You ask some good questions that you could easily find the answer to if you read some geology books and not just grade school level general science books. Any college level intro to Sedimentology and Stratigraphy will do. Some of the stuff you say is myths or misunderstandings of some basic geologic principles. ex. Each layer takes millions of years to form. Getting out and looking helps too. Thinking is good,but if it stops there then you will miss the things you didn't think about..
who cares i believe the earth is old, really old and theoris cant be dis-proven cause of there definition even if it is true its vs. how and not why also some of the stories in religions could be metaphors cause there is some far fetched things in every religion but it dosent mean its wrong maybe these stories are more morals to live by and if god is so merciful does matter what religion you are or if you believe in him something to think about
The flood is not a theory. It is presented as an historic event (remember the Bible is a telling of events).
Added that there's evidence of it happening (some animals found with fresh food and shit, look it up), it's pretty obvious that at some point the Earth was covered in water.
That screws up the geologic column theory thing.
I had never thought about this.
And adding to the other convo here:
I study Physics, and the Big Bang is the hugest argument in favor of a God. It just makes sense.
@Sisound these theoris dont prove or disprove god remember its how versus why i think the bible has some false things to but i do believe the earth wasnt made in in like 6 days and one rest but i think the stories are more morals than actually what happens and theres been many times the church use it to take the advantage of others although i believe no religion is completely wrong but some ppl get so sensitive to this but if anyone who see this can talk to me about it i wont bash you
Do you know how long it takes for a tree to be petrified? Is there anyway of telling the tree was petrified before the layers were up? Don't take offense I'm just asking.
@jamie14199 The "theory" in the bible of the flood is not a theory its a fact. I have never heard anyone ever call the flood a theory. Its just the plain truth. I agree with you swoozie. What the scientist say don't add up. They say this earth just started to form from nothing, but in order for anything to start it has to come from something. Nothing can only make nothing.

Sorry,but no one has ever proved anything in the Bible wrong,in fact there have been atheist archaeologists who have become Christians because of it's accuracies.
Archaeology doesn't prove christianity. In fact, objective history and archaeology show that most events in the bible didn't happen as the bible describes them.
It's a bit like Robin Hood and King Arthur. They are probably both based on real people and reala events but they have been distorted through retelling throughout the centuries.

