  1. How is that possible since the universe is expanding at an accelerating speed?
  2. No. In most Islam countries or area's men don't shake hands to women...a rule like this is because of teachings out of the Quran. You imo can't respect a religion which suppresses women.
  3. Today I learned about the Honeycomb conjecture. The honeycomb conjecture states that a regular hexagonal grid or honeycomb is the best way to divide a surface into regions of equal area with the least total perimeter. Some examples: Chicken wire, Graphene, carbon nanotube, You can also see this in how cell membrane is ordered, soapbubbels, crystal structure, carbohydrates...
  4. Yes but what's the point of using a book that teaches good and bad behavior? Why not only good behavior?
  5. You claim the bible teaches good behavior...but it also teaches bad behavior...then what's the point of the bible?
  6. YEC's believe in Jesus Christ and don't decline the NT. NT writers often quoted the OT. http://www.bible.ca/b-canon-old-testament-quoted-by-jesus-and-apostles.htm The NT and OT are both part of the Christian bible.
  7. The problem is that the bad/negative stuff is also taught to people. It's irrelevant where the OT book comes from, many Christians think it's very significant. The OT has it's origins in a Hebrew book but atm it's part of a Christian book. NT writers often quoted the OT. http://www.bible.ca/b-canon-old-testament-quoted-by-jesus-and-apostles.htm Also, the first Christians were Jewish Christians, they arose from a Jewish movement.
  8. Why not? Have you heard about young earth creationists?
  9. What does one verse matter? There is a lot of disgusting stuff in the OT and for many Christians the OT is more significant then the NT. Do you deny this?
  10. You don't answer on statements that matter and much of what you say concerns personal opinions which you think are 'the truth'.
  11. You are a very dishonest person. This is what I said "Young earth creationists have probably a very different idea concerning the significance of the OT. The USA has probably more then 140 000 000 YEC...." =>Instead of reacting on the fact that YEC Christians have a different idea concerning the significance of the OT, you ask for evidence for the nr YEC in US and you refuse to react on the original subject...yet you claim I changed the goalpost.
  12. Yes and evidence concerns an interpretation of data. This interpretation is an understanding, formed by logic and math.
  13. There are many beliefs in the world of science which are based on an interpretation of data. Future evidence decides which beliefs become real science and which beliefs will be pushed to the background. When Einstein came up with relativity, it was not science the moment he wrote it down...it needed to be tested before it became 'science'.

    Lego

    There is an unofficial Stephen Hawking lego kit He was a recurring guest star in 'The Big Bang Theory'...they often made jokes about him and even made a remote controlled Stephen Hawking-toy. So I'm pretty sure Hawking likes this lego kit and does not find it offensive.
  15. I mentioned YEC's simply to show that Christians have different idea's concerning the significance of the OT and NT. You said this "But the signficance of the two Testaments, their relevance, their context, etc are quite different. It is entirely reasonable that you should be unaware of this since you have not studied them. However, it makes your pronouncements about them rather silly." =>You obviously think that your idea concerning the significance/relevance is the correct one. That's a mix of wishful thinking and ignorance.
  16. It's a Synthetic drug, if it chemically changes, it can't do its job anymore. You might like this video:
  17. Then try to leave a deep footprint so you will not be forgotten that fast
  18. I did not move the goalpost. You said that the significance of the OT and NT are quite different in which I answered that YEC's have a different view concerning the significance....for them the OT is more significant then the NT.
  19. That's true. It doesn't really matter but with the pre-adolescents the number would go well above 100 million.
  20. Can you give the example of how I moved the goalpost? So 38% of 324 mil is not 123 mil?
