Every scientific generation since time immemorial must have thought how cutting edge they were (and they were in a sense) so I have a feeling “tip of the iceberg” type talk might be an understatement here.

You’re absolutely right. And yet, there are always idiots who cling to old myths because it makes them comfortable. Can you think of any groups of people propagating bronze age myths?

Have any of you read about skeletons and bones found that are very large, like giants.I have read about this quite abit like the remains found at table mountain in california.
But nothing is ever in the news or on the history channel about this.
hello everyone… I seem to be a bit confused with the tumult between Bill and Push… aren’t you both Creationists? I suppose I understand about the splitting of hairs with the “missing link” article, but aren’t you both on the same team, and therefore should not be so “on edge” with each other?
Unless of course there is an unknown to which I am mistaken with… (such as Push being a young-earther and Bill being an old-earther?)

If it were a myth, you’d be able to disprove it.
Good luck with that.[/quote]
By extension then, you would therefore bear the same responsibility.

The fact is that man made religion has been proven to be a farce. If you want to hold onto your childhood fairy tales, then I truly pity you.
Thank you for the clarification, Mr. Push. I certainly enjoy a good “shoot-out” with my brothers in the Faith… So what’s up with Makavali? I don’t know whether to eviscerate his sophomoric ideas or to just pray and have the Spirit of God deal with him…

I believe I will just pray for Makavali… the evisceration can come at another time when “time” is not an issue.
And I will leave you with this to ponder:
“The fool hath said in his heart: ‘There is no God’.” <The Book of Psalms 53:1>
… and this:
The Lord Jesus Christ speaking:
“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” <The Gospel According to Saint Matthew 11:28>
AND
for some incite into the fusing of science and Faith, I suggest you visit reasons.org. You will read the works of some of the smartest Christian astrophysicists and biologists alive on the planet today… think of the intellect of Bill Roberts on steroids and you will get the picture…
“A prehistoric town that had remained untouched beneath the ground near Syria for 6,000 years is now revealing clues about the first cities in the Middle East prior to the invention of the wheel.”
