God caused terrible earth quakes at the time of pelegs.JOB,ISAiAH,PROVERBS,PSALM told about earth quakes.
How does that put dinosaur footprints at multiple layers?
All coincidentally at the same layers that the dino fossils are found? And the dino nests, eggs, their teeth marks in the fossils of their victims?

So if it was left to them to discover, why would there be any advanced science in the books?

By terms, that could fit in the time.More dicoveries more terms,which old don't have.

You're not making sense.
God gave them advanced science couched in local vocabulary, so that they could go out and discover the advanced words for science they already had?

Why not just give them the vocabulary at the same time?

Thus further proving my thesis.

The science you accept, you find bible verse to support.
The science you don't accept, you find bible verse to oppose.

Really, if you'd just come to understand the science, FIRST, then read the Books, it will all become clear

You know I have understanding in what you called science,promise.We will not believe in God if we won't understand science. Promise I am better than you in understanding of science.

I don't know that. You appear to have a limited understanding of science. Or at least, you filter the science.

That's odd. Science is neutral on the subject of any deity.

I really have to doubt it. I don't think you really understand even your litany. Check it out:

Quote:
As for the Grand Canyon, how does rapidly moving water carve something that meanders like this?
Rapidly??? No, a rain for for 40 days and night could make it.
For 40 days/nights of rain to carve the grand canyon, wouldn't the earth it's carved out of have to have been laid down BEFORE the Rain started to fall?
Meaning that the strata were in place before the Flood, not laid down by it.

I always think about what you says, if that's what you mean. But i don't accept your premise, thus my results may differ.

No, he compares taking possession of all the things on the earth to gathering eggs. This passage says nothing about the shape of the planet.
