seeing the bible is not a scientific book, we should let scientists answer
Like all geosciences and all subfields of the geosciences that clearly show there was no global flood?
its more inconclusive then proven
Like chemistry and physics that clearly show radioactive decay has not changed over time?
it has not changed since science discovered how to use it
Like virtually all biosciences which clearly show common ancestry to all life?
Very debatable
So what you are saying is - in short - we should let the scientists except in cases where that proves to be inconvenient?
For example, look at Falsifying a young Universe. (re: Supernova 1987A) which explains how physics can conclude radioactive decay has been consistent for 170,000 years. But we shouldn't let the scientists answer on that one, right?
Oh well, I doubt anglagard will be terribly surprised by your answer.
