Back and forth the arguments go, and where they stop nobody knows.
I don't close my mind to a young earth because we might find in the future that we missed something. So, today, I consider the earth old, tomorrow I may not.
Why aren't there more grand canyons? Why should there be?
Here, read all of this for shits and grins. |

Which set of interpretations best matches the data?

Unlike your religion where knowledge is granted once and remains static for ever.

All things are possible, only some things have evidence that shows they might be right. It's also possible the earth might be 10 seconds old. Or 10 minutes. But on the balance of probabilities it's not likely.

It's quite simple. What, in your opinion caused a "grand" canyon in only one place on earth? What was special about that particular place? The flood would not have cared too much about local anomalies and so why would it not have created canyons everywhere? What's *your* opinion on that?
Your Shits and giggles link says | Quote | | SUMMARY: Geologists admit that they do not know how the Grand Canyon formed, but they insist that the Colorado River somehow carved it and removed the evidence.1 |
That "1" leads us to the note | Quote | 1
“Though scientists have studied the canyon for more than 150 years, a definitive answer as to how or when the canyon formed eludes them. The one thing scientists do agree on is that the canyon was carved by the erosive power of the Colorado River, but the river itself has carried away the evidence of its earlier history.” Wayne Ranney, Carving the Grand Canyon: Evidence, Theories, and Mystery (Grand Canyon, Arizona: Grand Canyon Association, 2005), back cover. |
So on the basis of what the back of a single book says, http://www.creationscience.com says the goddit. We don't know alot of things about how the world works, but we don't say "goddit" to any of them, not unless you want to give up, go home and not make any more progress in science ever.
What do you make of the "Eve" information I gave you?

Bullshit. Read both arguments, decide which makes the most sense. Take it from there. Have you done that?

I also mentioned that He'd have to give me a thorough explanation as to *why* I must "eat human babies".