the real problem in modern interpretation of the bible related to supposed inclusion of scientific observation, beyond vague biblical language, is a question of widescale classical knowledge, meaning, did the people who the bible was originally written for and whose stories it was collected from benefit or could even acknowledge and understand these scientific truths? are these insights relevant to the times that produced the bible? CONT
my felling is a sort of anachronism happened. modern readers know about things such as global wind patterns, under water mountains, dinosaurs, Pi, etc...and then interpret this information into the bible. in other words there is a change over time as to what these verses refer to. biblical understanding is not static, and interpretations, especially concerning science, has varied or changed over time.
@TheProf1988 zombies? talking donkeys? wtf have you been reading.... and we all knew santa clause and the toothfairy were fake no need to go thinking everythings a lie over it
This video is an example of Evangicals attacking science with out even a grade school understanding of the subject .This is why religion is SO HARMFULL .
He mentioned something to the effect that in a flood you might find such things as upside-down trees running through several layers of geologic strata.
wow that was good. Im favouriting this, I dunno if I missed it or not, but Adande, you should have related the tree thing to the flood that happened in Noah's time - and draw the link b/w the two. good job
4.5 billion year old Earth is the current accepting age of the Earth. What science knew back when you were in highschool was obviously not as much as we do know now and only proves that the progression of scientific knowledge has great momentum. Likewise, we will know so much more about things 20 years from now.
swoozie my man, i dont dissagree nor agree, first off i think ive seen all your videos and they are a blast, but, i dont understand why everyone is arguing about science vs. god or w/e. myself, im not a beleiver in god. just tooo far feched, so is alot of science but saying some dude in the sky did it doesnt sell it for me, and if you could change my mind, or anyone here, i would love to learn. just my two cents, big up to swoozie
@adamshornys I'm not going to start an argument, but God doesn't sound to far fetched to me. But the chances of everything coming from nothing (the big bang) are so microscopic, that it's nearly impossible. And to think that every single species on earth, and that has ever existed, came from a single cell. Not only this, but that the single cell appeared out of no where. Even with all our technology, no one has ever been able to spawn a living organism (or universe) out of nothing
what's really amazing about this earth is that our period of life, cenozoic, is basically, 'nothing', compared to the rest of the world. we think hundreds of years is alot, but compare that to the whole history earth is 4.5 billion years old. then remember that we are just one planet, and the sun is about 1.3 million times the size of earth and the earth is just in just OUR solar system. now, remmeber that there are BILLIONS of solar systems in galaxy, and 500+ billion of galaxys in our universe
This video is an example of Evangicals attacking science with out even a grade school understanding of the subject .This is why religion is SO HARMFULL .
@ChristTrip If you deny the crust of the earth spelling is the least of your worries . Sadly you guys have hit your head so many times on the ground while talking in tongues you dont realise how damaged you are . Evangelical = scientificly illiterate and proud !
@ChristTrip The bible itself is written on a sixth grade level which doesn't leave you room to criticise .Evangelicals are nearly 100% scientificly illiterate .The USA as a whole, is about 95% scientificly illiterate .As the saying goes ,if your nitpicking spelling you've lost the argument .
@flyingscience I'm not here to criticize, I'm here to represent truth, and what swoozie intentionally portrays, what he says makes sense, and the bible is the only thing that comes up in every situation. I;m not here to judge, and if i Was im sorry, but take a look at the bible it does resemble a lot, maybe more than you know
What are you talking about, religion first of all is not mutually exclusive in with science, thats one, and two religion is like anything, it can be used for good or evil, but its not inheirently bad. Every totalitarian, tyranical regime in the world tries to destroy religion, so that tells you something.
God may have said that being gay, a prostitue etc etc was wrong. But how the church treats gays in this day and age is horrific.
Instead of just seeing the narrow picture of it being "wrong". They need to look at what jesus did. He didnt condem them and cast them away. He went and spent his time with them because they needed him most.
Theories will always be taken out of context :)
ps. sam's optimus dance for leifje was awsome lol
I dont get the whole science vs religion debate. Why cant they coexisit peacefully. Why not say since science can't prove what created the earth. Why cant it be, ok god set in moition this big bang. Created the first organism which then evolved into in the first sign of life, then into apes then humans blah blah blah.
But that will never happen, and theories will always be taken out of context. Which is true in religion too.
They're going to say what they want to argue thier point of view. (Which may also be why the bible isn't complete) There where many other people who wrote gospels(aka judice) that the church left out, and still has safely hidden in their basement.
I think of the bible as just another theory. Still hasn't been proven or disproven. And the fact that this story is 100% accurate and have stayed the same over 2030+ yrs is kinda hard to believe.
Well i finally got around to watching all your vid blogs i missed. And i got to say your right about the geologic colum theory being bogus. But thats why theories are made to prove or disprove it. The fact that its still being used in schools is sad. But that has to do with the education system/curriculum.
Kinda like if look at a canadian history book on us history...vs a us history book, they'll be very very different. because everyone who makes those books has a agenda.
