If this event didn't happen, we would not have evolved. The Earth would
probably be better off, but no people.

They write this fiction as if they could know what happened and when.

Perhaps God works in mysterious ways.......


But if you accept that....there would be no need to join a cult.

No..it's not science. It's most certainly fiction; fairy tales for adults based on guesses about the past.

I'm old enough to remember LOTS of guesses that were put forth as "fact" and now have been discarded as worthless so I'm not impressed with these particular set of guesses by men who couldn't possibly know.

Darwinian biological evolution is not observational science, events in the past are not observable, testable, repeatable, falsifiable events.
Therefore, you cannot “empirically prove” them.

As I've said before both creationists and evolutionists have the same sets of data, the same evidence, and often the same techniques to examine their evidence. The different conclusions, therefore, must be based on presuppositions (or worldviews).

God does indeed work in mysterious ways but that doesn't change the fact that only He was there and these men are just guessing based on the presuppositions.


Not sure what the cult part of that comment was about...

People who believe in fairy tales and mythology as fact amaze me. Science exists, whether you believe in it or not.

rpavich Loc: West Virginia

Science most certainly exists!
I love science, in fact many of the giants of science were bible believers!
Copernicus, Bacon, Kepler, Galileo, Newton...well, its a really long list, I won’t bore you with it, point made.


Make no mistake, Christians neither reject actual science nor are afraid of it.

The fairy tale of evolution however, that’s another thing entirely.

RPAVICH is among those deniers of what is science, including evolution.

The KT boundary contains far more iridium than is found a layers below the KT boundary, and iridium is more bountiful in asteroids than on earth.

Dinosaurs may well have started to die out prior to the asteroid collision. There is evidence that they suffered from the same maladies such as viruses and bacteria, and they were also pestered by insects bearing those bacteria. However, the catastrophic impact of the asteroid sealed their fate. The article is very clear about dinosaur fossils existing below, but not above the KT boundary. And there are large numbers of paleontologists, chemists, physicists, biologists, etc., who are in agreement about the extinction.

RPAVICH completely misses the science of evolution. He still believes that man suddenly dropped out of the trees, walked upright, and started making tools; all on the same day. He can't get his head around the size and scope of evolutionary science.

If he believes in the Bible's mythological creation story, he has to agree that the earth is only around 5K years old.

One doesn't have to observe everything first hand to understand what happened millions of years ago.
