A mortal blow to Young Earth creationism

Maybe you should call Harvard, Stanford, and Oxford universities and tell them they should stop doing radioactive isotope analysis because you have discovered it is all a scam.

Science is not a university or college.

Science refutes itself all the time, the dating method has flaws!

Science does not refute itself. A theory of science might be falsified, but that's all. Science is not inference or assumption of measurements. It is not measurements at all. It is not even observation at all nor the data it produces.

Science is a set of falsifiable theories. That's it. That's all.

All observations are subject to the problems of phenomenology.

Nothing refutes the creation explanation!

The Theory of Abiogenesis is mutually exclusive with the Theory of Creation. They refute each other. Neither are theories of science.

No it is not mutually exclusive, Dumbo Donny.

I studied General Relativity, dumbass.

Contextomy fallacy. Pay attention. I am not talking about the Theory of General Relativity. I don't believe you anyway. You don't even understand what this theory is.

Einstein didn't create the Theory of General Relativity?

Go sit down and shut the fuck up, Dumbo Donny.

I never said it's incompatible, Dumbass Donny.

The Bible, the Jesus part, is deliberately for uneducated people. All of it.

Four term fallacy.

Science is not a university or college.

That made no sense.

So you admit that many Republicans think Eve was made from Adam's rib and the universe created in 6 days.

Contextomy fallacy. Fixation. Bigotry.

There is not a concise understanding on how everything that is came to be, how do you suppose they can date it!

That makes no sense. If I'm digging in my garden and run across a piece of ancient pottery, do I have to know how it was made before I can figure out how old it is?

Yes it did, Dumbo Donny.

Religion is for dumb people. Has always been true.

So Kepler, Galileo, and Descartes, Galvani, and Volta are dumb people??

[ThatOwlWoman]

The third most important person in Christianity after Jesus and Paul (Saint Augustine) maintained that the Bible needs to be periodically reinterpreted in light of new knowledge.

The problem with fundies and other conservatives, sadly, is that they insist on everything being black-and-white, and in the infallibility of the Bible (and the Constitution). Change or reinterpretation is anathema.

No it is not mutually exclusive, Dumbo Donny.

The Theory of Abiogenesis states the life began on Earth through a series of unspecified random events.
The Theory of Creation states that life arrived on Earth through the action of some kind of intelligence.

They are mutually exclusive. One refutes the other.
