Changes

:::::::::::::::Yes, all we know from our "supposed eyewitnesses" is what the Bible says about them, for these very men wrote down what God did...and God told them what to write.  God said He created the earth and everything in it in six days.  Your version of events went through various changes over a period of nearly two hundred years because your "emminent scientists" couldn't agree on how it was done.  What's the latest excuse today?  Is it life was created after lightning hit a swamp?  To me, the people you worship will come up with theory after theory after theory...as long as it doesn't include God.  You need to prove God doesn't exist first before you start telling the rest of mankind as to how life was created, especially when you have no absolute proof of that whatsoever.  [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] 11:05, 2 December 2007 (EST)

::::::::::::::::Not sure where to start with that.  First of all, you just hit on a key difference between science and religion.  I do not worship scientists, nor do I take what they say as fact without questioning it and deciding for myself first.  Second, I said nothing about the existence of non-existence of any god.  Third, I'm not telling mankind anything about how life was created, I am merely pointing out that PJR's own arguments can be applied against him.  Fourth, while I have no intention of trying to prove that god doesn't exist, I can assure you that any attempt to do so would fail because those who would need to be convinced would reject any evidence provided since it "goes against the bible" or whatever they like to call it.  Fifth, I doubt that anyone can prove definitely the existence of a god, which is why religions rely so much on faith.  In fact, now that you mentioned it...you say that "these very men wrote down what God did...and God told them what to write."  What real proof do you have for that, other than it says so in the bible?--[[User:BillOhannity|BillOhannity]] 11:20, 2 December 2007 (EST)

::::::::::Not sure why you insists so much on eyewitnesses. It is known that they are particularly reliable sources of evidence. Either way, in empirical science nothing is absolute certain. People who believe that a scientific theory is absolute certain can't be scientists. Only religion tries to give absolute certainties. You can't apply the mindset of religion to science.

::::::::::: In one sense, eyewitnesses are all that you have.  Even current scientific research of, for example, chemicals, is eyewitnesses (the scientists) reporting what they have seen (through the microscope).  For historical events, such as events in ancient Rome, eyewitnesses are virtually all we have to go on (or later accounts based on earlier accounts going back to the original witnesses; but even there the closer the accounts are to the original, the more accurate they are generally considered to be).  Archaeologists can glean some information from stone artifacts, pottery fragments, etc., but the best source of information is written documents, i.e. written accounts by eyewitnesses or based ultimately on eyewitness accounts.
