In the arid, sun-soaked northwest corner of Australia, along the Tropic of Capricorn, the oldest face of Earth is exposed to the sky. Drive through the northern outback for a while, south of Port Hedlund on the coast, and you will come upon hills softened by time. They are part of a region called the Pilbara Craton, which formed about 3.5 billion years ago, when Earth was in its youth. View Quote The North American continent can't be over 10K years old in it's present configuration because of erosion clocks like Niagra falls, and yet this spot in Australia has a spot 3.5 billions years old, neither covered and buried like North America's fossils nor eroded away by 3.5 billion years worth of time. Only a Moran could believe this crap. |

Yep. Science is a liar sometimes.

You realize there are portions of the crust that have not been subject to subduction over the life of the planet, right ? The areas are limited. The Canadian shield is another area.

Ok, Kansas. I'll be sure to come to you if I need advice on growing corn or some shit.

Bugs Moran was a badass gangster.
Not sure what he believed in............. |

All I know is, that we as a race know very little about the planet we live on. It's all guesses based on tiny scraps of million+ year old evidence.
Shit, our tiny snapshot of climate data gives us no fucking idea of how the world has worked and how it will work in the future. |

Man Dragracer you really need to find some new sources and broaden your understanding of the natural world.
I mean you've got to really work at building a sufficiently small echo chamber to make a statement like you did in the OP. |

Pfff, Arizona was once a rainforest, and most of Texas was under water.

In before OP claims the earth is less than 5,000 years old and man and dinosaur lived together.

Ah, the age old game. "Who to believe on the intent"
todays topic is -fossils in Australia- our choice of who to believe A.) scientists on site with PHDs published in a scientific journal and years of expertise in their feild. B.) American farmer anonymously posting on a gun forum. really take your time on this one, might be the wild-card we've been waiting for when some random yokel disproves science...or maybe still believe the scientists. to the OP- what if, erosion is exactly why they're able to see those rocks now? As in. There was some shit on em, then rain and shit happened, and now you can see it! |

I could suggest you look at the erosion rates of the falls and where it started, how far it has come and what happens when it reaches Lake Ontario, but I doubt that you think about such things. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

The Theory of Evolution is like those stories they tell on COPS that always change whenever they show the suspect some evidence he didn't already know about
That is also true in this case, it is a story people tell to justify their unbelief. Romans 1 says the invisible things from the creation of the world are clearly seen being understood by the things that are made so that they are without excuse and 2 Peter 3 says that in the end times people will be willfully ignorant of creation and of the flood. |

Well, yeah. Did a soup of non-living organic chemicals suddenly become living bacteria by information coming from noise, of itself? That flies in the face of every observed and tested principle in the history of science, but otherwise intelligent people believe it, because they hate God. It's also the most circular argument ever. Basically, "It obviously happened, because life exists." How? "Well maybe this, or maybe this other way." And they start with a premise of, "There is no God, so it must have happened somehow else." Well where did you discover a priori there was no God?" Science! Ex nihilo nihil fit. |

Wow. OP has demonstrated a fascinating level of stupidity today by projecting preconceived (unfounded) ideas on other concepts he didn't want to believe and then displayed it all as if it was a fact. Impressive OP, impressive.

OP: Niagara Falls is eroding, therefore America is less than 10k years old, therefore evolution is fake and you're all sheeple.
