Science, Creation & EvolutionAge of the EarthAineo. Hogcaller is absolutely correct. Your assertion that "scientists with credentials as good as those who disagree" is a red herring comment. Understand that credentials do not make any difference once one goes off the beaten path and they begin to postulate that which does not follow from known science. There are NO scientists whos work is seriously considered, who have presented a reasonable postulate to rationalize a YE perspective. The polonium halo's and all the rest of the myths are just so much 'hogwash' that there can be no support for them in the scientific community. I have seen some of the credentials of some of the CRI publishers, and although their credentials are fine, their hypothesis's are not. Remember Linus Pauling Ph.D? He was the first to sythesize antibodies, and he created the first synthetic plasma substitute? He won the nobel prize in chemistry in the 50's? Well, good ole Linus went on to write a book in the 70's entitled "Vitamin C and the common cold" which was hogwash. This is when he went off on megadoses of vit C to prevent the cold and cancer and all other ills. Scientists showed Linus how his theory did not hold up, and in fact megadoses of C had harmful effects if done long term. His credentials were impecable, unfortunately, his passion for his theory became almost "religious" in nature, and no amount of evidence would disuade him. He became known as a 'crack-pot' in science. Rightfully so at that point, since evidence meant nothing to him. Well, the men whos credentials you praise are as guilty as Linus. They may be well trained and brilliant, like Linus, but they are letting their 'religion' and their interpretation of it, obfuscate the overwhelming evidence of an old earth. Don't be fooled by it. The presups of poor exegesis have led these bright scientists to ignore sound scientific evidence. Now they are force fitting their beliefs into bad science, just like Pauling did. This is not healthy for our brotherhood of Christian soldiers. |