Rif1 - look at any of my fossil videos , I can tell you that the geologic column is as real as the Earths crust .Read science sources to understand science .
The rates of deposition vary through time. Some times deposition is rapid, for example landslides floods (no... not Noah's flood!!!) etc. and this can bury trees causing them to pass through multiple rock layers.
From where exactly did you get the info on 'trees that pass through multiple layers'? I'd like to have a look.
Yellowstone national park. Trees without bark, branches or roots, proposed to have been buried while growing by volcanic ash. There are layers of this so there have to have been over 40 forest grow followed by eruptions. Some of the trees are horizontal, all the horizontal trees are facing the same direction in any particular layer (unlike in a real forest with trees falling over).
Mt St Helens' eruption caused localized flooding and washed thousands of trees into local lakes. Spirit Lake, for example, had thousands of trees stripped of their bark and branches, many of which were floating upright, all pointing in the direction of water flow. Sounds a lot like Yellowstone, right? This is something that was actually *observed* (i.e. science) rather than something someone imagined (i.e. not science until it's tested).
@swoozie06 hey i hope you see this a theory is a hypothesis that has been added on to the point to were ppl take it as common fact so theres enough evidence for this hypothesis to be true but it really dosent matter we are here now maybe this is the reason how but not why :D but im gonna try to avoid your religion videos but i love your vblogs
ive posted a lot of comments but i gotta ask be4 i forget; my friend wants to know if u play shooters like Socom online or not. could you respond plz, thx.
Swoozie, I have watched all your videos and some have really helped me put some things in perspective and occasionaly I have used your tips to help others. It would be really amazing if you did a vlog more often though. But, at all costs thanks for doing this I appreciate your perspective on a lot of things and want you to share more. Oh, and a shoutout is appreciated. :)
hey since you read the Bible I have something to bring across to you.
In Genesis 2:3 or somewhere around there, It tells that on the first day god created light and there was light, the moon, the sun, and the stars where not created until the 4th day so there was three days of light without a sun.
I just found this out a day ago and i thought that i would bring this across to you and any of your fans that read the Bible. Its something that i really never noticed and found that was amazing.
"Who said erosion marks are absent ?You can tour the Grand Canyon millions have "
I was just about too say this, I was there on sunday actually and you can see the marks with your own two eyes.
Your bible reference isn't too realiable either swooz, just because the bible talks about these people and there "family tree", doesn't make it fact. You have too realise that the book that your drawn too for answers here is the writing of a group of people, mostly based off of what one guy toldthem
true most of the science stuff is theory and im geussing these guys have to prove that there theory works, god vs science and i love both but god wins it for me in how the earth was made i dont believe the big band theory
Dizzle is back! Here is also something to think about:
If the majority of theories/philosophies placed under the category of science were designed to possibly take God out of the picture then we might assume that Science is against God; however w/ all due respect, if some of the most popular of these theories & philosophies can't be accurately tested, demonstrated or examined (science by definition) then it should start to become more evident that REAL science isn't in full opposition with God
... the individuals who put those theories in the science category to begin with (labeling them science or fact) are whos intentions might be questionable ;).
Denying the geologic column is like denying the crust of the Earth .Its there its documented (by creationists )you can see it and climb on it .Look at my fossil hunting videos .
great video great facts I like it when the word of God proves more acurate then the theories that science has developed that people have been taught to adapt as the solid truth. lol what is the world coming to.. keep it up
There is no such thing as a geologic column theory , your mixing up terms and concepts .Theory does not mean guess or hunch .Your a YEC that has poor understanding of science concepts (what a shock).
What makes you think I didn't do any research? I mean, had the pretty picture and everything :)
But on a less comical note flyingscience... I don't see where I mentioned anything about reefs being transported by floods. I do recall saying petrified trees were found upside down going through multiple rock layers that each claim to be millions of years apart. And even if we want to ignore that how does one "scientifically" explain there being no erosion marks between each rock layer?
I'm a big fan of science but at the end of the day, by definition, the geologic column isn't science.
Correct me if I'm wrong but, I bring attention to things that disprove the g.column and because what I present doesn't echo what you perceive- then I have poor understanding of science concepts?
I brought up the reefs as old Earth evidence .Look up polystrate trees in a google search .The layers are NOT millions of years , but from multiple floods.
Who said erosion marks are absent ?You can tour the Grand Canyon millions have .You can see Cambrian through the age of the Dinosaurs .You can then see the top of the column 200 miles away .
Most of the geologic column was documented prior to Darwin by creationists .My city rests on millions of layers of fossilized reefs .Grown in place not transported by flood .
Do some research about the subject before you attack it . Google whole geologic period .You said fluff for 10 minutes your video should have been 2 minutes long .
idk i havnt read the bible in a while.. but im pretty sure that it says some were that god made the earth and then there was a period of time were the earth ddnt have a form and it was in some kina void... any way the reason im bringing this up is because its not really specific as to how much time has past, so thats what my pastor said wen i asked about dinosaurs and the collum .. get bak at me swooz lemme know yo thoughts kk duce
