How can people who wish to disbelieve God go to the farthest extremities of belief in making up always-changing doctrines, rather than just believing the evidence is a head-scratcher.....
@earlysda "Show some evidence." I just hafta roll my eyes whenever someone drags out that old copout. "Evidence" doesn't result in belief because if it did, no one would smoke. There's a mountain of evidence that smoking's a health hazard and can kill you, but people do it anyway because it's an act of the will. So it is with belief in God and His word: an act of the will. If "evidence" alone sufficed, those who yell "evidence" would believe based on the "evidence" that already exists.
@gregrutz Wrong on every count except the last. There have many theories come and gone to explain our origins. The latest flavor of "consensus think - damned the evidence" is called "Evolution". It is an impossibility, yet many have belief in it that theory which should shame those who profess to believe the word of God.
@earlysda '' a book that explains the evidence '' No it does not. Geologists find distinct layers of different kinds of rock in random order all over the world. Floods don' do that.
Paleontologist find fossils sorted simple to complex, floods don't do that.
Science explains what we find in nature, your 2000 year old book has been show to be wrong many times. Galileo was one of the first.
Theories constantly evolve to match the new evidence.
@gregrutz My belief system is based on a book that explains the evidence that we see all around us. Evolutionists' belief system is based on a multitude of books that are constantly "evolving" with little concern for the evidence.
@1965panther1965 The sea creatures grew in the ocean, then the whole area was uplifted by Plate Tectonics over millions of years. The top of the mountain IS an old sea bed thousands of feet think. There are not just shells on the top of the mountain. Read a Geology book to learn more.
@earlysda My 'Belief system' is called Science. The science of Geology shows the earth is millions of years old. They proved there was no global flood. Look at the evidence.
@wannawatchu66 Exactly right.

@earlysda Show some evidence, why is it impossible?

@ 1:50 geologic column... catistrophic HYDROLIC burial. WRONG !
The Coconino Sandstone in the Grand Canyon was deposited by WIND. Not all Sedimentary rock is from water !
@2:35 NO unconformity. THAT IS AN OUTRIGHT LIE. THERE ARE MANY UNCONFORMITIES IN THE Grand Canyon. It is the most studied rock on earth.

There is no evidence for a 'canopy of water'.
