ZuneBoards - View Single Post - Serious questions for the Christians on this board

Don't know if anyone still reads this thread, but I'll post anyways;
I consider myself a Christian, yet despise modern Christianity for many of the same reasons that Atheists have. However I have enough personal proof that God exists and have made an attempt to make sure I am informed enough to make a civil argument to believe. And maybe that is what people need to have before they believe. When I meet Atheists or Satanists or anything other than what I know for truth, I don't automatically offer to pray for them, I save that for my personal prayer time. Most Christians believe that God put the unbeliever in front of them as a test of the great commission (Matthew 28:16-20), however, I think it is a test of greatest commandment - To "love thy neighbor as thyself". The unbeliever doesn't have to know that I pray for them.
But enough of that, let's try scientific evidence against evolution and billions of years of the earth forming:
"Physicist Robert Gentry has reported isolated radio halos of polonuim-214 in crystalline granite. The half-life of this element is 0.000164 seconds! To record the existence of this element in such short time span, the granite must be in crystalline state instantaneously. This runs counter to evolutionary estimates of 300 million years for granite to form."
"Dr. Thomas Barnes, Emeritus Professor of Physics at the University of Texas at El Paso, has published the definitive work in this field. Scientific observations since 1829 have shown that the earth's magnetic field has been measurably decaying at an exponential rate, demonstrating its half-life to be approximately 1,400 years. In practical application its strength 20,000 years ago would approximate that of a magnetic star. Under those conditions many of the atoms necessary for life processes could not form. These data demonstrate that earth's entire history is young, within a few thousand of years."
"Man-made artifacts - such as the hammer in Cretaceous rock, a human sandal print with trilobite in Cambrian rock, human footprints and a handprint in Cretaceous rock – point to the fact that all the supposed geologic periods actually occurred at the same time in the recent past."
"World population growth rate in recent times is about 2% per year. Practicable application of growth rate throughout human history would be about half that number. Wars, disease, famine, etc. have wiped out approximately one third of the population on average every 82 years. Starting with eight people, and applying these growth rates since the Flood of Noah's day (about 4500 years ago) would give a total human population at just under six billion people. However, application on an evolutionary time scale runs into major difficulties. Starting with one "couple" just 41,000 years ago would give us a total population of 2 x 10 to the power of 89. The universe does not have space to hold so many bodies."
