If this is your god's justice I want no part in it.
doesnt it sound like a cult? illogic and irrational? you bet

Progressive argument???? You really have a way of making yourself look good even after being exposed for your errors and ignorance. That the Bible teaches a Flood that lasted at least a year is something that can be verified from Scripture, if you bothered to read it diligently and intelligently. Probably a reflection of stiff-neckedness?
Nope. Did not see the video on tree rings. You hardly reciprocate on the things I ask you to see or read anyway. But the point is, and you haven't answered me, how does tree rings tell you about the history of the world? It is simplistic to count rings and think you are counting age one ring at a time.

I told you I read what you linked. The "how" is in the video but your prejudice is stopping you. Or is it solipsism.... What was the point of that link? It does not prove otherwise that the tree rings showed the minimum age of the earth...

Exactly like you said... Those are only arguments, not evidences. Correction for your benefit and the discussion:Tree rings study has nothing to do with evolution... Either its correct as evidence or not. Still waiting for a logical argument from you.
It was still an indiscriminate and vicious mass killing. You have not addressed this.

Is your prejudice also stopping you from reading the links I provided?
Any age you think you can get from counting tree rings are based on ASSUMPTIONS made about how and what the rings meant and the rate of growth of such rings and also about conditions in the past. See also http://creation.com/swedish-trees-older-than-the-universe

Oh, then I just say that I have presented arguments AND evidences loh. Why take it as though it is either/or? Duh...
I never said tree rings has anything to do with evolution, did I? It was YOU who claimed that tree rings can tell us what happened in the history of the earth. I have yet to hear from you on that.

On what basis do you say it is unjust punishment of sinful men? As to animals, please do not confuse the issues. Animals do not sin as they are not created in God's image.
You want no part in God's justice? Too bad, we will all stand before God, whether you like it or not.

Fallacy of cavalier dismissal spotted!

Oh... I thought I told you I read your links? Still don't believe me? The link above commits a strawman. The tree in your link was not used in sampling and dating for the anchored chronology, and its age was not determined by trees rings. Misinterpretations much? Did not disprove the tree ring method....

Well I was deconstructing your construction of a strawman... AHA! You didn't see the educational video I linked previously. Or read anything about dendrochronology.... Yay for appeal to hypocrisy. I repeat, I read your links. Just couldn't stand the stench of fallacies in them.

You missed the point still, because you don't read the links. The issue is about the ASSUMPTIONS inherent in all dating methodology. It is not about disproving the tree ring method, but about being aware of the assumptions one brings to it.

Nope, I didn't see your video, but that's different from not reading anything about it. Anyhow accuse again? Of course, the challenge is on you to showcase the fallacies in my links. Allegations are cheap.

I said animals are sinless. Why should God kill them?
In reply to this post:
Originally posted by BroInChrist:It is irrational to speak of animals being sinless.
The land animals were killed alongside with the rest of sinful humanity, save those which were on the Ark. It shows that sin affects everything. The fossils that we see is a stark reminder of God's judgement on sin. Your concern should be more on the condition of man, rather than the animals. To focus on the animals is to miss the whole point.
First you said animals are sinless. Now you say God exercised his judgment and killed them just because "man's sin affects everything".
I am shocked you so readily admit the ludicrity and how ridiculous your God is.
Even more so the concept that he is a good and just God. Even if he exists, how are we to believe he is fair and keeps to his promises not to let us burn in hell?
Even if you say God exists, you can't answer this question if you have not died before.

The argument is still about tree rings straight forward. Not other dating methods, which I agree they have their limitations. Still waiting for a logical argument against tree rings....
Instead of arguing logically, you had to resort to red herring, appeal to spite(failed, neh neh) and inconsistent comparison.... Shame on you.

You read about it? Apparently only from the creationist's approved list of science books... cause you displayed misconception of the scientific method...

Genetic fallacy spotted.
Originally posted by BroInChrist:Genetic fallacy spotted.
Proven by your current lack of understanding of the subject, not by your origin. Learnurfallacies right... *facepalm*
Genetic fallacy – where a conclusion is suggested based solely on something or someone's origin rather than its current meaning or context.
