A New Creationist Cosmology: achronicity
8 Replies
Wow, I just saw the new developments to creationist cosmology from the ICR website. That article can be found here: http://www.icr.org/article/5686/ The…Continue

Am I a Pantheist?
238 Replies
I happen to believe that the universe can not exist separate from God as God is omni-present and holds the universe together. I do not believe that the universe is all there is to God but I also do…Continue

Why do you choose to be an atheist?
172 Replies
I have come to believe that atheism is a choice and not a deterministic result of following science or going "where the evidence leads." So, for the atheists or agnostics perusing this forum, why…Continue

Who are we? Spirit/Soul/Body
39 Replies
I grew up hearing the addage, "We are a spirit, we have a soul, and we live in a body." I always believed our true self was a spirit being and we had a brain which stored memories, knowledge, and…Continue

Alexander Martin replied to Glenn Graham's discussion 'According to Scripture - What is 'eternity'?'
I know what scripture says. You seem to be reading a different book though. It's why I asked.
Alexander Martin replied to Glenn Graham's discussion 'Why[and when] did Adam name the animals?'
Were we supposed to just agree with you without testing the things you say? Truth can stand up to scrutiny. You've failed to produce anything resembling a defense. You just insist we take your word for it.
Alexander Martin replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
Look at that. You're actually right about something. It's an interpretation. It seems pretty clear from my angle.
Margaret replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
Is that a fact?
Oh no, sorry, there's no such thing.
Alexander Martin replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
Who sounds bitter because they finally realize they've just been owned? I think we're done here Magaret. Thanks for playing.
Margaret replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
I love the idea of being lectured at by someone who failed his degree.
Who says that there is no such thing as a fact.
Who spends months explaining to me that theory always precedes observation, then carefully explains how the theory was derived…
Alexander Martin replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
The ansswer to your dilema is simple Magaret. If you disagree with my "interpretation" of Popper or Kuhn all you have to do is tell me ewhere I misinterpret them or simply show where their argument is invalid.
You also create a…
Margaret replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
So your interpretation of someone else's interpretation of the scientific method is supposed to have some sort of validity?
You think that just because you have read and partially understood the first few pages of a book with an…
Alexander Martin replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
That's just it, it's not baseless. The basis for the claim is Karl Popper and Thomas Kuhn. I use capital letters to help catch your eye so that you actually read it as my experience with you is that you are skilled at glossing over an…
Margaret replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
Alexander, does your claim count double because you used upper case?
Or is that your standard response when you're losing an argument?
If I reply in bold upper case, does that trump your upper case?
Even you must be aware that your claim cannot…
Alexander Martin replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
Magaret, your example is truly irrelevant. It's equivalent to saying that Copernicus saw an apple fall before Newton and Aristotle saw an apple fall before either of them therefore observations precede theory. It's irrelevant whether…
Margaret replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
Alexander, I don't have your talent for stringing lots of long words into meaningless sentences, so let me illustrate with an example.
When I say that Brahe's observations preceded Kepler's theory, that is a documented fact.
When…
Margaret replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
How about the fact that Brahe's observations preceded Kepler's theory?
Pretty straightforward, an undeniable fact, a fact that destroys your ridiculous position, a fact that you repeatedly ignore.
Simply repeating "theory before…
Alexander Martin replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
Well, at least you picked up on the heliofocal terminology I introduced to you. I suppose I can be happy on that front.
Question for you, what facts am I not figuring in? You haven't presented any, only explained to me that your…
Margaret replied to Alexander Martin's discussion 'What is Science?'
Alexander, it comes as no surprise at all that you can completely fail in your self-appointed task, yet still write a post that makes it sound as though you have succeeded. But as we've noted before, facts do not really figure in your view of…

I live at 101st and Sheridan, so a few miles west of Brokan Arrow. In what graduate program are you studying? I noticed way back in July 2010 you asked question about consistency of radioactive dating methods, or wether it was a myth. My graduate program was in geochemistry, can offer some friendly clarification. Ken

Jesse K. Hyder said… - Why? The answer I gave at the end of my comment was that
I wanted to remind myself and others that the purpose of such a forum as this is to seek the truth and that in doing so we need to work together in unity. It is simply a statement of the foundation rules that I attempt to follow. It would be meaningless to do anything but seek the truth and we will glorify the Lord in our unity. Thanks for agreeing with me. -:)

- Hi Alexander,
Working together in unity we can uplift each other and work together to reach the world with the truth, the Gospel of Christ.
A good starting place is John 8:32 "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." The world of course asks "What is truth?" (John 18:38) The answer is given in John 17:17 "... Your word is truth"
Concerning unity Jesus says in John 17:21 "... that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You, that they also may be one in us, that the world may believe that You sent Me."
I say the above to remind myself that as Christians we start with a recognition of the authority of the Scriptures and that we as brothers and sisters in Christ work together in unity that the world might believe and accept the Truth.

If you liked that presentation, you should check out my weekly radio program, Sagadii Radio. It's completely free in mp3 download format. The website is on my profile.
