    Correct. And though I normally don't pull this card, in the interests of time I can't think of anything more I'd add than to the previous thread about this...which I'm too busy to look up right now.

    And to be perfectly honest; the more our civilization becomes smarter; we will learn ways to speed up processes that are unfathomable.

    The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that dinosaurs and light from other stars did exist.

    The second one was helping to convince scientists that the speed of light is actually that slow.

    Do you know that "dino bones" or fossils shouldn't have any DNA or even life or tissue fossilized with it. If it's millions of years old; even fossilized cannot have tissue.

    Have you ever seen a live dinosaur? Has anyone? There isn't any writings about them from the time. Therefore they must not exist!

    /sarcasm.
