reveals that, typically, five times as many
soldiers died of disease than from wounds
sustained on the battlefield…Prior to the
medical advances of the past 130 years, doctors
did not know germs from human and animal
waste caused infections that number among the
greatest dangers to humanity” (Jeffrey, Grant R.,

“Is this Ken Ham? …As for the Job quote, there are no
foundations of the earth and the earth is not suspended in any
way. The Bible was wrong about that and wrong about a lot of
other matters of scientific concern. It has spiritual truths which
can't be touched by science, but it was written in a scientifically
illiterate time. We've advanced since then and have learned
how to investigate God's creation with the rational brains
bestowed us. Thus the great question …can Truth contradict
Truth. You seem to think so as you don't acknowledge the
evidence for an old earth. I really don't have much point except
to amuse myself at this time as I know I am talking to a young
earth creationist. I read most of the publications out of the
Institute for Creation Research, so I'm very aware of the
mental gymnastics you guys are capable of to fit a square peg
into a round hole…” (exchange with cshorey, Disqus Digest, ibtimes.com)

nothing came something absolutely
 Claiming non-living material
spawned life
 Claiming order, design, life,
complexity, intelligence memory, and
emotion evolved from a big bang

is resting upon physical foundations

Earth’s Water Cycle
 When was the Earth’s water cycle first discovered?
“According to historians, the water cycle was
discovered slowly over a period of painstaking years.
However, Bernard Palissy is credited in the 16th century
to be the scientist who compiled the theories that
existed for years and ‘wrote’ our modern hydrological
cycle. (http://www.iwaponline.com/ws/00701/0023/007010023.pdf)
But much to the surprise of others, according to
documents that date back to before the Common Era
(thousands of years), knowledge of the water cycle
existed then. These documents are found in the
manuscripts of the Bible…”
