physical laws - do they change or remain constant?
I'd like to read more in our article about religious people (and scientists who are religious) who support the Old Earth concept - and, of course, their reasons for doing so. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 12:04, 15 September 2011 (EDT)

==The Circular argument issue==
Who assumes that physical laws such as the rate of [[radioactive decay]] have remained constant? Is this a matter of faith? Is it (considered) a proven fact? Radiation has only been studied for a century and a half. Can we extrapolate from recent experience to all of history? If so, on what basis? --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] <sup>[[User talk:Ed Poor|Talk]]</sup> 12:34, 15 September 2011 (EDT)
