How do you study creation?

[forest51690]

@MrWagman11, Creationism is a means to satisfy the scientific minds of those who believe the Bible, just like abiogenesis and evolution is a means to satisfy the minds of atheists. Christians want to reconcile scientific evidence with the Bible, and atheists want to reconcile the wonderful created world with their belief that there is no God. So Creation seeks to explain evidence (geological, genetic, etc) so that it can fit within the Bible's framework. Does that make sense?

[MrWagman11]

@forest51690 It's extremely hard to comprehend how anyone with a scientific mind, or any kind of mind, can believe the Bible is true and accurate.

[forest51690]

@MrWagman11, well I have a logical mind, and I believe the Bible is accurate. If you would like to call me illogical, then you would first have to show how my beliefs are inconsistent with either themselves or with reality. We can do that via messages if you want.

Actually they found Noah's Ark on Mount Judi (15 miles from Mount Ararat) which sense because the Bible says "mountains of Ararat"

[forest51690]

@SnowBunnieSqueakyToy, that's true (see the posted verses). But it also says that the tops of the mountains became visible three hebrew months after that. I take it to mean "all of the mountains around the mountain the ark landed on," but it may mean "all of the mountains that are around the mountains of Ararat." But the question is, are there other visible mountains? If not, then how would they know when they became visible? Special revelation? It is at least a plausible explanation.

[candoyja]

Scientists follow proven methods that are logical and is based on evidence. Scientists know 40 days of nonstop raining will not add up to fill the world completely. Noah's ark thing happened less than 20,000 years ago. Do you really think Himalaya and other mountain ranges were much much shorter at that time??? Maybe you would think oceans were much smaller like your backyard swimming pool. You are illogical and irrational.

[ViDeOfee1994]

@candoyja Not if you would flat out the earth. I believe that the mountains were formed toward the end of the flood, when the water came off the higher places (forming continents) and gathering in the lower places (forming oceans). The water probably came from a layer of water around the earth, which is not there anymore, and a layer of water below the surface of the earth, which cracked open and released the water (you can still find evidence for that).

hey buddy news for you NOAHS Ark is real why else do we find dinosaur bones ynder layers of MUD cause they were drowned and covered up i support you 100% Mateus I hope i spelt that right

[karnoch]

Hey good vid you point out some valid logical fails made by this so-called geologist. There are seashells on top of Everest, maybe he didn't know that. For an excellent theory regarding the flood mechanism, continental shift, and mountain formation, read Walt Brown's hydroplate theory.

[SnowBunnieSqueakyToy]

@forest51690 I think people came along and only named "parts" of the world. Like,"These are the Great Smokey 'Mountains'" But later on each "mountain" got it's own name in the Smokey Mountains. Makes sense that the Bible would say "Mountains" of Ararat. But I can't be sure

[forest51690]

and in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat. And the waters continued to abate until the tenth month; in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

(Gen 8:4-5)
