Yep! Yet many atheists I know, not saying you; use the abominations to morality by Christians as some argument of why the faith is wrong. Obviously they haven't observed the hundreds of millions that died for the sake of atheism.
No, it's really not. It has absolutely no bearing on the fact that there are dozens of lines of evidence discounting young earth arguments.
it's a damn good argument to sell YEC books to Christians who don't know the first thing about cosmology.
Depends... If the moment "few minutes, maybe longer" physics as we know it did not apply; then the natural occurrences wouldn't apply as well. It could be that the entire planet and all it's "physical form" like water, earth, air, etc. happened quicker than we could even record with the equipment we have today.
Question; in a few minutes; maybe a couple hours; the natural law of physics did not apply; what could manifest?
As speculative as singularity consisting without mass? Speculative as the first self replicating molecule manifested without another self replicating molecule?
If he's here, address him directly. Stop using the lame "some atheists I know" nonsense. There are wackos in every camp.
Science? I thought it must be observed before you can claim it's science. Never seen an observation like that.
That was really interesting! Thanks for the link! This is something that confuses me though. As he used the balloon, wouldn't the center of that balloon be the center? I mean as you insert air (hypothetical created space), the expanding point is the same?
you're drastically underestimating the scope of the evidence and the precision of scientific knowledge about this subject.
The nature of the universe and the laws that governed it within the first fraction of a second after the big bang is almost entirely speculation. Can you find a legitimate scientist who has ever said otherwise?
