. Do all Christians believe the earth is but 10,000 yrs. old? Nevermind carbon dating, how about friggin geology?

A nation of idiots.