The earth was w/o form and void on day 1 leading up to the creation of day and night which was also on day 1. They say how much time passes if you take a peek. ^_^ Earth, Heaven, water animals, birds, beasts, sun, moon, man, woman all in 6 days and in what order. Which might suggest Dinosaurs roaming the earth at that time because they did mention giants in Gen 6:4
Like someone said below me, its a stone when it becomes petrified, its not really hard for a rock to last thousands if not millions of years. I guess it was a good try but far from scientific...
All who mentioned that once petrified it's stone are right. However the petrifaction process occurs underground, not when part of the tree is in the ground and part of it is above. With that being the case, if you have a tree that turns to stone while underground & going through solid rock layers is where the g.colum is "sketchy". & the idea that earthquakes could have cause it would then mean we could never accurately tell the age of a fossil seeing as to how those 'might' shift too...
... mainly because we date the fossils we find in the ground by which rock layer they are found in according to the g.column; you'd have one dinosaur with a head in the layer thats 10 million years old and the tail of the same dino in the rock layer thats 50 million years old right?
I was right about to bring up the petrified tree comment if you hadn't gotten to it. I'm glad to see you using the bible, it's refreshing to see that. So I'm assuming the obvious conclusion is you're a christian???
And Debate is super special awesome. Though I don't consider the age of the earth a debatable subject. It's just that I feel that it is wrong when a person broadcast WRONG information implying to others that they should "think." The geologic time scale hasn't been "proven wrong." And if you did tell me the name of the wrong science book, I would gladly try to find it and see for it myself.
and if you are going to do a "educational video," you should list some sources for future references.
"A theory signifies an opinion no matter what term you put before it- to start passing it along as fact w/o proper evidence is where flags up go."
This is false though. A scientific theory isn't your everyday 'theory.' Scientific theories can only be established based off of facts and evidences. And the age of the earth isn't just based off the of the geologic column. There are multiple evidences and ways for instance, radio metric dating for example.
first i'd just like to point out that a petrified tree...isnt a tree...its rock, and it could have been moved up through layers by earthquakes and other geologic movements of the like...that just kinda erked me :p
and also the statement about the moon...just because it moving now, doesnt mean it was millions on years ago. It could have just floated by and go caught in the grav pull
dont take this the wrong way swooz, ive seen all ur vids and i love these ones especially, just speakin my piece
The Earth is 4.5 - 4.7 billion years old, the universe is approx 13 billion years old, give or take a million or so.
I don`t take the bible as Literal historical truth, the Romans were writing about everything, not a mention of jesus and all these suposed miracles, and they got documented years after jesus`s death. (if there was such a person and he wasn`t made up later on to be wrote about like comrade Ogilvy in George Orwell`s 1984)
Now about the text book comment. It's pretty well established that the earth is about 4.5 billion years old. You said the school science book read was about 1-100mil. Now can you show me the specific book? It's most likely that you "can't remember." If it is true, it's obviously outdated.
"When I was younger, when I read something in a text book, I didn't question it."
That statement still stands, but it isn't exactly a "text" book.
Correct you are catz; earth being X million/billion years old is very established and largly due to the geologic column. If my cousin still has his book from last year I could show you where it says that but I doubt it would change much in our convo.
And you are correct my man- like I said 'when I was younger I didn't question things I read' or things being fed to me- it wasn't until I got out of high school where I started to actually develop a deeper thirst for this stuff.
The first questions I had was toward what I was being fed in the religion department. On the topic of me not understanding what I'm talking about in science... the definition I mentioned in the video; is that not an accurate one? A theory signifies an opinion no matter what term you put before it- to start passing it along as fact w/o proper evidence is where flags up go.
You know you're my ace Catz. I'm not trying to start any massive debates- just want to entertain some independent thinking.
Swoozie. I have watched your videos from the beginning and I still enjoy them. The thing is, you don't know what you are talking about in terms of science. Not saying I'm a scientist, but there are very basic things you have demonstrated that you don't understand. For example, the fact that you don't understand what a "scientific theory" is. I've talked to you about this specifically and it seems that you haven't even tried to learn what it means.
I dont want to be cocky but i'm pretty sure this is the moon getting closer to the earth. Because the earth attraction getting bigger each year .... i'll search for it or just respond here kthx
Lol, evidence in any court where there are human beings involved can always be wrong or disproven. Not even sure if we're meant to know how things really went down. Even if we did know, what satisfaction would that bring us? I believe you're right Adande, people need to make sure that such statements in Science books are still theory....no matter what partial evidence we may have gathered, knowing a quarter of the truth or half the truth isn't and never will be knowing the truth.
don't believe that everything you're told as a child is fact. this includes the validity of religion and the existance of jesus and/or god as well as a lot of things in text books as well as the bible.

