RAZD at "101 evidences for a young age..."
Author: RAZD
Forum: Geology and the Great Flood
Thread: 101 evidences for a young age...
Message #: 40
​
Aren't these all the same issue of radioactive formation of C14 and background levels?
​
quote:
51. Carbon-14 in coal suggests ages of thousands of years and clearly contradict ages of millions of years.
52. Carbon-14 in oil again suggests ages of thousands, not millions, of years.
53. Carbon-14 in fossil wood also indicates ages of thousands, not millions, of years.
54. Carbon-14 in diamonds suggests ages of thousands, not billions, of years.
​
RAZD does a fine job, covering why you get or seem to get C14 in materials older than the range that can be C14 dated.

All I can say is, nice work!
​
I also encourage all to read all of that "Geologic Column" topic - Short and lots of good stuff, although #24 may be the best.

Dr Adequate, at "Where Faith Comes From in the "moderate" Christian religions"
Author: Dr Adequate
Forum: Faith and Belief
Thread: Where Faith Comes From in the "moderate" Christian religions
Message #: 18
​
The topic originator was looking for a source of Christian faith outside of the Bible.
​
I think that some of the Bible's content is an essential part of the root of Christian faith. Dr. Adequate's message would be the message I would write, if I could write a decent quality message.
​
His summary there:
​
In summary, it is perfectly possible to come to Christianity through the Bible without believing it to be flawless...

Also, Peg, at "Where Faith Comes From in the "moderate" Christian religions"

Thread: Where Faith Comes From in the "moderate" Christian religions

The topic starting message writes:
​
In a recent post I've thought about how "moderate" Christians come to their religion besides through the Bible (as to them it's not ALL literally true). If so, then on what do they base their beliefs? Any takers/thoughts?
​
Peg writes:
​
So besides the bible, faith/belief is a part of our nature. And how we choose to exercise that need is a very personal thing based on our perceptions,life experience and environment.
​
While Dr. Adequate (see previous POTM above) does "the rest of the story", Peg's message directly and specificly addresses the topic theme and the message 1 content.
