That's what I love about JWD, everyone is still here when I get back! How does everyone make a living?
But if you contend that God made the earth only 6,000 years ago, how do you account for either the fossil or the rocks being millions of years old?
Mary,
Just so you'll know, I have never "contended" that the earth is 6000 years old. I allow for a "old" earth and young creation. What I do contend, is it that we cannot know for a certainty many things. Gap Theory is a fundamental bible theory that attempts to make that fit. I personally believe that some rocks may be "billions" of years old. But billions of years from whose point of view? God, who is timeless and can most certainly manipulate time, would certainly have a different frame of reference than us three dimensional creatures wouldn't he? I also believe that other rocks that are believed by secularists to be millions of years old probably aren't. Lots of mysteries out there.
So, getting back the Ark. How would a person know if was true or not? At one time I believed that the earth was warming due to fossil fuels because that was the data that I was exposed to in my construction of reality. It made sense to me that greenhouse gasses trapped the suns rays and warmed the earth.
Now, there are 10, 000 scientists saying that science was manipulated in the global warming hoax. Whom should I believe?
Here's a trick question for everyone. How do you know what is true? Warning: The answer may not be what you think. Any takers?