Science, however, is derived from reality.

There is no such thing as the supernatural. If something exists, it is natural by definition. The supernatural is synonymous with non-existance.
If you still carry these delusions I suggest you look up the Foundational Falsehoods of Creationism series by user AronRa.
For a series of videos on critical thinking when it comes to the supernatural, then user QualiaSoup is an absolute must.

4.5 billion year old Earth is the current accepting age of the Earth. What science knew back when you were in highschool was obviously not as much as we do know now and only proves that the progression of scientific knowledge has great momentum. Likewise, we will know so much more about things 20 years from now.

@adamshornys I'm not going to start an argument, but God doesn't sound to far fetched to me. But the chances of everything coming from nothing (the big bang) are so microscopic, that it's nearly impossible. And to think that every single species on earth, and that has ever existed, came from a single cell. Not only this, but that the single cell appeared out of no where. Even with all our technology, no one has ever been able to spawn a living organism (or universe) out of nothing

God may have said that being gay, a prostitue etc etc was wrong. But how the church treats gays in this day and age is horrific.
Instead of just seeing the narrow picture of it being "wrong". They need to look at what jesus did. He didnt condem them and cast them away. He went and spent his time with them because they needed him most.
Theories will always be taken out of context :)

I dont get the whole science vs religion debate. Why cant they coexisit peacefully. Why not say since science can't prove what created the earth. Why cant it be, ok god set in moition this big bang. Created the first organism which then evolved into in the first sign of life, then into apes then humans blah blah blah.
But that will never happen, and theories will always be taken out of context. Which is true in religion too.
RiF1 3 years ago
They're going to say what they want to argue thier point of view. (Which may also be why the bible isn't complete) There where many other people who wrote gospels(aka judice) that the church left out, and still has safely hidden in their basement.
I think of the bible as just another theory. Still hasn't been proven or disproven. And the fact that this story is 100% accurate and have stayed the same over 2030+ yrs is kinda hard to believe.
RiF1 3 years ago
Well i finally got around to watching all your vid blogs i missed. And i got to say your right about the geologic colum theory being bogus. But thats why theories are made to prove or disprove it. The fact that its still being used in schools is sad. But that has to do with the education system/curriculum.
Kinda like if look at a canadian history book on us history...vs a us history book, they'll be very very different. because everyone who makes those books has a agenda.

trees that go through multiple rock layers... theory?
swoozie06 3 years ago 5
The rates of deposition vary through time. Some times deposition is rapid, for example landslides floods (no... not Noah's flood!!!) etc. and this can bury trees causing them to pass through multiple rock layers.
From where exactly did you get the info on 'trees that pass through multiple layers'? I'd like to have a look.
Flemingstorm 3 years ago
Yellowstone national park. Trees without bark, branches or roots, proposed to have been buried while growing by volcanic ash. There are layers of this so there have to have been over 40 forest grow followed by eruptions. Some of the trees are horizontal, all the horizontal trees are facing the same direction in any particular layer (unlike in a real forest with trees falling over).
Stonecutter82 2 years ago
Mt St Helens' eruption caused localized flooding and washed thousands of trees into local lakes. Spirit Lake, for example, had thousands of trees stripped of their bark and branches, many of which were floating upright, all pointing in the direction of water flow. Sounds a lot like Yellowstone, right? This is something that was actually *observed* (i.e. science) rather than something someone imagined (i.e. not science until it's tested).

@swoozie06 hey i hope you see this a theory is a hypothesis that has been added on to the point to were ppl take it as common fact so theres enough evidence for this hypothesis to be true but it really dosent matter we are here now maybe this is the reason how but not why :D but im gonna try to avoid your religion videos but i love your vblogs

In Genesis 2:3 or somewhere around there, It tells that on the first day god created light and there was light, the moon, the sun, and the stars where not created until the 4th day so there was three days of light without a sun.
I just found this out a day ago and i thought that i would bring this across to you and any of your fans that read the Bible. Its something that i really never noticed and found that was amazing.

Dizzle is back! Here is also something to think about:
If the majority of theories/philosophies placed under the category of science were designed to possibly take God out of the picture then we might assume that Science is against God; however w/ all due respect, if some of the most popular of these theories & philosophies can't be accurately tested, demonstrated or examined (science by definition) then it should start to become more evident that REAL science isn't in full opposition with God

What makes you think I didn't do any research? I mean, had the pretty picture and everything :)
But on a less comical note flyingscience... I don't see where I mentioned anything about reefs being transported by floods. I do recall saying petrified trees were found upside down going through multiple rock layers that each claim to be millions of years apart. And even if we want to ignore that how does one "scientifically" explain there being no erosion marks between each rock layer?
swoozie06 3 years ago
I'm a big fan of science but at the end of the day, by definition, the geologic column isn't science.
Correct me if I'm wrong but, I bring attention to things that disprove the g.column and because what I present doesn't echo what you perceive- then I have poor understanding of science concepts?

The earth was w/o form and void on day 1 leading up to the creation of day and night which was also on day 1. They say how much time passes if you take a peek. ^_^ Earth, Heaven, water animals, birds, beasts, sun, moon, man, woman all in 6 days and in what order. Which might suggest Dinosaurs roaming the earth at that time because they did mention giants in Gen 6:4

Like someone said below me, its a stone when it becomes petrified, its not really hard for a rock to last thousands if not millions of years. I guess it was a good try but far from scientific...
Wallace1222 3 years ago
All who mentioned that once petrified it's stone are right. However the petrifaction process occurs underground, not when part of the tree is in the ground and part of it is above. With that being the case, if you have a tree that turns to stone while underground & going through solid rock layers is where the g.colum is "sketchy". & the idea that earthquakes could have cause it would then mean we could never accurately tell the age of a fossil seeing as to how those 'might' shift too...
swoozie06 3 years ago
... mainly because we date the fossils we find in the ground by which rock layer they are found in according to the g.column; you'd have one dinosaur with a head in the layer thats 10 million years old and the tail of the same dino in the rock layer thats 50 million years old right?

And Debate is super special awesome. Though I don't consider the age of the earth a debatable subject. It's just that I feel that it is wrong when a person broadcast WRONG information implying to others that they should "think." The geologic time scale hasn't been "proven wrong." And if you did tell me the name of the wrong science book, I would gladly try to find it and see for it myself.
and if you are going to do a "educational video," you should list some sources for future references.

swoozie06 3 years ago
"A theory signifies an opinion no matter what term you put before it- to start passing it along as fact w/o proper evidence is where flags up go."
This is false though. A scientific theory isn't your everyday 'theory.' Scientific theories can only be established based off of facts and evidences. And the age of the earth isn't just based off the of the geologic column. There are multiple evidences and ways for instance, radio metric dating for example.

Now about the text book comment. It's pretty well established that the earth is about 4.5 billion years old. You said the school science book read was about 1-100mil. Now can you show me the specific book? It's most likely that you "can't remember." If it is true, it's obviously outdated.
"When I was younger, when I read something in a text book, I didn't question it."
That statement still stands, but it isn't exactly a "text" book.
CatzDaLegit 3 years ago
Correct you are catz; earth being X million/billion years old is very established and largly due to the geologic column. If my cousin still has his book from last year I could show you where it says that but I doubt it would change much in our convo.
And you are correct my man- like I said 'when I was younger I didn't question things I read' or things being fed to me- it wasn't until I got out of high school where I started to actually develop a deeper thirst for this stuff.
swoozie06 3 years ago
The first questions I had was toward what I was being fed in the religion department. On the topic of me not understanding what I'm talking about in science... the definition I mentioned in the video; is that not an accurate one? A theory signifies an opinion no matter what term you put before it- to start passing it along as fact w/o proper evidence is where flags up go.
You know you're my ace Catz. I'm not trying to start any massive debates- just want to entertain some independent thinking.
swoozie06 3 years ago
Swoozie. I have watched your videos from the beginning and I still enjoy them. The thing is, you don't know what you are talking about in terms of science. Not saying I'm a scientist, but there are very basic things you have demonstrated that you don't understand. For example, the fact that you don't understand what a "scientific theory" is. I've talked to you about this specifically and it seems that you haven't even tried to learn what it means.
